I don't try and be dark, but there are obviously darker emotions that I want to capture sometimes.

Doo-wop is special music to me because it's so straightforward and melody-driven and captures emotions.

I signed up to be a musician, I want to perform, I want to sing.

I don't throw lavish parties or nothing like that - I just want a bed and a TV.

My father moved to Hawaii from Brooklyn and my mother came there as a child from the Philippines. They met at a show where my dad was playing percussion. My mom was a hula dancer.

Everyone calls me Bruno; they don't ever call me Peter - that was just my government name.
