I have many memories of waking up to eat breakfast that my mother carefully prepared for us and her saying, what do y'all want for lunch, and as we're eating lunch, what do y'all want for dinner? It's always about the next meal

I have so much joy in my life. I love my husband and kids so much. So much love. I'm also more focused now on spending more time at home and in town instead of going on tour. Because of that nesting, I find that I'm even more into writing and creating.

In order to handle my emotional pain I talk to friends about it, I write, I breathe, and most of all, I put it in perspective.

When I was a kid, for me, the '60s seemed so far away. But I was actually born in the late '60s.

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

One of the things that's influenced me musically was my experience at Brown University. I was surrounded by musicians that I really admired, and felt challenged to come up with music, lyrics, and recordings that stood up to the expectations of those musicians and myself.

I love albums that have guest performers that the audience will be happy to hear. It's really a bonus!
