Phoenix was a tougher record, a little more commercially accessible record.

I may quit the music business someday, but never the music.

I kinda threw the spotlight away from me for a little while.

Wealthy the spirit that knows its own flight. Stealthy the hunter who slays his own fright. Blessed the traveler who journeys the length of the light

We drank a toast to innocence, we drank a toast to now. And tried to reach beyond the emptiness, but neither one knew how.

I wanted to pay tribute to my musical influences: Buffalo Springfield, Lightfoot, the Beatles, the Hollies.

I love the subtlety and tonal range of the acoustic guitar.
