Hoe is je passie voor muziek ontstaan? Wie zijn je idolen?

I began my career as a professional dancer. I began my singing career in 2017, I was 23, this was when I released my first single ‘Renovate’ in collaboration with XY LATU, winner of X factor Australia. However after this release I took a step back from the industry. This year ive decided to release “Turn Off The Lights” and will be following with a whole album in the coming months! I decided I wanted to give my music career my all and see where it takes me! I love creating music and hopefully it will inspire others I was raised a very strict catholic so I always sang at Sunday mass! During my teens I received a scholarship to the countries top full time performing arts school where I completed my diploma of musical theatre. I always loved music and rhythm I loved to dance! I love anything to do with the music industry. I love to create and edit videos and film clips also. As im unsigned I direct, create, edit & colour grade my own music clips as I love the creative freedom. I also still love dancing and go to weekly classes my idols are: Dua Lipa Lady Gaga Rihanna Ariana Grande Beyonce Id love to see my song/s on the charts, or randomly be at the super market and hear my song on the radio. The would seriously be a huge achievement!

Wat voor soort muziek maak je?

I feel my voice is a mix between Dua Lipa and Rita Ora. I love pop and feel good music as well as a bit of RnB :) my new album is also going to have a mix of a few romantic Ballards.

Wat is voor jou het belangrijkste nummer? Welke boodschap wil je overbrengen aan de luisteraar?

I hope they enjoy my vibes and can enjoy the song. I hope it makes them dance, maybe even create a couple of tiktoks to the chorus. I can defiantly see a viral trend transition on “turn off the lights”

Waarom zou een luisteraar die jou niet kent naar je muziek luisteren?

I try and stay as real as possible. I also document my music journey on my instrgram which people find interesting the behind the scenes of the music industry. I believe you must always follow your gut. This music industry is very cut throat and people will always try and pull you down. You will always have people talking negatively about your work. You can’t let it get to you. If you have a vision and dream just go for it!

Wat zijn je toekomstige projecten? Waar zie je jezelf over 5 jaar?

After ‘Turn Off The Lights” I will be releasing an album! It will be releasing in the coming months! This is something ive been working on for over 1 year and is super super close to my heart. Id love to see my song/s on the charts, or randomly be at the super market and hear my song on the radio. The would seriously be a huge achievement!

Vertel onze lezers een grappige gebeurtenis in je carrière als artiest.

the funniest moment to be completely honest is with my tiktok account. I made tiktok as a joke and was just posting stupid stuff, I never thought anyone would see it, and now I have over 1 million followers! its the craziest thing. its like a hole different side of me people normally wouldn’t see on my music career accounts. there was this one video I made that the media picked up, it involved McDonalds. I cant explain, just watch! Watch on TikTok
