I'm a perfectionist... So to me, if I had my way, a song is never perfect, never finished.

Don't take life too seriously! Learn to enjoy yourself and be grateful for all you have.

If my lyrics mean something special to someone... that's the most important thing to me.

Keep up with social media. Twitter and Facebook are both great ways to get your music out, especially internationally.

Write your own music and write frequently. Go to as many live shows as you can as well (of bands you enjoy of course). You can learn a lot watching other performers.

Every performance is different. There are so many factors involved... the people I've met that day, the weather, the city I'm in, conversations, sleep, mood, everything. However, there are many nights when the stars align and I feel like both the story teller and the stranger in the crowd, hearing it all for the very first time.
