Comfy, warm, simple.

What music defines the teenage you?
A mixture of Radiohead, The Prodigy and Blur.
Your greatest unsung hero or heroine in music?
This is hard to answer but I could say Dave Gahan for surviving hard times while kicking it on stage and still keeping up the awesome work.
You can make a record with anyone from history?
Although I’m not a musician, I would love to come together and create something with Damon Albarn. He’s versatile, creative and seems to be full of exciting ideas.
