I love to leave the interpretation of my music up to the listener. It's fun to see what they'll say it is

I was the bohemian in my family, the "this is my favorite shoe and I don't care if it has tape around it" kind of person. The tape could become a fashion statement. Or a political statement.

So the most natural thing to me is to stay as pure to or real to or close to who I am as possible.

I feel like I haven't done anything. What have I done? I've just made a few records.

I really enjoy being the child's 'welcoming committee' and to help someone usher his or her spirit into the world in a very peaceful way is very effortless to me.

I started performing at two or three on a tape recorder, one of those little flat recorders where you just push play and record.

Hopefully my music is medicine, some type of antidote for something or some kind of explanation or just to feel good.
