I can't play my songs on the smaller harp. I have a Celtic harp. I can't do the key changes.

Lyrics are very different. There is a clear line between that and a poem. Something that has been a source of great excitement and delight for me is this idea that I get to rhyme.

I don't look at people's expressions, because I still get nervous when I play, especially when I first put the harp up there. I just try to tune - it takes me a half-hour to tune, and I get nervous if I look at anybody when I do it.

What a woman does is open doors. And it is not a question of locking or unlocking.

I did spend a year in high school being obsessed with Fleetwood Mac.

I recorded harp first or singing first. I recorded it all together. Part of the reason is that I don't know how to play the songs without also singing. I forget how they progress. I don't think that any of them are verse, chorus, verse, and so on. They are not simple.

People are often afraid for me. They think that I am going to break. I can make it through a set.
