Personal Quote:

Maybe 'Can't Stop Feeling' and 'Turn It On' we'll just release as singles. It's a thing The Beatles used to do which I really loved, the idea of releasing something as a single completely on its own. See more »

Trivia:

Born to a Greek father and an English mother. As a child he went by his mother's maiden name, Huntley, to avoid possible discrimination. See more »
