Montreal raised me, Toronto made me, and LA paid me. I grew up in a small town in Montreal. I got bullied when I was really young and so gravitated towards music. It gave me a purpose and an identity. I used to just stay in my room and make music probably because I was too anxious to leave the house. Music has been a huge part of my life since I was born. My mom being a singer and my dad being in art and just having killer taste. There were always records playing in the house and we had a piano and guitars. I started writing songs really young. I was a hip hop kid so I’d record myself on a tape recorder trying to rap. Slowly moved on to get recording software and just make beats and write songs. It’s all I did. When I got older, I started going to Toronto a lot. I eventually made the move out there which was a very hard but defining time in my life. I was pretty lost and so the years I was there it was a lot of soul searching. I was also back and forth to LA around this time. Leaving for 2 – 3 months at a time just making music with people. Super broke, couch surfing. Then I made the move to LA and it’s been going ever since.
