I feel some kind of duty to be really, really honest as a writer. The same is true of my songwriting.

My guitar playing has not developed as much as I think it could because I never practice. I only play when I'm writing or recording or when I'm playing on tour. When I'm sitting around at home, I never play.

I've always been in this sort of perpetual state of existential longing. I feel like something's missing.

My songs are about not knowing who to be and not knowing how to act.

I love playing in front of people. I feel powerful, 'cause I don't have to really say anything - I'm just singing.

Music is so hard. It's a struggle to get people to care. It's hard to make an impact in today's world because people aren't buying records anymore.

I want to paint. That is probably going to sound so pretentious coming from someone who's been a musician.
