I'm now so keenly aware that I have everything to prove and nothing to lose.

The only thing that's a little tricky about it is sometimes people assume that if it's a new song, it's a reflection of what you're feeling or going through now.

I've never, ever in my life enjoyed playing live the way I am now.

My joke, which isn't really a joke, is that there will be one of two tours: the tour for the album that does well, or the tour for the album that stiffs.

I can't wait to front my band with these new songs and play for fans, but I've decided to keep my day job too.

I'm now so keenly aware that I have everything to prove and nothing to lose.

I don't think it is pressure but I am aware sometimes, especially on this new album, that people were going to really pay attention.
