After experiencing hostile segregation during a trip to Washington D.C., Lead Belly did just what a great blues singer would do: wrote a song about it. Like an early ancestor to viral media, it spread awareness of the privileged elite and their racist practices. Due to the song's politica...
I knew I did, I sort of had to prove that to them. Really, truly, the best thing that ever happened to me was not making it for so long. I was 27 the first time I ever felt like I had real success, and I had become who I was going to be as a man. I was so ...

OK, so I find this very inspiring. So after this happens, you change your life pretty drastically and enrol in a conservatory and move to Georgia — the country of Georgia. What did it feel like to kind of just jump back in to piano after so long? Like, were you able to just get ...
