I've been watching a lot of Joni Mitchell YouTube clips and I can't believe her transformation from this folk singer in Canada.

I'm not really that interested in pandering to an audience of people that are going to judge me before they hear me. If they hear it and don't like it, that's totally fine.

I'll write and make chords with my voice sometimes if I don't have an instrument even though it takes a million times longer.

I also feel like it's the right of the people hearing them to have their own interpretations of what these songs mean. Sometimes people will see things that I don't see.

I want to be a freaking feminist and wear a freaking Peter Pan collar. So freaking what?

That's one of the most exciting things for me about listening to records: It's a moment in time, and the less it's messed with the more powerful it is. I wanted at least one song on the record to be just completely about the moment.

I feel like making music because - and this has much to do with the way I was able to make this record - there's more of myself in it.
