Following a trajectory familiar to many budding musicians, he embarked on a journey around the world, spending time in Sarajevo and Sydney. Ultimately, he found his artistic home in Edinburgh, where he established a home studio to bring his highly anticipated sophomore album, “Care 2 Share,” to life. With “Asking For A Friend,” Gachan offers listeners their first glimpse into this forthcoming masterpiece, showcasing that his time away has only heightened his creative prowess.
