Once I picked up an electric guitar, I lost interest in piano, and I just wanted to rock. I studied piano for so long, I got burned out on it.

Writing helps me process things that are happening to me.

I always believe that a person can learn so much by just jumping into something and trying to do it rather than having someone else teach you everything.

I like people wanting to know about me.

I could make a whole album with no one else involved at all. It would be a total, unadulterated expression of myself. Because whenever you have others playing on a project, their influence becomes a part of it.

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

I've seen quite a bit of the world, but I really like Sweden and feel like I could live there some day.
