The Pattern's Laid Out On

I Firmly Believe In Music Being As Free As Possible. Unlocked. Shared And Spread. In Order For Artists To Survive And Create, Their Audiences Need To Step Up And Directly Support Them.

If We Can Repair Things Emotionally, A Lot Of Other Things Would Follow.

I Never Wanted To Grow A Thicker Skin; I Felt A Real Sense Of Pride In My Thin Skin, And In A Weird Way, I Still Do, Because It's My Thin Skin That Allows Me To Empathize With Other People. It's The Thing That Allows Me To Create Vulnerable Art. It's The Thing That Allows Me To Create Other Feelings And Make Songs That Actually Grab People And Touch People. I Feel Like I've Spent My Life Fighting That Thicker Skin Because I Don't Want To Become An Embittered Asshole.

I'm Still Trying To Express My Truth, My Place In The World, My Belief.

You Tour And You Work Hard And You Take Care Of Your Fans And Very Real Things Lead To Other Real Things. There's Never Been Some Fantastic Fluke Or Break In My Career, It Has All Been Very Slow And Steady.
