song heart cutting
I project love, music and love, and I pray for peace. A good song cuts straight to the heart; sometimes it doesn't need to be too many lines - of course, I do love a good story.
art action folks
Folk art has never been much about politics; it's about action and utility.
loneliness universe
Loneliness is the most compelling force in the universe.
needs partnership
I don't need to control anything. Even with romantic partnerships, I don't need to control anyone.
creating community musician
Musicians wake up and create a more loving community by creating heavier music.
thinking somber humans
I don't think I'm a particularly somber human being.
song writing political
I couldn't write a political song. There's just opinion; it's all arbitrary anyway. It's all subjective.
song personality littles
I've always littered my songs with jokes. You might need to dig a little deeper to find the humor, but I would totally object to being some kind of distraught personality. I've never tried to attach myself to that.
song trying way
I love songs because by nature they are concise; they sum up. I try to use as few words as possible. It's usually funnier that way, anyway.
cutting singers teeth
I was just a folk singer. I cut my teeth on the streets, you know.
thinking vision trying
I wouldn't claim to know what another person is thinking. I can imagine it, but it's my interpretation, and I try to make that clear. It's my vision of what I think their life is. I don't think there are empirical truths in that regard.
rap guitar long
I grew up in the suburbs and was raised on rap radio, so it took me a long time to stumble upon the acoustic guitar as a resource for anything.
differences advice insult
It's hard to make out the difference between insults and bad advice.
fun should ifs
I'm making music with my friends. It's fun. It should be fun. You shouldn't make music if it isn't fun.
