Motivation is just this potion to create stuff, a compulsion to express the truth of my own experiences in this life.

Songwriting is like going to church. I'm connecting to something, and it's rewarding in really important ways. I don't need to share it with anyone to feel good about it.

Baseball is more than a game. It's like life played out on a field.

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

I don't need a mirror to see that it's true, cause I'm ugly with a capital U.

I've finally learned to love my voice for its uniqueness.

My first guitar was a Gibson Challenger.
