Any ideas of “other” are complicated, and otherness is relative to personal ideas of “normal.”

No one knows anything for sure.

Sometimes people ask what it was like when I got to meet Mick Jagger, and I must admit that you just try and chill out and be your best self around anyone that you meet.

I just try to tell a story with a song, and be able to try to transmit the emotion to you. That's all I'm really trying to do.

It's interesting to do other people's music - that's how I learned to play, by learning other people's songs. It's nice to delve into how other people got to where they are.

You make a choice to make music or be an actor, and people automatically think they can have access to your life.

My greatest influence is Jimi Hendrix, and if he's been reincarnated, or if he's looking down, sideways, or looking up, I just wanted to tell him that I love him and thank him for opening doors for me. I just wanted to make it beautiful for him.
