      More like Coldplay trying to cover Nirvana, only he has a better voice than Chris Martin sounds terrific on the screams. That said bro is super talented. Just wish he didn't do the Indie voice, and just full out embraced his own voice. Too many people conform to that.

      Took my daughter to city to see and donate to all our local buskers since she was 2 yrs old.
      She's in her 20's now and played drums since she was 10. She plays in a band just for fun and loves it. We also still go out to see our buskers every chance we get.
      She always gives me a peck on the cheek and thanks me for introducing her to music. For me as a parent music appreciation is important. It taps into your soul and can save your life.

Being a metal head I would loove you to hear you sing anything by sleep token, sorry I know you’re not a juke box taking requests it was just a wish spoken out loud, so to speak! Hope you’re doing well. 🥰👍

I feel so blessed that I am able to experience that sensation again with a new genre and a new icon. I can't wait to hear and see all the amazing things Ren will accomplish.
