“I first started taking music more seriously when I was about 16. I just started writing songs in my room. [I] kind of just had an intuitive sense of structure that I hadn’t really been taught.

“We would just get together at a friend’s house and start practising songs and I sort of then wrote a song by accident and I put it on YouTube and it kind of went from there really.”
