My overnight success was really 15 years in the making, ... Id been writing songs since I was 6 and playing in bands and performing since I was 14.
I decided to do this TV series because what I do as a musician and songwriter is connect to an audience, so why not take that to another level,
My overnight success was really 15 years in the making. I'd been writing songs since I was 6 and playing in bands and performing since I was 14.
As a musician, you never understand why people connect with certain songs.
A friend of mine once told me that I can't screw up when I play my own music. I also take voice lessons, play other peoples' songs out of music books, and occasionally figure out how to play other people's music from records. This keeps my ears, fingers, and mind working
The song "No Fairy Tale" tells my story. Going through the hard things leads to a richer life than just trying to make everything perfect, or worse, pretending things are good when they don't feel right. I've done that more than enough times.
Dweezil and I are going on tour with the band probably starting in the middle of February for a month probably playing a few songs from my new record and then I'll continue on after that tour
I don't use simple words. I make games and puzzles with my songs.
There's a variety and depth to the song topics I get to write about in children's music and books: being able to write about things I wouldn't normally write about, like a disappointing pancake, or monsters or opposite day is really different than writing about heartbreak and relationships.
I use my cell phone as much as I can-I talk to friends all the time. I'm like 2,000 hours a month. It's crazy.
And you said that I was naiveAnd I thought that I was strongI thought "hey I can leave, I can leave"But now I know that I was wrong cause I missed youYeah I missed you
I've made music for grownups most of my life as a singer/songwriter - often with my band, Nine Stories - recorded many albums, and 10 years ago I started recording kid's music, too.
I want children to be glued to interactive books that encourage singing and dancing. I feel when kids work together it brings about a different energy.
connect with more people on a larger scale.
