Getting on stage and performing and standing under lights is such an unsettling experience - in a good and bad way - but it's the only place I can go to feel comfortable.

It takes us a long time to write a song that we all really like, so it makes sense that it would take a while for the listener to get there, too.

I drink wine on stage to sort of loosen my grip on reality a little.

A person with grace is somebody who's socially graceful or is a classy person, but sometimes you just feel the opposite of that, and you just feel like a jerk and a loser and a weirdo.

Not all the songs are real events, but I do write about stuff that is close to my heart and it comes out one way or another.

I can only write songs when somebody gives me some water to swim in. Otherwise, I'm a fish on the beach.

I have pit bulls barking at me on half of the love songs.
