My theory is, independent movies only work if you're willing to push the material and do something different.

I didn't do the typical things that young kids do.

we live; we feel; we hurt. the world makes no exceptions.

I had a very modest upbringing.

It's been such a group effort. When you're a new band and you have limited resources, you end up getting people that are there because they love what you do, and that's great.

I like to challenge myself and give myself a timeline. It pushes me to be more creative and actually do these things, not just dream about them.

My parents were hippies.
