In Canada there's an extensive grant system that really allows people to make their work without having to suffer that much, and I'm staring to come around on that, that maybe people don't have to suffer. Maybe you can just not be unhappy and make beautiful music in Canada, maybe that's ok.

I really love traveling, I love playing.

You feel like you're trying to show off your cool by mentioning the five bands that you know are great and the five books that will reflect well on you. I can't do it. I should take the time to but I don't want to take the time to do that.

It's not my fault that people are perverts.

It's a strange life... you really don't know how you will impact people or how things will play out.

Oftentimes the most produced and synth-tastic songs are the ones that end up sounding the best acoustic.

I do like touring but my life sort of starts to fall apart under it after a certain point. So you just have to stop. And it's hard to.
