I'm so happy. I am able to see the world just by making music, just by doing the thing that I loved doing when I was five years old.

I don't think about the styles. I write whatever comes out and I use whatever kind of instrumentation works for those songs.

When I stopped trying to write songs, that's when I'm able to begin writing songs. You have to just use your life, and the things around you for your inspiration.

I just live my life and try to be present.

My career has been a gradual climb. I think that's part of the reason why I've had longevity.

I haven't thought about making a music film, but if I did, that would be a very interesting idea.

I found it a really refreshing change of pace to suddenly be completely directed. It was a type of collaboration that I don't normally have.
