I wasn't an only child, but I was the youngest, and no one else in my family played music.

The family that raised me are awesome people and they are my mother and my father and my brother and my sister. I've never viewed them as these "strangers" that took over. It's never been this crazy, dramatic, Lifetime-movie situation. It's been chill.

Music is the first thing I ever cared greatly about. I've been singing and writing songs since I was six or seven.

If, you know, all your life you're making films or whatever, and somehow along the way you lose meaning in whatever you're doing when you're making the films, they're just not the same as they used to be to you. That doesn't mean your life is over; it just means maybe go try to live a different life.

Share yourself with others after you have first spent some time with yourself.

I'm not trying to prove that I'm capable of doing many things.

I'm sure that the meaning of the songs that I've written will change for me over the years, the same way that I can't even say what inspired some of the songs that I've been singing for a long time anymore.
