In an interview, Lewis previously said: "I started playing the guitar when I was nine, because my older brother, who is six years older than me, he was doing it.
"I started writing songs from that age too, and when I turned 11 I wanted to play gigs. My older brother, he was in a band, and he got me into pubs.
