I started writing songs in high school and always wanted to have a band, and eventually my creative endeavors developed into Theocracy. So in some ways, you could say the vision has been there since I started writing songs.

A lot of times, people have forgotten about an album by the time it's released, because it leaked three months earlier. Very strange days we live in.

I am and always will be the optimist. The hoper of far-flung hopes and the dreamer of improbable dreams.

If I was making a tea advert, I would want to communicate about tea is that it can console you, it can start your day, there is the warmth and the ritual, and you can share it; you make someone a cup of tea and you offer it to them.

Lyrical content is very important to me. I'm always trying to make sure the lyrics and music complement each other perfectly.

Actors, movie stars, rock stars, I can meet them with no worries - but with footballers I go weak at the knees. All of them.
