You should constantly write because your writing is always evolving and progressing. It's really important to start writing young.

I still don't know if I can write songs. I don't think anyone ever knows if they can write songs.

I instinctively dress a bit tougher because I've spent a lot of time in the U.S. and I realised there was a certain image projected of me here. I've always been an absolute rebel. When I was in my teen years I had piercings and wore all black.

Cover versions, that's my forte, that's all I ever used to do. When you play your own songs, it's quite scary, 'cause I'm quite honest and open, they can be very revealing. But covers, I don't have to think about, just get me up there!

I'd call what I do pop music, but it's folky and electronic and it doesn't really sound like much else.

I've always said that Adele has turned so many people on to British singers - whether female singers or just like music from this country in general.

I've just become quite fixated on the idea of calmness and peacefulness somewhere, someday.
