There's a fine line between character building and soul destroying.

Most people remember me for a couple of tunes.

I tend to write, either myself, or I sometimes write with a co-writer, my friend that lives up the road. It's usually a relatively solitary thing, but I do like coming up with ideas.

It strikes me there's a bunch of people in power who have really strong intentions of running the world and adjusting the world to exactly how they see it.

I find that, rather than the cities, I'm very lucky because the audiences that come and see me are very, generally speaking, truly kind, so I have a great time playing everywhere.

I used to drink a lot. I had to stop drinking because it was getting the better of me, and I replaced that with really doing shows.

My mother features quite heavily in a lot of my songs.
