Who doesn't love Game of Thrones? Sons of Anarchy is funny and thug-ish. I love Shameless. I just sit with my hat tipped, waiting for something to happen, more than going out after the shows.

But it is really, really fun to just change it up some and to absolutely be a very small spoke on a big wheel, and to just be a part of that and contribute to something that people can enjoy.

As an artist, you're pretty sheltered backstage. You often don't know what's going on out there.

I don't know any musician who got to the top without hard work. Take whoever you want. They all work bloody hard, harder than you think.

I'm not a workaholic, but I was a bit manic, I have to confess.

I quite like Low, the band from Minnesota. They're absolutely mesmerizing. I get much the same feeling from anything that Will Oldham does.
