becomes feels four happen life relevant sing song songs
It's interesting how songs can evolve. Sometimes I'll write a song that feels relevant in the moment, but four years later, I don't want to sing it anymore. Then something will happen in my life, and the song becomes relevant again.
life music sort transcends
I've always just had sort of a dark take on life, I suppose, and hopefully, the music transcends that in a way.
ahead bright itself life rough seems within
Sometimes things feel hopeless. Not always within my own life - but looking outward, it seems like rough times lie ahead of us. The world seems to be kind of caving in on itself in a lot of ways. But I try to look on the bright side.
I'm not a religious person by any means. But I'm curious.
I'm not always as disciplined as I should be. I don't sit down and write every day, but I should.
almost best shows
The best shows I play, I almost don't even remember off the stage.
freedom hundred solo sound true whatever wherever
That is the true joy of being a solo artist. I can do whatever I want. I can go wherever I want. I can show up with my guitar and my song, and it can sound a hundred different ways. That's the freedom of being on your own. The flipside is: That's you on the cover. If it sucks, it's your fault.
I was a big fan of 'Days of Our Lives' growing up.
interview learn lessons
I learn lessons with every interview I give.
directly front
I like babies, but not in the front row. I don't want to sing directly to a baby.
love record
I love 'Wowee Zowee.' That was the first Pavement record I bought.
love songs time
I love kids, but there's always time for them later. You can always adopt; you can have a puppy. The songs are my children.
I'm more in the Stones camp than the Beatles camp.
I never intended to set out and be a singer-songwriter. I just sort of became one because I put out my own record.
