When I'm out in the water surfing, it clears my mind and it makes me want to play music and write music, and then when I'm playing a lot of music and touring, I can't wait to get in the water again and surf. So, I'm striving to find that perfect balance, and it's all good.

I just think it's amazing that I'm able to do both singing and surfing.

[Jack Johnson] really helped me make the record, put it out, and then let me tour with him for two years. He really helped me out.

I travel a lot, and being in different countries and a part of cultures, that's just such a huge inspiration for music, and one way or another, you get influenced.

[Jack Johnson]gave me my whole start in music, which was the coolest thing ever.

[The Surf Lodge performance] is sort of like an annual thing.
