From an early age, That Kid Roy has had an interest in music. He began playing guitar when he was eight years old. In high school, he took a break from guitar to spend time in photography and hockey, but then got back into music when he began playing drums while he was in college. His interest in drums led to an interest in hip-hop. As he started heavily listening to the beats, lyrics, and production of his favorite artists, he began writing his own songs.

​

Influenced by artists such as G-Eazy, Logic, Cal Scruby, and Post Malone, TKR has been able to develop a writing and music style that he is proud to call his own, and believes it will help set him apart from other artists. With an unmatched energy on stage, and a desire to always learn and better himself, he's poised to continue his climb to the top.
