Right, those relationships with your parents and family are the hardest to figure out, and the same patterns get carried into a band situation.

I picked up a guitar, and I knew what I wanted to do.

My methodology is not knowing what I'm doing and making that work for me.

It's a perfectly human instinct to want to be near water.

I've seen neighborhoods that I would have never driven though because I'm riding my bike, because I'm looking for side roads, looking for maybe more hills or less hills depending if I'm exercising or not. You see a lot more, and you get the flow of a city a lot more.

I think I have my own sort of distinctive swing, for sure. I think that's something that comes really natural to me, to push against the beat and kind of explore a triplet feel behind everything just to see what that feels like.

I've always related music to those moments when someone turns you loose on something and they haven't told you how to do it.
