I have ideas for songs all the time, but musical ideas, like melodies, really come out when I'm in nature.

I can't really write unless I'm full of inspiration. And even then I can't write unless I have some alone time.

It's usually kids that normally don't have a chance to get to meet each other because they're separated by millions of different things.

Everyone wants to know what kind of music their favorite artist listens to. It feels good to. I don't try to dwell on that too much though.

I want to write songs with meaning. I have high standards for my work.

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.

Follow your heart and you won't get lost.
