I think. I do know that I like connecting to people who really resonate with the music. I guess I almost wish I could just connect with the people who really need it.

I like messing up the song, doing some improvisation. And I like running around the room with the mic.

I'm a Scandinavian Midwest girl who doesn't always know what's going on in herself emotionally, which is why I make music in order to figure it out.

I was doing experimental noise-based music and I learned a number of things about performance. I was playing small shows - sometimes without a PA - where people couldn't really hear me so I relied a lot on physicality and a sense of discomfort and risk.

I don't want to be in my 'interview zone' mode. I've been doing a lot of interviews and I'm very self-aware of how I'm coming across.

Back in the day, no one had digital cameras. They took these pictures of me, got them developed, and then mailed them to me.

I've made choices in my life to be somewhat broke to do art and I think it is going to be the same thing with online exposure. You have to be able to make the choices that can make you happy or it will make you crazy.
