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

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.

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

I don't know a lot about New Zealand except that it is beautiful! All of my friends in bands who have toured there have said great things about it so I hope I can go perform there soon!

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