ILM: You used to sit outside your brother's room and record his music through his door. What does he think of your music, success so far?
KT: Well, like my parents, he was a complete sceptic for years, to the point where every dinner ended up in an argument, but he's been convinced now. And he's loving it because he's quite a music fan, and likes going to gigs and stuff, so he's well into it.
ILM: You've played piano, then flute, then guitar. What's your advice to young musicians?
KT: The difference now compared to when I was a kid is that there's some amazing opportunities to play contemporary music now as a kid. I've even heard that local schools have electric bass guitars and logic audio set-ups and can learn how to use a four track, and can even get popular culture music lessons, which didn't happen in my day. I would think that's probably a better route to go. Because, although it's really useful learning your classical and learning your theory, to be honest, I'm not convinced you need the training that I've done. I think it's much more important to just nurture the creative side of what you're doing. It's really about nurturing it and supporting it and make sure you're working towards stuff. Say you're going to put on a show or a gig for friends, and then do it. That's a really good way to work, to set yourself little goals.
