I do like to look at female drummers, because I am one.

Our parents were very strict. Not in a brutal or awful way, but there were definite rules, such as after six on a school night you didn't go out, and at weekends you had to be home by a certain time. It wasn't particularly sheltered, but we were well brought-up.

There was no one in particular I really tried to copy.

And I've played piano since I was little, so I was originally the piano player in the band.

Well I had a musical background, but I still didn't know a lot about drums at the time.

Actually, I wear the nail polish to hide how grubby my nails are.

I used to play the piano in the band, and so there's some horrendous scenes of me playing the keyboards.
