I also like a lot of silence, and when you're touring, it's constantly noise, all the time, you're surrounded with 15 or 20 people the entire time. I find that tough.

I'm doing quite a lot of painting on stones - little funny fish and animals.

Maybe I'm just purely lucky. If I've come up against obstacles I've always found another way around it.

I'm always trying to swim to new ground.

Writing is something that I practice at every day to get better at.

I'm probably much more influenced by film-makers and painters than I am by other songwriters or poets.

The way I make music is unique to myself and the way I have lived my life - no one else would tell that story in the same way that I do.
