When we play, every day is different. All three of my bandmates surprise me all the time.

It's weird to me to even say, "I wrote this song." I never feel like I wrote it; I feel like I heard it.

Pop music is the one genre that isn't a genre. If the kids like it, then that's what defines it as pop music. Pop music is just something new.

I'm always looking to disprove what I think I know for sure. I call that learning.

I guess a lot of bands play around until they come up with something they like.

What's great about going on tour is that it immediately unburdens me of those self-centered misconceptions. Because suddenly, with these songs you've been obsessed with for months, you're playing them for hundreds of people.

Usually if someone starts making universal claims, I tune right on out.
