Barry Eastmond Jr. has been writing and producing songs since the age of 14. He started out in high school as a drummer for a hard rock band (testament to his diverse musical interests). Barry would rehearse almost every day after school and quickly fell in love with the art of making music. Now, he's 24 years old and already making his mark as a singer-songwriter producer. His debut rap single 'Run It Back', an infectious rhythmic club shaker, is climbing the charts and vaulting this young man into the limelight. Even considering his pedigree (he's the son of legendary songwriter producer Barry Eastmond) that's an impressive feat. But Barry takes it all in stride, insisting that music represents something more fundamental to him than just the prospect of commercial success. Simply put, it's a big part of his personal happiness. That's good news for fans out there wondering what's next for this rising star. Alexis Adams recently caught up with this exciting new artist to learn more about his story and plans for the future. ALEXIS: When When did you first discover your love of music?
