I grew up with synthesizers and weird, spacey music-hip-hop, R&B, modern rock-that I heard on the radio. That's influenced the way I play music. It's natural for me to go with what I feel. If I didn't let that other stuff out and stuck to a certain format, I would feel like I was missing out on something. I'm just enjoying my ride and being who I am.

I like to see how people interact with each other and I draw from that. I'm inspired by that.

You could say I'm a laid-back kind of guy.

Things that I would say or would like to saw are just easier to sing about and put out there in music.

I'm obsessed with fuzz pedals.

Most of my songs start out as being very aggressive and guitar-driven.

I've been called 'musically schizophrenic,' and some people think that's a cool thing.
