It is one of those things that is universally connectable, people can connect to it from everywhere; music is like that universal language.

ThomstonI love making music. I feel like people often get into that 'you should only make music for yourself' kind of place, where they say things like, "I don't write for other people, I write for myself," and I feel like that misses the mark so much because music, especially pop music, is so much more than yourself.
