The startold PEOPLE in Augustthat his journey to success hasn’t been an easy one, but that he feels satisfied in having carved his own path.

“In those back-room bars where nobody was paying attention, I always saw something that other people didn’t, and that’s probably from all the years I spent drifting around and playing on street corners. Where some people saw nothing but a brick wall, I saw a wide-open door,” he said.
