Kevin: We find our inspiration in the pain we’ve been through and also all the good moments we lived. Some of us have been through depression and stuff but we always found the strength we need thanks to our families, our friends and music. That’s what motivates us to keep on fighting : we’ve been through a lot of tough moments and we deserve to be happy now and do whatever we want and like to do.

16. Any final words of wisdom?
