I'm always moving forward creatively and don't like stalling, trying to find the perfect snare drum sound.

I wanted to remind people that there was a time when music required an attention span.

I wanted to give my first instincts a chance without shooting them down immediately, which I sometimes do.

"The Moderately Talented..." is just a commentary on the conflict that happens when a young artist girl looks up to you, but you're attracted to them in a different way than they are to you.

When you're a touring musician, you're always turning over new rocks and there's always a certain level of tension in your life.

I don't make demos. I don't have the interest or the energy or the time.

Nylon string is still a new love and I'm not tired of it yet.
