We had the good fortune of connecting with Sorry X and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Sorry, what is the most important factor behind your success?
The most important factor to me is that I’m a forward thinker. I’m constantly daydreaming and I’m usually quite a few steps ahead when it comes to my music plans. I like to push the boundaries of music and my upcoming songs in the next year are definitely more experimental but in a really cool way that I think will intrigue the right listeners.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
Time flies and I often have to remind myself that just about 4 years ago I started recording myself singing on YouTube beats with an $80 microphone and here I am now, getting to perform and write with some of my favorite bands and enjoying every moment. Not a single thing about this journey has been easy I must say. The life of an independent artist is truly tough, but also can become the most rewarding in the end. I’ve learned so incredibly much about myself, what type of music I want to make, who I want my music to reach, I’ve gotten to see more of the world too. The biggest lesson I would say for any aspiring artists is that you have to realize even as an artist that you are running a business and you’ve have to learn a whole lot about how to do taxes, profit/margins, staying organized and more.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I love downtown Phoenix for the bar scene, Pemberton is really cool. The Rebel Lounge is my favorite music venue 😉 and I LOVE Sedona!

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I have a lot of people to thank! I always have to shoutout my awesome team of producers/engineers, videographers, and musicians that have helped me keep this project going and believe in my potential and also to the fans. I couldn’t do it without you <3
