I find that when I put my spiritual life first, the rest of my life is easy. When I put my career first, that's when I have problems.

Thrift shopping is really just an extension of me being that same kid and going into a place that's completely unconventional that has really endless possibilities in terms of outfits that you can put together and really just expressing yourself.

I was always the type of person, and still am the type of person, that I cannot be creative and use substances. So from a very early age I knew that if I wanted to make music, successfully, in any capacity, I was going to have to get sober.

This moon man right here stands for a lot more. This is the most important record out of all of them. Gay rights are human rights, there is no separation.

I can write for weeks or months sometimes and edit it down to a song. I feel like it's a piece of music that will hopefully stand the test of time and hopefully capture a moment in history if I'm doing it correctly and honestly.

I think music should be experienced by people all ages.
