We always felt like we were throwing a party for our friends, regardless of the size or the place, because we actually were throwing a party for our friends. We've always had a very tight knit community.
Working on a play is a vibrant and collaborative business. Everyone from the choreographer to the music director to the director to the writers work together toward the same goal, and everyone chimes in on everything.
We were always a party band and we used to play outside a lot.
It was amazing and inspiring to see so many people come together through music to aid the great state of Vermont.
I cannot spend my entire life going around the country playing 'You Enjoy Myself '.
In your heart you feel like you're doing the right thing, because, ultimately, honesty is your gift to these people who are willing to listen to your music, ... Changing is part of that. You've got to change, and that's hard.
It was just such a sense of discovery happening that night, ... We did a tour in the spring -- this is God's honest truth -- and it wasn't really together yet. At 10,000 Lakes Festival, every time we played a song, the chemistry was there. I knew the next phase had begun. Since then, it has gotten better and better.
If I had a ghost living on my street. I would try try to stay alive, and offer him some meat!
I'm really excited to get back on the road and start playing the new songs live, ... The road is where the songs grow legs and begin evolving on their own in new and interesting ways. Shine is opening a new door for my music and I can't wait to find out what's on the other side.
The trick is to surrender to the Phlow!
I love the way this album came out, ... It was great to (work) with Brendan, who, nine songs into the record, looked at me and said, 'We're not putting this out until all 12 songs are great. You're not done.'
I love the way this album came out,
Musicians from the beginning of time have been there to express the mood and the musical feelings in the air for whatever's going on in that particular culture. It's the greatest joy as a musician to be able to translate that, be part of something and watch the scenery around you.
I am a prince I have it all, and I hear your foot steps on the wall, I wait in silence for your call, and take a shot and watch you fall.
