If you're a novelist, you have sort of themes that run throughout novels. You start a novel and you finish a novel. With record-making in the singer-songwriter world or whatever it is that I do, it's a little different because there is no specific arc that is necessarily, like it's not a concept record.

I can relate to soul, R&B... whatever people want to call me is fine. I just hope it makes them feel something.

I'm in love with a girl who's in love with the world.

I do not go on my Wikipedia page. There's just too much weird information on there for me to pick apart.

I grew up working at a record store and listening to vinyl. Even if it's side A and B, there's always this continuity that really turned me on about music.

I don't really hang out with a lot of celebrities.

I love when people are coming up and they're working hard and you can see that they're really focused on the process to their music. I really dig that. As a musician, it's nice to see people who really care about the process.
