Being in L.A. has definitely given me the opportunity to experience how my music sounds in real life because I can drive around and listen to the mixes, which I couldnt do in New York. I get to feel how a song works in combination with a sunset and a drive through the mountains.

My records don't go platinum or gold. I think they go cedar.

I believe in the power of song. Under the spell of the right song, passion is within reach, love is close by, and you are not alone!

I make music to bring the dead to life for a couple minutes and then let it go.

If we can move together as a species, I think that there is a possibility that we can make the world a better place.

I spent more time at the library than anyone my age when I was a kid.

There are so many people in the world with so many different perspectives. But ultimately, at the heart of it, they're people.
