I hope to always be able to relate to my fans and be in the moment with the world and the community. I think as you gain popularity it's easy to loose touch and become disconnected.

I am pretty involved with everything that goes on, and overtime have learned a lot about the business side of things. I have an amazing manager, who understands the business really well, so he is a great teacher.

I'm just as normal as anybody else. I'm just probably in the same place as many people in their mid to late twenties are.

For me I want to know everything that goes on with my business but at the end of the day I just want to live, experience, be inspired and create music.

Where I grew up, surfing was a way for people to celebrate their love and respect for the ocean.

I think people in general that don't surf, have a fascination with it. Its definitely much more than a sport or activity, its a way of life. There is a culture that surrounds it and I think people are intrigued by that.
