When I write I find a quiet place.
I maintain that I never expect anything, therefore Im always pleasantly surprised.
I love the music of Lauryn Hill and Erykah Badu and more recently the music of Laura Marling. All these women share a strength and a wisdom in their voices and music that really makes me want to make music and sing.
Women who have strong identities, who know themselves, really inspire me.
It's really important that my lyrics are truthful.
Normally I begin writing a song with just with aim to express something, and sometimes I don't know what I want to express until a sentence comes to my head that will sum up everything about how I'm feeling at the time.
