Kortland has a new song out, The Limit, along with a several more to be released during the pandemic. Kortland stems from a musical family but has always known music was his passion and calling. He often hears a melody in his head, and then writes the lyrics to fit within the rhythm and beat of the song.

Beautiful aspect of music is that it amplifies the mood you are in and intensifies your current environment through an emotional experience. Listening to Kortland’s music will transport you through R/B Soul music, which enhances your emotions from the rhythm and vocals. 

To know if you are made for or cutout for this industry, Kortland eloquently mentions you need passion to see if you truly want to be a musical artist, or even an actor. Ask the right questions from a mentor to prepare you for your dreams and start networking to find the right connection to set you up for success. Simply put, immerse yourself in whatever you feel passionate about to see if you truly want to be there.

Kortland touches on using your gifts wisely as you navigate through your career. This has helped Kortland land a role in the musical Cats, where he played Old Deuteronomy.
