I’ll be celebrating New Zealand Music Month (NZMM) by:
Releasing new sparkly single music video ‘ What Would Dolly Do’, on the 1st of May and Going on my first national Tour kicking off at the end of the Month!
NZMM is important to me because:
It’s such a great reminder of how our country comes together to celebrate our local art and talent. We need this support, we need this highlight and I think it helps us all work better together.
My favourite thing about the New Zealand music scene is:
The openness and willingness to share, you can literally DM anyone a question and they will respond and give you advice, it’s such a great support network.

“I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” - Taylor Swift.

Their confidence and self-awareness.
If I could give my teenage self one bit of advice, what would it be:
You are enough, you are worthy, and you don’t need other approval, be unapologetically you.

To be a full time performing and recording artist.
