My personal feeling is that people need to be careful not to start over-analyzing and taking things apart and trying to be critical.

I grew up in the South and once you get raised on Jesus, it is kind of always a part of you even if you are a pagan, really.

I think art is definitely a great thing, and looked at as a way to open people up.

I mean, I really, really love playing solo. Definitely, it's like a labor of love, it's not a huge career. It's not that successful, but it's something I love so much that I'll do it regardless.

At some point I was hanging around with the Butchies - a band I ended up playing with a lot - and it just brought out this thing in me... and it felt very different from the Indigo Girls.

But the reality is that we are a folk band.

Majoring in religion, listening to TV evangelists interpret the scriptures and dictate my offerings-I found my God inside myself-in every moment and piece of matter. Everything is animate.
