Q&A: ReverbNation Competition Winner Arran Page – “without music, life would be a mistake”
I grew up in the West Midlands and became obsessed with music at around 12 years old (I’m 28 now!).

Fragile by Sam Ravenna – a top of the playlist debut album.

Released October 19, Fragile represents Ravenna’s use of music to navigate and sooth the vagaries of a fragile life that included a mental breakdown at 22.
