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.

Creating music fulfills me. It gives me purpose. It connects me with the world.

I pay attention to how I look but I don't let it go too far.

A great song should lift your heart, warm the soul and make you feel good.

I miss everything about you. Can't believe that I still want youAnd after all the things we've been through.

I was always shy and had a huge fear of being onstage.

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.
