I can't express how wonderful it is to get feedback when you've been sort of in a bubble working on something and then you release it to the world and hope for the best. It's like the birth of a musical baby.

There are definitely some stories worth telling and I think there's something to be said for telling your story.

I went to UC Berkeley for college, and it was during the period when the whole punk movement was happening.

I like singing in harmony - I like not having to sing every song.

I've had a lot of fun watching my husband's wonderful career as a filmmaker unfold and all the interesting places we've been and people we've met. It's just been a really enjoyable ride.

Oh, well, I'd like to have commercial success. I guess.

In theater and dance, I was trying to win someone's approval, trying to get in, trying to be good. It felt out of my control, whereas music suddenly felt like this free expression. It was fun.
