This week on The Safe Room podcast, we're joined by a talented artist coming from Scarborough, Ontario. I had the pleasure of seeing him perform live and was completely blown away.
SRE (pronounced "sorry") can best be described as distinct and fierce. As one of the most versatile artists, SRE is very meticulous when it comes to choosing the right instrument and setting the right mood for his audience and himself. Growing up in Scarborough, Ontario, SRE shares his artistic perspective sonically and lyrically through a different lens.
In addition to opening up for Juno Award winners Haviah Mighty and Tona, Dance/Electronic Musician Elderbrook and Vandelux, Hip-Hop & Afro-fusion artist EverythingOShauN, and R&B-fusion/Dancehall artist Omega Mighty, his love and passion for music continue to shape him and his future aspirations.
This interview speaks on SRE's rapid rise in the music industry and shares his humble beginnings. You don't want to miss out on this conversation.
