What makes you the Next Music Star?

I think what makes us unique is our drive to be authentic. We're not afraid to be raw or real. In a time where everything is very polished and Inundated with artificial intelligence, we want to make sure that what we do is felt and seen as true to life!

What do you love about music and performing?

Music is a chance to express yourself and convey our feelings into Something an audience can relate to even without having to say it directly. Music is a moode, lyrics are an idea. The two together have the ability to reach people deep down, and show them that they're not the only ones feeling what they're feeling. We're here to inspire and show that it is possible to withstand emotional adversity; that pride and perseverance are worth the struggle.

Who are your biggest music inspirations and dream collaborators?

Anything from Enya and Alanis Morissette to Linkin Park, Tool or Flyleaf. We're here for it all! From heavy and emotional to light and groovey! Of course, we would love a chance to be produced by one of the Greats! Rick Rubin, Butch Vig or Steve Albini to name just a few. Other artists for collaboration would include Muse, The killers, Bring me the Horizon and Evanescence!

What would you do with the $10,000 Grand Prize?

We would immediately put it back into the band account and use the majority for the next EP or LP!
