and um so how did you get in the country music because I know that you got a mentorship at 18 with Dolly Parton's manager how did that come about

well I was really raised on like very southern music my granddad was um a rock and roll musician and Like my dad also played with him.

So the first music I was ever playing was like a three chord blues.

Like Johnny Big Good was the first thing I ever sang.

And so I, that was like how I was taught to play.

And so that was like really my early experience of music.

And then obviously growing up in the UK and, there wasn't much country only up until like very recently, right? So like as a teenager, like I was the only one really listening to country.

Was that always something that you wanted to do with this EP, is have a, like, write on everything?
