HELLO FROM ICELAND 🇮🇸!!!!!!! I can’t believe I’m here… it’s always been a dream of mine since 2015 to visit this country and see the beauty. First impressions… this place feels like another planet and everywhere feels like GAME OF THRONES haha!!!!! more photos and videos coming your way. LET THE ADVENTURE CONTINUE 😎😎😎!!!!!!!!!!!
In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of one of my most personal pieces. From the first idea at the piano to the final composition, I break down the creative process, the emotions, and the story that shaped ICARUS!
157 shows, 108 cities, 34 countries, and 5 continents… after two and a half years, what seemed like a "never ending" tour has finally come to an end. WE DID IT!!!! This tour has taught me so much.
When I was on the road, I sometimes felt like I was in a dream, because as a kid practicing piano every day, these very moments on tour were exactly what I hoped to achieve one day. It’s insane thinking back on all the memories.. some of the ones that stand out: seeing kangaroos in Brisbane, climbing the Great Wall in Beijing, lasagna in Bologna, 9pm walks in Kyoto, playing the Troubadour in LA, hometown show in Toronto with my friends and family.. if I listed everything it would exceed the word count allowed haha, but life is truly a rollercoaster and insanely unpredictable.
The most valuable lesson I’ve learned is that beauty is everywhere around us, both big and small. My music career will always be most important, but what I know now is that work and priorities should never mask the beauty around us and take away living.
To my incredible team, my success is your success, and this achievement belongs to all of us! To my incredibly hardworking agent, Clotaire, for taking a chance on me, to my longtime friend and manager, Matt, for all the crazy adventures we’ve been on since 2014. To Tom for being with me since the beginning, to Ian for all the great conversations, and lastly to my incredible label for showing constant support no matter which country I visit, thank you thank you thank you!
What I will treasure most is meeting my audience. I feel lucky I had the opportunity to meet so many of you, speak with some of you, and hear your stories. I say this at the end of every show but I’ll share it again because it’s true for me: as much as my music may inspire you, you all inspire me more than you know. You all mean more to me than words or music can describe!
I will take a break now from performing, but when I am ready to come back on stage, you all will be the first to know! The next chapter begins now. See you all soon and thank you all a million times over!!!
