The time between meeting, and finally leaving is sometimes called falling in love.

I'm making a record that's half stripped down acoustic which is the way I perform a lot and half of it is very produced. It's really hard to keep music simple but I was trying to keep it simple and focus on one or two instruments and vocals.

I want to work on some more complicated baking... and it would be interactive!

Don't force things to happen. You can work towards things and keep yourself open to things, people, and opportunities, but you can't and shouldn't try to control everything. Also, if you haven't noticed so far, I think sleep is really important.

I have three siblings. My sister makes music. My older brother is a classical conductor, and my younger brother is a mixing engineer.

I grew up with family who liked to travel and sightsee, so I have this pressure inside me: If I'm in a city and I have enough free time, I'd better go to a museum. I try to see parks, go outside. Or else try to feel really normal like go to Target or a drugstore, or go see a movie.

I don't use simple words. I make games and puzzles with my songs.
