I was slicking my hair back when I was in sixth grade.

I think any time you're at the end of a trip you're usually pretty ready to come home and start working regularly again.

I think it's important to say something. If you're making music it's kinda' like, oh, cool, so is everyone else.

I think the special stuff [music] still finds a way to be heard, as long as you pair it with a good release strategy.

I'm on this raised-platform-stage and I'm put on display, but at the same time I'm just a human. I'm just a regular person at the end of the day and, you know, I just want them to know that I do appreciate every single one of them.

When you put a tour together you really just think about who you'd like on your bill, who would make sense and who you would want to live with basically for a couple months and be around with and work with.

What inspires me is the desire to be on. The desire to be successful. The desire to reach people through my music and make a living off it and never have to do anything else. Being able to do music full time and travel the world and share this music with everybody. That's the dream.
