Journalists say my music is "blue wave," or "dreamy," or "jangly-slacker jewel," and none of it really makes sense to me.

'Salad Days' refers to a youthful or innocent period. And a lot of people having been asking me already so you jaded? And I'm not, I'm 23. It's me reflecting, I had to re-learn to have fun with music and I had to re-count my blessings.

That's kind of the weird thing about Salad Days. I had to block time off from touring and tell my management and label like no press, no nothing. Let me make an album. You guys are running me dead.

It was weird [touring with them]. It felt more like we were playing for Phoenix. They asked us because they're fans of what we do.

[Making music] only turned into this weird job in the last year or so. Once I figured that out, I was having a blast.

Perfectionist? Thats not something I am.
