I studied voice and piano as a child, although, at least with voice, you start over at puberty, because your voice completely changes.

The guys in high school were like, "You've got a nice voice; you should keep singing," but I never honestly thought that one day I'd be a singer. When you're young, you don't see the signs.

I'm a Gemini, so I'm very dual. I love something and I hate it at the same time, so that probably comes out in the lyrics.

I don't think my vocals demand effects. I like reverb to a certain extent, but I don't want to hide my voice. I like stripped-down vocals, but I also like crazy, powerful, doubled vocals like in dance or electronic music.

As long as artists can make something, artists will continue to survive.

I really do try to let the identity or voice inside come out.

When something goes into the world, you immediately begin to develop another perspective on yourself, another identity.
