I make the kind of music I like

I certainly wouldn't say that my life is a disaster, but there have been moments where I've felt like that

I did a song, "Court and Spark," for a Joni Mitchell tribute album that's yet to see the light of day. So she's someone I'd like to do something with, sure. I worked with the great guitar player Bill Frisell on Phantom Moon - that was fun. I'm such a fan; he's amazing.

I'm fortunate I have this coterie of musicians around me to help take music to next level. Being surrounded by so much creative energy, so many creative people really feeds that creativity in me

And frankly, when I made that record, hit songs were not what I was trying to achieve.

Lately I've been a workaholic. I'm in the studio all the time and I've helped to produce a couple of artists

I started playing music at a pretty young age
