During this time, White began showing an in interest in music. His older brothers had tried their hands at playing music, and White soon found himself messing around with their abandoned instruments. By the first grade, White was playing the drums after he had found an old kit in the attic. It wasn’t long until he began learning to play a variety of instruments in a short period.

He was also a fan of classical music but eventually started listening to classic rock bands such as Led Zeppelin and the Doors. However, it wasn’t until high school that he discovered his deep love for the blues, a genre of music that would shape his future music career
