I can really only can record at home.

I can really only can record at home.

Sometimes when I'm traveling, I feel a little bit dislocated, especially the transitions you make when you're traveling - you go to a different city every day.

I find that I'm always struggling with the noise of the city. When I get a good take, there will be a horn or a siren or something. So it makes me very conscious of outside sounds, which in a way maybe led me to incorporate the field recordings.

I don't really understand the natural world, I admire it and am a little bit afraid of its power.

I enjoy touring and traveling because that's the time when I get to read, and listen to music. You have all that downtime, which is great for that.

Learning how to record has been super empowering for me, because I spent so many years going into the studio and watching other people do it. I guess a lot of musicians have gone through this because now recording is really available for everybody.
