*Warning: Cuss words included

When did you first realize that you wanted to start a music career?

R: “From a young age, it has always been a dream! I started to take it more seriously as I got older and once I figured out how to release music on my own before moving to LA.”

Tell us about your amazing new single “Fucked Up Summer.” 

R: “I love this song! I wrote it a few years back, and it’s heavily inspired by Halsey. This song has so much energy, and it feels like a great summer anthem, so I hope people hear that too!”

Can you tell us anything about your upcoming EP’ Golden Age”? 

R: “This EP has a lot more upbeat songs on it than my last. I am always experimenting with production, and I think you’ll hear more of that on this EP which I’m excited about. I also think performing these songs will be super fun.”

What is your songwriting process usually like? 

R: “It honestly depends on the day! I have to take space from some songs before going back to finish them. But others, like “Golden Age,” are written quickly. I remember writing that one with Justin Gammella and David Arkwright in less than a couple of hours. Sometimes you get into a flow with other writers, and when that happens, it usually ends up being a special song.”

Have you seen a difference between the music scenes in LA from Boston? 

R: “In writing and collaborating, I mostly work with people on the west coast! I haven’t spent a lot of time on the east coast in a long time, so it’s hard to compare. I love going to shows in LA because I usually bump into a million people that I know in the music industry. It feels like a supportive and encouraging environment, especially when some of your friends are fellow artists!”

If you got to collab with any artist, who would it be and why? 

R: “Probably LANY! I’ve always been a fan and I’d love to write a ballad with them.”

What has been your reaction to receiving over 30 Million streams on your music?

R: “I feel like my brain can’t process how many people that is!! I am very grateful to have such loyal fans, especially since I haven’t been able to tour during the pandemic. It feels like we’re building something cool together, and I can’t wait to tour.”

When not working on music, what are some of your favorite things to do? 

R: “Right now, I am listening to a lot of podcasts. I love to hang out with friends, go to the beach, or hang out at the park and read. I am much more of a homebody than I thought after being stuck at home these last couple of years.”

What are some of your biggest goals for your music career? Maybe a world tour? 

R: “Touring would be a dream come true! I’d love to tour and travel the world. It definitely would be a crazy experience.”
Where can we follow your amazing journey? 

R: “Online! I am on Instagram and Tik Tok; please follow along, you might hear some unreleased music if you do.”
