That's what music is for me. It's a place to go to.

Love after divorce is all about showing and sharing with my son what is good and right in life!

I'm absolutely flooded with a raucous energy to get out into the world and tell my story again. I feel like this is spring. After a period of shriveling, out come the leaves.

That's what music is for me. It's a place to go to.

You can't just be reactive to the things going on in your life. You have to imagine, and you have to plunder other people's work, books, poems, ideas, observations.

In the creative act, you kind of reach down and look for things that will, when put together, create an emotional effect.

Everything's stolen. Everything precious - be it a kiss, or be it James Brown - gets misappropriated to the aid of the advertising executives. So, an act of reclamation, somewhere else to be: that's what I want my music to be. Somewhere you can step into. A place.
