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.

I think that if people get my music, then they get what my message is.

Smoke Ring for My Halo was the first album I bought of Kurt's Vile, and when I first listened to "Peeping Tomboy" I was really depressed and unemployed. But the lyrics are, "I don't want to work. I don't want to sit around all day frowning." I was like, "Ah! Yes!"

If I'm not touring I'd just be at home, just driving - I'm kind of at a loss for how that stuff works.

I think that a good song is catchy, and a great song is not catchy - but it has a deeper meaning.

Festivals are always fun. I went to a lot when I was younger and had money to go to them. I like playing at festivals. They're always kind of like a big, crazy circus.

Every time I write a song it feels like it could be the last one I do, or it always feels like a fluke.
