I feel like I am alone when I am in the presence of those I love. It is so freeing and comfortable, you become one with them.

People don't really understand who I am. They always think that I'm very dark or depressed, but it couldn't be further from the truth!

And my music is always such a release of what I feel inside, an impulse.

The greatest benefit of being a solo performer is that it is seriously frightening, but at the same time very empowering. It's just you and the audience. All the weight is on you to deliver the songs.

I think I'm making music that's pretty universal.

The only reason I would write a break-up song is because my own problem of allowing myself to relate to people.

I feel like I am alone when I am in the presence of those I love. It is so freeing and comfortable, you become one with them.
