If I make a record I love, then somebody will like it. Maybe not everybody, but that won't matter.

I'm happy. I feel good about music.

Sometimes when you're trying to do a record too close to home, you can get really distracted.

I had very modest expectations when I first moved to New York. I didn't even expect to get a record deal.

It's fun to peek into other people's worlds and see how they go about doing things.

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