I feel like writing music is a great chance to create something that extends beyond yourself.

I have three brothers. Poor Mum; four boys.

I feel like success is really subjective. You could win a school talent show and be like "I was successful", or you could get a Number One in New Zealand and be like "I was successful', or you could win a Grammy and be like "I was successful".

I mainly get my inspiration for writing from everyday situations and I come up with hypothetical scenarios and I can usually write a lot about that.

I'd gotten to a point where I would write a lyric and then delete it because I was worried about how it sounded. Pretty much, I was a dreadful person and It was just a way of dealing with feeling kind of guilty about that.

There is a balance in between where you can still make art, but it does not have to be insular.

The ideal label for me would be this passive being with lots of money, but unfortunately it doesn't really work like that.
