I had a period in my life when I was eight or nine when I was so scared of dying that I wouldn't go out of our house for a whole year.

I kind of like polishing the songs that I'm working on. I'm really working hard on some specific songs.

I really think I need to find a home. I don't know if that includes a girlfriend or not, but first I need to find a home, definitely.

When I performed the songs in front of an audience at the end of each project and I knew the storytellers were in the crowd listening, that was hard.

I think to find an escape route out of a music industry that is becoming more and more focused on making money.

I think all of my songs are either based on personal experience or will be based on personal experience, because I do write a lot of songs prophetically.

The beauty of the collage technique is that you're using sounds that have never met and were never supposed to meet. You introduce them to each other, at first they're a bit shy, clumsy, staring at their shoes. But you can sense there's something there. So you cut and paste a little bit and by the end of the song you can spot them in the corner, holding hands.
