I didn't start playing music really until I was 18/19, so it was a relatively new thing. I didn't play much music in school.

I do not think good art comes from comfort. While from a humanistic standpoint I would have much rather been at my home that I own, surrounded by friends and family and controlling my environment completely.

I've traveled quite a lot and become a coffee nut.

I approach every show from the same fundamental perspective: this is a conversation, and my job is to make people leave the show feeling like they've seen something singular. It's not about smashing someone over the head from the jump-off.

I never was the front man in any bands I played in when I was in college, and I always learned music by myself at home.

At the end of the day music is a grind. You're constantly working at it and even with playing shows as well. If your schedule isn't planned right it could really throw things off, but honestly at the end of the day its incredible being able to go to so many places.

I have some vivid memories of walking around as a child with a cassette tape.
