THOM LAFOND In A Hurry When did you first get into music? Age 9, I began teaching myself Guitar & Drums. I’m 30 now. Who or What inspired you to pursue a career in music? It was an obsession from day one. I began recording myself and gigging at age 13. How has your music evolved since you first began creating music? It has turned away from guitar oriented music and more towards songwriting & production. If you were forced to choose only one, which emotion, more than any other drives you to stay in this tough business? Is it joy, anger, desire, passion or pride and why? Passion. I love music, and there is nothing that could sway me away from the sounds. Which ingredient do you think makes you special and unique as a performing artist in an industry overflowing with new faces and ideas? I am writing songs and recording everyday. I am a Videographer as well, and this year I’ve added 100 self-produced videos to my YouTube Channel and Socials. My goal is to tell a story with music. That story is my own thread & my own ingredients. I Produce my music from the ground up, by laying in my own drums, and adding layers and musicians in the direction my ear is leading me.
