My band can tell you, I'd rather do anything than rehearse.

I'm comfortable in my miseries. I have no choice.

I'm the audience first, and if you're gonna be a great performer, you need to be a great audience. So, I do music for me first, and whoever likes it likes it, and whoever doesn't -- well, it's just not for them.

I don't think I've ever put it in words before. But daddy took a gun and ended his life and took momma's with him.

I feel like records are moments in time, a modern moment that feels right then and it found its way to us then, that minute. We can all try and repeat records we have made that had success, but it's not possible.

I like to make great albums.

I never sing a song more than twice because my fear of waning excitement for a piece is part of my troubles. I so rely on vibe, energy and emotions that the technical part occurs to me last.
