In the recording process I do listen to other artists a lot and other albums and albums I am loving lately, or ones that I still love that came out in the 80s or 70s.

Prose poetry is not set to a melody or music so there's something freeing about it.

I'd say Ernest Hemingway would be a blast to get drunk with.

A true measure of success is just to work hard and get my music out there and just be myself and be real.

I write songs so that people can make them into what it means to them as well.

Writing a great song is not a simple task, but I feel like when everything comes together and you sing it in a certain way that no-one else can sing it, when it's written in a certain way that's perfect for the way that you're performing it, that those are the things that make a song great.

I'm not avoiding specifics, but I've always written songs from more of a global standpoint.
