I'm not a media darling. I'm not on the cover of all these magazines. I just quietly do my thing.
When you're making music or playing a song, I find the moments when there are no instruments being played even stronger than when they are being played. Because they add tension. It's also an ego-less...
And music has always been incredibly cathartic for me, whether it's writing my own stuff or singing other people's music; it's very freeing.
Coming to terms with the fact that my marriage was a failure was devastating and very difficult.
It's an amazing luxury to say I'm 31 years old and I'm gonna take a year off. That's pretty amazing.
I've learned to trust myself, to listen to truth, to not be afraid of it and to not try and hide it.
I think I've become a much better singer and a much better player. Years and years of playing a couple of hours every day will do that.
I sort of feel like music saved my life when I was young. This is the one thing that I knew I was good at.
I like the idea that we build up these walls or rules or laws to maintain our reality, and when they fall away, you're left with a whole bunch of illusions.
