That's what I spend most of my time doing, breathing a lot. I like air.

What I do on my solo stuff is just the most natural version of who I am, and I’m trying to represent the feelings that I’m feeling as purely as possible

It's my dream to make music that can make people feel like they're flying

When the intellectual part of guitar playing overrides the spiritual, you don't get to extreme heights.

And if a few other people come along who discover my music because they in some natural way come across my music, cool.

When I smile at the audience, I'm not smiling because I was told that you're supposed to smile to the audience. I smile because they're all smiling at me, and it's a great feeling to see all these happy people out there, and it makes me happy to see them happy.

And this whole period of time of gradually working at being a better guitar player and songwriter have gradually led me to the point where I feel I'm doing a clearer representation of the thing that I've been feeling inside me since I was four years old.
