Most of the time you're writing for radio, you're writing for a label, you're writing to stick a hit, and you end up coming out with something that isn't necessarily genuine.
Amanda MichalkaFamily matters. Family are the only people who will tell you when you're getting off the tracks a little. Surround yourself with people who love theLord, love themselves and love you, and you can't really fail.
Amanda MichalkaMusic is entertainment, but I would like to be able to inspire the audience in a way that makes them leave, saying, "Wow, I just left with something I didn't have before going into this concert." I hope that people can leave either a live show or listening to our band record with a sense of peace, where the music was a moment of escape.
