Q and A with Isaiah Firebrace

What is something people generally don’t know about you?

I’m a bit of a dare-devil type; bit of a thrill-seeker. One day I want to go to New Zealand where they have a lot of the big thrill experiences and do something like that.

What is one of your most memorable moments?

Winning X Factor has been my most memorable thing so far, but even little things that have happened along the way mean so much to me as well.

What would your final meal be?

That’s a hard one … pepperoni pizza.

What six guests, dead or alive, would you invite to a dinner party?

My family – mum, dad and brothers and sisters.

What was the first, or the best film, you’ve seen?

The first movie I ever saw I’m pretty sure would have been Winnie The Pooh. I remember watching it in my bedroom on the VCR.

What are you working on right now?

I’m just working on original content … original music. I have a new single waiting to be released written and produced by Los Angeles-based production team – a family of the dad and two sons, really nice people.

It’s quite nerve wracking because you’re never sure how well it’s going to go but because you love it so much you want it to do well.

I’m also working on a new set of songs, a new show that I’m performing tonight (Wednesday at The Memo) with my band and music director.

What keeps your passion for your music alive?

Whenever I feel unmotivated about anything I’m doing I always remember why I first started and remember myself a few years back dreaming of being where I am today.
