If your music were a vehicle, what kind of vehicle would it be?

"A convertible – stylish, fun, and perfect for an open-road adventure."

When did you write your first song? What was its name?

"I wrote my first song when I was nine years old. It was called “What Time Is It?” (“Paljon kello on?”). I might still have some notes from it."

Have you ever had a crush on a pop star or a celebrity? If so, who was the first one?

"Yes, many times! The first one was Justin Bieber."

What is the first pop song you remember liking?

"Fifteen by Taylor Swift. I was eight years old, and even though I don’t listen to her as much now, that song stuck with me."

Party all night or sleep all night? Why?

"Sleep all night. If I party, the next day is ruined. I’m a morning person, so I love going to bed early and waking up refreshed."

What song do you sing at karaoke?

Name a musician that you would like to sing or play on your record. Why?

"Right now, I’m really into Oklou, a French artist who feels fresh and inspiring to me.
Alternatively, Benny Bellson would be amazing too."
