That is what intrigues me; songwriting and song structure and expression.

Sometimes it's nice to have a song that can be taken more then one way, so it can be interpreted differently.

I have a lot of hobbies and I can be very remiss in reminding myself to go down to the basement to work.

First of all, when you live in a country like Canada, it's quite different from America in the sense that it's very tied to traditions that were born in Britain.

Music is all about wanting to be better at it.

I'm always scouring the universe for great old instruments from the '50s and early '60s. That's really, for me, the golden age of basses, when they had just been invented within 10 years of that period and they had just started to come into their own, especially the old Fender jazz basses and old Rickenbackers and Gibsons. I'm always on the lookout. It's fun.

With me, satisfaction is always very fleeting with our work. I always get a little restless with it.
