There is a thread connecting you no matter how far away you are from someone and you know I have two or three relationships in my life that are like that.

If you come at the record feeling really happy and optimistic, it can be incredibly beautiful and uplifting, and if you come at it in a bleak moment, it can feel like a very dark place to share. It's all down to the listener.

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

I'm always trying to swim to new ground.

I've always felt profoundly about what's going on in the world on a daily basis. What I hadn't felt was that I was at a point in my writing career where I could write about these things in songs and do it well.

As far as in my adult life, it kinda started (with) writing first 'cause I went to school in Nashville. I mean, not Nashville but close to Nashville, and I met my managers in L.A. at a convention randomly. And then, it kinda just started from there. And then, I got my publishing deal.

I did photography, painting, and drawing, but I prefer sculpture. I like it because it's very physical.
