Some of my earlier songs are kind of more about mental illness.

I put a lot into my records, and I won't release anything I'm not totally thrilled with.

There's a lot of interesting words, nomenclatures, in science.

The earth almost looks like it's packed down and dense from so many feet treading over it.

The melodies come out so strong that I'm like, "Oh, crap." It's really better if they could both be kind of able to compromise, but the melodies, even more recently, they come out very fully cast and formed.

When I'm onstage, I'm completely comfortable, and I feel very vital and alive.

Norman is a very up-close, personal, character drama and I'd like to do something more zoomed out, a little more pastoral, some sweeping epic. I'd like to try something different.
