I like how my body feels when I'm in shape; I love how it feels after I work out each day. Fitting in the clothes I like to wear comfortably and living a healthy lifestyle is important to me.

Bob Marley is a huge influence. I love reggae music, but I also love the purpose of the songs he writes and the style of the music - it takes your worries away and makes you feel good, and I think that's what music is about.

Songwriting is like a therapy, it's a connection that you have with another person, and I'm not scared of it at all for some reason.

Well, I started writing songs about three years ago when I learned to play the guitar, but I've been singing since I was eleven.

Talking with my friends and family every day helps keep me grounded and connected to home. They are the most important things to me.

Whenever I'm on tour and I'm in my hotel room and I'm writing and playing my guitar, I go in the bathroom and I record whatever I'm writing in there. It's just what I love to do.

I think the older you get, the more you know about life, and the more you learn about yourself and you become comfortable in your own skin. So the older I'm getting, the more fun I'm having.
