Going on tour, you don't have a lot of time to mull things over. You're just kind of, "Another beer, another show, another song."

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

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.

[ If I wasn't making music ] I'd probably end up going to school, I never went to school. Or just give up and get my plumber's ticket and move back to Edmonton and become an alcoholic.

I like guitar. It just turned out that it's the instrument I learned to play. I have a lot of respect for it and I'm learning more and more everyday.

Regardless of how funny I want to be, I don't ever have a problem speaking from my heart or speaking honestly to people.

I'm not really good at writing sad sappy ballads. In terms of the lyrics not matching the vibe of the music, that's kind of the way my career has gone; everyone is a little confused about it all the time.
