Without an audience, all your dreams will not come true at all, because you need an audience to write new songs and continue to do music.

You can be a star here in Europe and not be known at all in the United States.

Everybody does music from his culture and his experiences with his culture. There are not so many people who are interested by the music coming from different countries and different cultures and trying to make music from that, from all these experiences.

I think about all these influences and musical cultures, then the opinion of the audience is of course important, but when I'm working on an album or a new project, I'm not all the time thinking about what the audience will think about it.

The interesting thing for me is to put together all my influences and all my experiences I got through my traveling with my father.

Sometimes there are painters or very famous artists who start to become artists after they are dead because an audience or a public know about their art after they die.

The most important thing is to be happy myself with what I am doing.
