I had a very modest upbringing.

I have a habit of recording records very quickly - and not in a haphazardly way, not in a way where I'm not focused on details, because I'm a freak when it comes to that.

Because I'm such a studio guy, I really trust my process. I really believe in myself in the studio.

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

When you go in and do a cool, small character, it feels less like work and more like fun.

Hearing the record and seeing the response is affirming that it was the right time and right choice.
