About Idalee:
After a drug-induced car crash in Virginia, Topher Hall woke up in the hospital and woke up to the demons holding him back. He pled out of his proposed jail time and escaped with only a DUI conviction, fines and parole officer. Serendipitously, he found a job down the street at a prison nonprofit that advocates for restorative justice on capital hill and in the prisons themselves. Because of these experiences, Idalee is living, breathing second chance. Topher’s rocky past made him who he is, but he’s been clean for several years and striving to make a better life and society. Idalee’s debut EP is available today.
