I think most artists would agree, it's one thing to be playing in front of a crowd that's loving it, it's another thing to add cameras, but it's a really cool trade off to be on television.

Bringing up issues that are hard to deal with is a challenge for me, and I think that's what draws me to song writing.

People really respond to the songs when I play them in concert. Every song comes from a different place emotionally or from a different headspace.

I don't wanna limit myself to anything, but I eat like a vegetarian and I eat mostly raw.

The ocean inspires me because there's the energy of the water moving.

I always liked playing music and I always wanted to be good at playing guitar. I always saw myself as an old man living in the mountains playing a guitar, but I didn't really turn that into a desire to be a professional musician or a singer or a rock star or anything like that.

Pain is part of how I get inspiration and part of how I gain wisdom on life. I guess the point I'm trying to make is that I don't transform it, I just let it be. I kind of let it move through me, let it consume me and I let it take me over and hurt me, and I let it go away when it's ready to go away and I understand that it's just part of the process.
