Music is my love and to me acting is more mercenary. I don't pound the pavements for roles: if it happens, it happens. I hate that auditioning thing.
The first Latin music that blew my mind was bumba, which was a Puerto Rican beat.
A lot of stuff I do, 10 years later it becomes popular.
My father was a Norwegian tenor and my mother a New York Irish librarian.
Playing music is the best thing in the world. It makes show business almost bearable.
When I was a kid, I had some Charles Lloyd records.
