Artists don't come much cooler and well rounded than Lady Gaga. Love and respect.

In today's world, I probably would like to work with someone like Gaga.

Art is something that opens up and enhances your emotions and that's what I like to think I'm doing.

After waiting four long years since the Lost CHIC Tapes were recovered, I'm finally putting out our first record. I'm like a child waiting for Christmas morning.

Bands always call me when they are in need of a boost and I come in and put them back on top.

I'd probably be a super wealthy guy if I had sat around writing songs and getting them placed like everyone else I know. But I write songs about people or after I meet them and they're somewhat biographical - they're fiction but also non-fiction.

What do great artists do when you see a world around you that's in turmoil? Some of the best artists make you feel good (hah), they look to the future.
