I could never just play in a pub in front of four people because I would have had all the press turn up. That way, you don't get to build up naturally. It makes the work feel unnatural, and puts a lot of unnatural pressure on you.

Websites are kind of useless. There's so much great web content and design out there, but the ways in which they are being experienced are not being maximized.

I don't ever use my name for anything in terms of getting the music heard.

My job description is... being enthusiastic.

I was recording stuff with my dad when I was like five, six years old. I played with him on tour. I'd gone with him to Japan in '91, played some gigs, did a couple shows at the Albert Hall.

I suddenly realized that in order to do what I wanted to do, I had to become that which I hated - which is the head of a record company or a digital media conglomerate - and just do whatever you want.

I have two mini huskies called Woody Guthrie and Edison Guthrie.
