Typically I go in the studio and whatever I'm contemplating that day will wind up being a song. I don't come in with lyrics... I just go in and let it happen.

When I'm really, really angry, if I'm privileged enough to be next to someone who can hold my anger, I'll definitely take them up on holding the bucket.

I didn't have high self-esteem when I was a teen-ager, as I think most teen-agers don't.

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.

I find as an artist if I'm not expressed relatively consistently, I get really depressed.

I've been really enjoying writing articles and writing music and music for movies.

A brave action is often followed by grief. Do not let my resistance to grief stop the brave action.
