Enoch Magazine ) Faith seems to an important thing in so many peoples lives. What is your perception of Jesus and how did you get that perception
?

Tim Convoy : Wow! That’s a BIG one! I think a person’s faith, spirituality, religion, etc is something that should constantly evolve and grow as any person hopefully evolves and grows. I think there’s nothing more important than not only tolerating, but respecting other people’s points of view on those topics. Even between the 4 members of Ludo, we certainly believe very different things but absolutely respect each other’s beliefs!

Enoch Magazine ) Where did your inspiration come from that led you to play keyboard?

Tim Convoy : I guess it was necessity as much as inspiration, Tim and Andrew needed a keyboard player, so i dove in!
