Sometimes when I'm writing a song I'll get carried away with production when I'm only on the first verse, and that sacrifices the songwriting.

Traveling really inspires me, seeing other cities and going on tour. If you've got fans online, it's hard to remember those people are real people.

When you go on tour and see everyone, you're like, "Oh my god. This is actually real life." That inspires me to write more songs.

Moving to London was a culture shock, but in a really good way. I'm more aware now, and I'm less trusting of people in the music industry.

Nothing makes me happier than writing a song that I think is good or that I want to play. Writing songs helps me.

I would literally never think about melody. I never thought people listened to melody because I listen to words.

When I used to write songs, especially on my own, it was just me and a guitar.
