Liam dropped out of further education after his first year and has since moved to Los Angeles in California where he has been performing live gigs. He recently released an album under the name Dead Calm. "That's kind of acoustic, that'll be the one I'll be doing all the gigs for. Because it's just like the most kind of upbeat. That's a lot of fun to do," he said. Liam said he wants to do "everything" and would like to one day try his hand at acting or filmmaking - but for now will continue to make new music. He said he has had plenty of offers from labels but is happy enough as an independent artist. Examples of other names he goes by are Miserable Teens Club, scm48 and Carson Clay. He said people in the industry have advised him against using so many aliases. They say he could become more popular if he put all his music under one name. "I'll never put them all under one, but I'll definitely slow down in making new ones," he said. Liam added that for fans, it can be fun trying to track down all his music. "It's not like I hide them but it sometimes takes people a while to find them," he said. "The idea of having to go and search them out, it definitely adds a wee something."
