I didn't want to play music because the whole family did it. I wanted to work in a cubicle. I saw Office Space as a young tween and missed the point of the movie. I was like, "This looks good!".

I mean, Manhattan is cool. But weird parts, I like that. Jamaica, Queens, that's great.

I have a lot of friends that I'd like to shout out but I don't think anyone will know who they are.

I take making music seriously, but you have to have a sense of humor about yourself. I invite people into my life. That's how I do it.

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've recorded at home since I was a teenager, and I'm able to sit here in my underwear and keep trying different things until something works. I think if I did that in a studio the engineer would be like, "What the hell is wrong with you?"

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.
