I grew up in a mobile home, but it wasn't like white trash - it was a beautiful mobile home park, I had a loving mother, there were kids everywhere, there was a playground in the center, I just grew up in poverty.

I'm not really into movies on dates because you can't chat it up.

I've had an interesting time adjusting to New York. I'm from California and I'm very much a California girl. I feel lucky to officially say I'm bi-coastal.

I have so many songs, it's ridiculous. I love so many different types of music and tend to write all over the map, style-wise. R&B, rock 'n' roll, screamers, pop, good-time songs.

Some people might say I need to learn how to relax.

The Wreckoning is a darker song. But the record is positive

I don't really like approach music to become famous. I've actually consciously made the decision that I'm just going to do music because I love it.
