I grew up in Southern California, so there is just a part of me that is a Hollywood rocker.
Every place has its own punk flavor, but they all borrowed ideas from SoCal. It's still a vibrant scene creeping into every crevasse of youth culture. When you hear grunge, you think of the '90s, but when you hear L.A. punk, it's timeless.
I'm from California, and still live in LA.
Southern California, they have been amazing. They're totally with us.
In my mind, I imagined L.A. to be skyscrapers on the beach. Of course, that's not what it actually looks like. And growing up watching 'Beverly Hills 90210' and 'Melrose Place,' I always had an obsession with L.A. and California in general.
I'm a surfer. I grew up in Southern California and used to surf twice a day, every day.
I grew up in Southern California and always loved melodic pop music.
I think the California mentality is laid-back, and I definitely embody that.
I am a huge Sublime fan, and I think their music immediately puts you in SoCal when you listen to it.
I was born and raised in Los Angeles.
