Food in Dublin has gotten immeasurably better than it was. When I was a kid, there weren't a lot of options. Now you're overwhelmed with options.

I think sitting in the car with your parents and listening to music is an essential to growing up.

I was never a 'sit down with a notepad and write lyrics' kind of person.

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

The hip-hop aesthetic and the way it's produced always motivated me. Alongside that I was still wanting to make great traditional songs because I've never had any desire to rap. My love of hip-hop is driven by my love of rappers, but it was built out of my love of producers.

I'm learning on the guitar all the time.

You play a couple of shows, and these label guys come - and they leave halfway through a show. Then the phone calls just stop. And your heart is broken.
