It's unfair of me to tell anyone what to think. I make myself for myself to get out my own desire to create and make sense of things in life. Hopefully, it does the same for others.

My biggest regret is probably that it took me so long to find out what I want to do.

I never want a fan to come and hear what they hear on their iPod, its about creating a unqiue and awesome experience.

The cool thing about college tours is you make friends with a lot of other artists because the schools come in and they're looking to make a diverse grouping together and then it works out for everyone.

Hoodie was just a nickname I had growing up and I just wanted to have a name that would stick in peoples' minds and be a little bit funny and representative of who I am.

I try not to listen to a lot of music when I'm starting the recording process, because it can be so subtly influential.

I like to write from my life and the relationships that make it up. I think its important to use music to change people's moods. I try to write my story in a way that people can take for themselves and their own life.
