Exposed Vocals: So tell us your story. Where did you grow up? What made you decide to become an artist?
Ski: I grew up in Memphis TN, me and my mom used to sing Luther Vandross all the time when I was little like I remember I would put on a full show to my mom and whoever was around at the time. It was fun to me, I probably was 5 or 6 but after I performed in my school’s play that was when I was sure this is something I wanted to do forever now my part wasn’t huge or anything but it was enough to me.
Exposed Vocals: Since everyone was a start-up once, can you give any smaller or local bands or artists looking to get gigs and airplay some tips?
Ski: You know I’m still looking into that but what I’ve recently found out is that having relationships and supporting Dj’s will open up doors for you sometimes
