⚡️ The story behind “Getcha,” “For Nothing,” and “Keep The Pack”

⚡️ Singing and playing guitar at the same time and finding his voice

⚡️ His earliest influences, vinyl records, and falling in love with rock through his father

⚡️ Why rock music represents freedom, creatively and emotionally

⚡️ Growing alongside his bandmates while each explores their own solo path

⚡️ What he’d tell the younger version of himself who was just trying to be seen

⚡️ What he hopes fans feel when they hear Masquerade live for the first time
