When did you first decide that you wanted to be a musician?

I first decided my destiny when I was about three years old and that was 50 years ago! [Time sure flies when you are having fun and it hasn't stopped yet, now has it?]

What was your first music production (recording, performance?

I played my "original" piano piece "Ballet Dancers" in front of a whole school assembly when I was five.

How about a memorable moment?

My most recent memorable moment was playing at a free benefit gig and I completely nailed the whole performance [if I don't mind saying so myself]. I knew it was pretty good and then I saw a video and was humbled by my own playing, ya know?

Could you please tell us about your process or day?

I work on it overnight in dreams and wake up ready to play! [ So, doesn't that mean that basically the process never ends and there is no such thing as the limitation of a day or 24 hours. Music continues and it flows in and through us -Deborah E of ScatnStyle ]

What are your plans in the future?

I am working on new songs for this year's release. I want to tour more and maybe even go to Brazil!
