I know musicians who think that drumming and guitaring can be very meditative, but singing is different because when you think about things, you put words to them. So I try to just stay present most of the time, I try not to let my mind wander and I also try not to clear my mind. I like to still have thought and be aware of people and whatever that's happening, but I also like to just focus on the words that I'm saying.

I love being creative, and for me it doesn't matter what it is - whether it's art or music or just daydreaming.

I'm a big believer in that old cliché of thinking globally and acting locally.

I want to live the way I choose. It's all about happiness. I'm a happy person. But to find true happiness, peace within yourself and the world, that is something achieved in the moment. No matter the circumstance.

When you get to say something in a song you're not directing it necessarily at one person. When it's in a song it's easier to get it out. I don't really worry so much about it when I'm writing a song.

A sunny, happy day is beautiful, but when it's moody, and storm is coming, there's an energy in the air.

Nature inspires me because it's so peaceful. It makes me have an inward experience. It makes me reflective and nostalgic.
