You are still lucky - you have a certain type of people who keep buying your music - but then you can get typecast and have to keep making that same music, and you can change only slightly. It's risky to bounce around and change your type of music.

The local music community here was dying for a place to record, so we started doing acoustic, folk and bluegrass and then did rock projects for other bands, as well as for my son Tal and my own work.

You take all the things that frighten you, and when you can get them to work for you all of sudden people are calling you a success.

The fact that the internet is so active; people can now speak to me indirectly.

My songs are like cheap Neil Young copies.

You don't have to have a great voice to sing, just a distinctive one. But make sure you say the words clearly and tell a story.

I don't think that bands that make it on their first album are as strong as bands that don't: there is nowhere to go but down.
