I like records that flow really well and you don't have to skip around because there's lot of different jumps.

I feel like I've been lucky, because I don't feel like I've ever tried to be somebody I'm not. People might disagree.

I just want to make my music, and I want it to stand on its own.

I like to be in control of things.

I don't want to be the next big anything. I just want to play for people and that's it.

I love my dad and we have a very good relationship now.

I'd done recordings, little demos, since I was in college, which I used to get gigs. But I never thought I'd have a record label.
