The songs that you start to write that you are a little scared of can be the ones that you have to tell.

As my uncle always says, 'If your vibe outweighs your substance, you're destined to be a novelty.' I think that is true in all art.

Getting married and really digging in with another human being can point out your greatest strengths and your greatest weaknesses.

Just because you've written a song doesn't mean that you have pulled through. There are definitely songs where I embodied someone else's pain and that was purely to serve the listener because I knew they needed to hear something. But most of the good stuff comes from my life.

I love creating moments that feel bigger than just like an artist on stage.

As an artist, you just want to keep creating, keep finding a place that really inspires you that feels fresh and new and keep it exciting.

Songs really tend to connect.
