Two early self-released gems - ‘By Your Side’ featuring the voice of Georgia Anne Muldrow and ‘Come Give It Up’ - set out his stall as a musician. With Pigeons & Planes extolling his "penchant for unusual melodies and skillful, jazz-leaning instrumentation”, he also caught the ear of UK musician King Krule, eventually joining him, sax in tow, on his US West Coast tour, including opening a recent secret show in LA.
