I think I learned a lot about not buying into a lot of hype. I wanted to be a kind of faceless entity; I didn't want to be Dhani Harrison and the Muppets or something like that.

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

Being in L.A. is great because there are so many weird people out there, so you can just blend in. I like that.

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

I did the first backwards guitar solo on ‘I’m Only Sleeping’

I did rebel. I was the rebel in my family, because my dad wanted me to go and just travel with him.

I came home one day from school after being chased by kids singing “Yellow Submarine”, and I didn't understand why. It just seemed surreal: why are they singing that song to me? I came home and I freaked out on my dad: 'Why didn't you tell me you were in The Beatles?' And he said, 'Oh, sorry. Probably should have told you that.'
