The music I want to hear in my head sounds somewhere between Jimi Hendrix and Massive Attack. It's not really like my dad, but there will always be similarities because we have the same vocal cords, and I learnt the guitar the way he taught me.

Live a Lie' is inspired by recent combinations found in dubstep.

I sometimes listen to music I made and find it to be something I wouldn't want to buy from a store, if there was a store. When it's like that, you have to make what you want to hear.

'Keep your head down at school.' Those are sage words from my dad. They kept me in check for years.

I did everything I could to not be a musician.

You don't have to burn books, you don't have to rebel against teachers to rebel; to rebel is to truly own your own self.

Playing music has always felt very natural. You know, you do try to do other things, and you do learn lessons that way, but, eventually - well... if your dad is a plumber, you become a plumber. It's the family business, and I felt like I was taking over the family business.
