My mom really instilled in me this idea that parents are not perfect and they make mistakes.

Our houses are at least 12 feet under water. All you can see on TV are rooftops. And the bridge we came across, the I-10 twin span, is now split.

I had the idea to become really emotionally detached, and a lot of the time I've treated people that I've cared about a lot really unfairly.

I still listen to black metal all the time - that's obviously one of my favorite kinds of music - but I steer from it very strongly.

After years of touring, my voice has gotten a lot stronger. I used to just blow out after two or three shows, so I've definitely trained my voice, because I can now hit notes that I couldn't hit before.

I've always had this thing where I've always seen my parents as people, from a very young age.

I love seeing people get excited.
