I think just being a '90s kid - I was not a Backstreet Boys girl, I was definitely into NSYNC.

More than anything, it's been a transition into embracing my destiny. I have everything around me to be able to do this properly. Whether or not I was hiding from that early on, I think now it's great to feel that way. It's just the journey.

Being vulnerable and strong is a complicated thing, but that's who we are.

I grew up as a dancer, and music and dance are so closely tied, that in ballet class you're listening to all this classical music, and in modern class you're working with a live drummer. It was something that always made me feel really comfortable and I've had a connection to since the beginning.

I'm totally into the emotional aspect of things.

There are probably still people that are competitive with each other, but I don't feel that's necessary. I like when we lift each other up.

For the name Lion Babe, we are a little avant-garde, a little left. And with bands like Blondie, Pink Floyd, or Jamiroquai, you don't know they're bands, you just kind of hear the name and you're like 'What is it?' so that was the kind of thing we wanted to do.
