I started playing music when I was 18. My heart was just broken so badly that I decided that I really wanted to start playing music. It felt like the only thing that I could do in response to that. And I've been playing ever since.

I had no kind of work ethic and I always felt that music - especially rock 'n' roll - was a more for boys.

I realized that I really didn't like the sound of the ukulele so much so I started playing the guitar.

I'm going to be a better actor, or I'm going to try to be a better actor. I'm going to try to be a better musician. I'm going to be an artist instead of just this one thing.

The idea of choosing something that you want to be, that you identify as, at a young age and pursuing that without question - for me that was acting.

You perform the thing that you made, that's inside of you, and to subject that to any kind of scrutiny is terrifying. It's still terrifying to me.

I guess I was always envious of people who got to move to New York for college because they got to see the city that I, perhaps, was pretty jaded by with new eyes and discover for themselves that Andy Warhol was dead.
