I definitely grew up on a lot of American bands. I didn't really know that there were any decent Australian bands until I was around 20.

Artists thrive off each other, and when you see other people doing cool stuff, it inspires you to do cool stuff.

When I was a teen, or like 18 to early 20s, I used to go to festivals all the time. I'd save all my money.

There's lots of interesting stuff happening in the world. Lots of good and bad things, and there's interest in music still, which there always will be, which is always a good thing.

I've never really had a certain style of music in mind that I make, or am really adamant on how something should sound, but I like the process of not knowing, of just seeing what happens and what comes out.

If I make a wrong decision, I worry what might have been. I stress out over very insignificant things.

The music, I think, is just as important as the lyrics; it portrays the emotion of the song. I play the kind of music that I want to listen to.
