I started writing songs when I started learning guitar.

It's easier to be angry. It's harder to be positive and happy, I reckon.

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

The first song I wrote was called "You" and it was a love song about somebody who didn't even exist. I remember them all because I used to always write terrible poetry. I keep all my notebooks.

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.

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

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.
