Musical guilty pleasure: I went through an ’80’s rock phase a few years ago, a lot of Bon Jovi and Guns ’n Roses. I have since recovered, but sometimes catch myself singing along if it comes on!
Formative musical experience: Sitting in front of Dad’s stereo and CD cabinet, playing through everything inside over and over after school, and wishing I could do what these artists did - make some kind of change in people’s lives through music.
