I love to write songs and sing them, and I didn't really know much more than that. Somehow it's gotten to the point where a friend can say, "It's very you," and that made me feel good.

Every sleepy boy and girl in every bed around the world- Can hear the stars up in the sky whispering a lullaby

I'm a bit of a perfectionist. I want to try it again and again, and a lot of times my fellow musicians have to hold me back and say, "Nah, I think we got it."

I don't really remember my folks singing to us, but they read to us.

My sisters and I were fortunate to travel through Asia and Europe at very young ages. We confronted extraordinary beauty in Athens and unspeakable poverty in India.

I like to feel that every day or most days, I do a little bit of writing. I am a creature of habit in terms of the way I live.

I'm a liberal arts junkie.
