Interview:

Music is a transcendent language; in its purest form, it is the voice of what’s held within. I’m not a religious person, and the term “spirituality” tends to imply religion, but it can also describe deeply personal anchors in a person’s life, like music. Music affects the subconscious and can cause profound changes in a person, much like a spiritual awakening. I’ve taught guitar lessons for a few years now, and every now and then I meet a person who takes to learning music like I did, like finding the key to the inner universe, and it appears to be a revelation to the learner, like finding another dimension of themselves. Music is a place to find strength. Much as some people believe their world is guided by the supernatural, be it angels, ancestors, or ghosts, I seek the presence of a favourite piece of music, conjured by pressing the play button.
