APRIL <strong>2018</strong> | ISSUE #66<br />

I try to always have my roots in my music,<br />

I always like to throw a lot of subtle Irish<br />

poetry into my songs, I think it’s important. I<br />

represent my country.<br />

R: How did you come up with the name Rejjie<br />

Snow and why?<br />

My little brother gave it to me, we came up<br />

with Rejjie and he used to call me ‘Snow’ as a<br />

kid, I don’t know why but yeah it stuck.<br />

R: You’ve just released your debut album<br />

DEAR ANNIE, which I have been listening<br />

to and absolutely love. Can you tell us more<br />

about it? Who is Annie?<br />

Thank you, Annie is a fictional character and<br />

throughout the whole album I am just talking<br />

to this person in my head, kind of in a diary<br />

setting, like Dear Annie… Dear Diary, that<br />

sort of thing. I really wanted to make it an<br />

enjoyable listen.<br />

R: You have a number of collaborators on<br />

the album – was it fun to work with different<br />

people?<br />

Yeah it was fun especially with the Grammywinning<br />

producer Rahki, for him to do my<br />

album was really great. I really enjoyed the<br />

female voices on there.<br />

R: Off the back of this, you are now<br />

embarking on a massive European tour and<br />

you’re even stopping by us in Norwich and<br />

Cambridge in <strong>April</strong> what can we expect?<br />

Lots of lights and visual this time, overall I<br />

think it will be a great experience, almost like<br />

going to see a movie, I want to capture the<br />

same experience in the show, so hopefully<br />

people will enjoy it.<br />

R: Do you enjoy being on tour?<br />

I hate it [laughs] I love just playing my shows<br />

but everything else I hate, travelling and<br />

getting out of a routine. It can be tough.<br />

R: So after the tour what is next for Rejjie<br />

Snow?<br />

I am working on a short film, so I am going to<br />

produce and direct that.<br />

R: Well thanks so much for your time<br />

Rejjie and best of luck with everything to<br />

come...<br />

Alright, much love, take it easy love.<br />
