All of the music works on its own, but it doesn't really make as much sense without the picture.
I like a lot of different kinds of music. I like strong projects, big music.
Yeah, I'm sure there are stereotypes of Asian people.
Well, I always hope that I'm a role model.
So there was something of a learning curve with doing your own thing and people seeing you outside of the band. I mean, people have never really heard my voice before - or heard a whole record of mine before. So it was a completely new experience.
But, yeah, as far as Asian Americans go, I hope they know they can look at me and see that they can do music on their own, within a band or just on their own, and not feel like there's any barriers. I've never felt any particular barriers myself, being who I am.
