Quotes

“I have been gigging around Glasgow and Edinburgh since I was 12. I played in pubs at that age, even though I obviously was too young to be in them. So I used to hide in bathrooms, come out and play my set, then get the hell out as quickly as possible.”

“When I was about 9, my brother, who’s six years older than me, started getting guitar lessons, and I wouldn’t say that it inspired me to pick up an instrument: it was more me being like, ‘Well, if he’s getting guitar lessons, then so am I. I’m not missing out,’ type of thing.”

“When I first started, they were like, ‘Is there anybody that you like that you want to work with, and we’ll see what we can do?’ And I went, ‘I like Malay,’ who’s Frank Ocean‘s producer, and they were like, ‘Not going to happen.’ It did seem so, like, high-in-the-sky sort of thing. It still does, that it happened.”

“I remember hearing people like Joe Cocker, Fleetwood Mac, and Elvis. My parents were big fans of them, and they were the early seeds. My brother was more into Slipknot, and I still listen to them, too, but it wasn’t until I listened to Paolo Nutini that it really clicked.”

“I was doing a wee gig at the Edinburgh Fringe, and while I was walking down to the show from the train station, someone stopped and asked if they could get a picture with me. This was about six months before I released my first single as well, so my response was, ‘Are you sure?”
