here some his interview

MUSIC Steve Grand: 'All American Boy' talks new CD, Gaga

WCT: I also read that you're a fan of Lady Gaga, so you undoubtedly saw her performance at the Oscars. Did you know she could sing like that?

SG: Oh—it was stunning and, yes, I knew she could sing like that. I had [definitely] studied her. I've watched all of her videos—back when she was 19 or 20 and playing at a contest at NYU. She's always had the pipes.

I actually trained with her vocal instructor when I was in New York once. He's worked with Bono, and he's the best of the best. But [Gaga] works really hard, and perfects the gift she already has. She just gets better all the time—and you can just tell that she loves music so much; she gives off all this energy.

WCT: Yeah—she's a lot more than the attention-getting outfits she has worn.

SG: And it's so funny because people just assume that if you're using those tactics, you're using them because your natural talent isn't there—and that's not the case with her. I would say that, out of the big pop stars out there today, there are very few who can hold their own with Tony Bennett and sing like that at the Oscars. She can sing anything: jazz, rock, pop.

When she was getting backlash, she said, "If no cameras were here, I could sit down at this piano and make people weep." She said that on 60 Minutes with Anderson Cooper in 2011. She knows she has it—and she's right.

Who have been some of your influences?

And then a couple years ago especially I really fell in love with Lady Gaga. Sometimes I like to go and find another artist from back in the day, like I’ve been into Bruce Springsteen lately and Neil Young, and then I do listen to the Top 20 radio. I like to keep my finger on the pulse and know what’s going on in music in popular music culture.

Once you came out on the scene you were already out, so there was no coming-out process publicly. What have you heard from people?

SG: Definitely 99% of the hate I get is from other gay people.

Really?

SG: Oh, absolutely.

And what artists do you look up to?

I grew up listening to The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Elton John and Billy Joel with my dad. We’d listen to the oldie station when we were driving in the car. Even before high school, I was getting into Blink-182, Sum 41, My Chemical Romance and all those kind of pop-punk and post pop-punk, all that sound really inspired me. And Fall Out Boy. Top 40s music inspires me too, country music inspires me. I did live in Nashville for one year when I was going to Temple University so I think that country sound and style of writing has worked its way into me a little bit and comes off in my music sometimes. And I love pop artists, I love Lady Gaga, I think she’s a great artist of our time.

I never quite understood why gay singers like him and Sam Smith never did EDM or dance pop when the fact is that they were influenced by Gaga, well maybe Sam Smith just likes Gaga but not influenced by her.

He's a good guy. Do you guys think we should ask him to do a Q&A with the site?

​Yes please. That would be one of the biggest and hottest promo for this site. :hor:

 

Gaga might recognize him too through this plan. :nick:
