I feel like the personal me and the artistic me are separate, but connected. It's almost like a Jekyll and Hyde thing. As much as you try to keep them apart, they end up together. I'm very much aware that when I'm miserable on the creative side - if I can't make things work a certain way - it really detracts from being the father I want to be. So in order to ultimately be a good father and the man I want to be I know I need to keep my creative side in check, or at least a little bit happy. It's weird how it's intertwined that way.

Normally you'll have a structure to a song. You'll have an intro to a verse to a pre-chorus to a chorus, kinda repeat that, maybe there's a bridge, then you'll go out on a chorus - that's the quintessential song structure - sometimes you might do a fake-out, re-do a pre-chorus but the chorus doesn't come until later, but for the most part you follow these tried and true structures.

I would rather be trampled by thousands of children than touch a spider.

I have no want or desire to solo. I'd rather create melodies and accompanying parts.

Festivals are weird, you never know what to expect so it's a bit more nerve wracking then playing your own show.

Popsicles should be the new black and then everyone would have one.

The future’s too bright to dwell on the past. Life moves fast, run faster.
