When you have fans telling you their stories it makes you feel like you're not alone.

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.

There's a much bigger picture beyond surfing, its part of an ocean culture. Everything comes back to Mother Nature. Surfing is a way of connecting, and saying thanks.

Honestly I think that the internet is one of the most amazing promotional tools out there. And I think it promotes music getting heard in a grass roots way, where people aren't being force fed to listen to something.

If you want perfection or close to it...listen to the record.

Me and my friends get together all the time for girls night, or watch rock of love on the couch. I end up going out to a lot of shows, and surfing with my folks is always high on the priority list.

Writing music obviously comes from being inspired by things, and big changes in your life, and relationships and growing older and being more independent.
