“WTFIW…what does that mean to me?
Freedom of expression,
Freedom to be myself and push others to do the same.
My music selection reflects the festival experience: deep, dark and melodic bass-focused lows punctuated with flowing vocals.
Festivals unlock the depths of people’s souls and my music is the key to unlock surreal experiences.”
