"Our whole family is very musical and very talented. We all grew up doing plays and shows, seeing my mom go to auditions and watching her sing at the Metropolitan Opera. We always thought it was The Jacksons, The Osmonds and us (laughs). Like, “Doesn’t everybody have a drum set in their living room?” I come from an entertaining family."
