If you’re uninspired, it’s your fault. As<br />
an artist we have to keep a sense of<br />
uncertainty. That’s how we adapt. Grow.<br />
Find.<br />
Above all, never, never stop having fun.<br />
You’ve performed on many prestigious<br />
occasions and with some fantastic<br />
duetting partners (ie with Nicole<br />
Scherzinger at Royal Variety<br />
performance). From your career so far,<br />
is there a particular highlight that stands<br />
out?<br />
Working with Nicole was certainly a<br />
highlight.<br />
Singing for Her Majesty The Queen and<br />
Prince Charles at Windsor castle was quite<br />
the night. It was surreal chatting with them<br />
afterwards about food and tv shows.<br />
Performing in the 25th Anniversary of The<br />
Phantom of The Opera and Les Miserables<br />
as The Phantom and Enjolras, respectively<br />
was a huge honour.<br />
melody. It just made me want to sing it.<br />
It made me think about relationships and<br />
connections.<br />
How ‘noise’ has distanced us from what’s<br />
important. This was the narrative going<br />
through my mind when I was hearing it<br />
mind you.<br />
It made me think about family and friends.<br />
So, I wanted to sing this with my friends.<br />
So we did.<br />
Our tours are always about connection<br />
and relationships. We are a tight group. A<br />
family.<br />
You will see that on stage and you will hear<br />
in our music and our interpretations of<br />
these brilliant songs.<br />
Whats the biggest difference for you<br />
when performing in a production to your<br />
own headline show?<br />
My own shows are a lot harder to be<br />
honest.<br />
Originating the Phantom in Love Never<br />
Dies was a dream.<br />
Performing on NYE with The Avett Brothers<br />
in North Carolina was a huge moment for<br />
me as well.<br />
Your tour is named ‘From Now On’, after<br />
your cover of the track from The Greatest<br />
Showman. What made you want to cover<br />
this track in particular?<br />
When I heard it I loved the lyrics and the<br />
It takes a lot more out of me physically<br />
and vocally. But it’s worth it. There’s no<br />
character to hide behind. That took a while<br />
to get comfortable with.<br />
To be happy in my own ‘costume’ so to<br />
speak.<br />
I also like the challenge of making these<br />
songs from the shows live out side of the<br />
story. We present these songs separate<br />
from the shows but not without the drama.<br />
They are still great stories.<br />
