I like to play music that people can feel deeply but it's also interesting to listen to - a nice balance between cathartic and pop music.

My marriage is the most important thing in my life, but in a weird way I'm able to focus on other things more clearly by having it in my life.

It's healthy for a band to become slightly less relevant

You have to compensate for the luck thing by working as hard as you can and doing the very best you can do.

My grandparents are holocaust survivors so I was really aware at a young age how horrible human beings can be to one another.

I used to download a lot of music, and I understand it in this economy, but personally I buy my music. It feels good to be able to support a band you like. Plus, it'd be really hypocritical if I were still doing that, since I really hope people are buying and experiencing my music.

I think life awards you if have your priorities in the right place.
