Songs are kind of alive, I think; once you finish writing them, that doesn't mean that that's it for the song. It can have its own little life, I think.

I'm always going to do that - record and make music.

Anyone can look pretty with hair and make-up.

It's hard for me to pry with people I know.

In college I had a weekend gig at a restaurant, a solo thing that was the best practice I could have ever had. That's where I learned to coordinate my singing and my piano playing.

Music is fun. It should be fun. And that's the key, I think. Keep it as the thing you love.

I had success early on where I'm able to try to keep it fun, and I don't have to do things just for the sake of making a living, which a lot of my musician friends don't have that luxury of course.
