I love the universality of music and how it can viscerally connect people from culture to culture, regardless of anything. It kind of levels everything out and connects us. That universal sound thing is a big deal to me.

The ego is a fascinating monster.

I felt like I was making a record under the radar, and that is my favorite way to do anything.

In a perfect world, there would be no censorship, because there would be no judgement.

The thing I always default to is that I'll always be here to write songs.

I've been doing a lot of different cross-training and kickboxing and Capoeira and kite surfing, and I've just really been back to what I consider my original athletic self.

What I try to keep in mind is that there are going to be a lot of articles that are going to be misrepresentative of what I'm about as a person and as a writer.
