It's not enough to do good. It must be done well.

I'm supportive of women, absolutely, and it's so gratifying to have girls come up and say, 'I'm really inspired by your guitar playing.' I mean no disrespect to the sisterhood, but musically I feel more drawn to things like Dirty Projectors, the National and Grizzly Bear.

I've always wanted to make music like people write plays, so I was inspired by writers as much as musicians.
