Musician

A lot of people ask me why I don't expand and explore other musical areas, but I like the plain three- and four-chord rock-and-roll that I call the the semi-blues.

I wouldn't say no to other kinds of musical opportunities. I guess that it just depends on what it was or what it required me to do, and if I felt that it compromised my own soul.

If you really believe in yourself, you cannot listen to other people.

I don't look good in beige.

Obviously, some people are thick, and they're not gonna see what they don't want to see.

You know I don't care if the world thinks I'm smart or not.

You got nothing to lose. You don't lose when you lose fake friends.

I love to engage with people who come to see us.

Aggressive, tough and defiant may describe me, but that leaves the impression I'm mean and I'm not. People expect me to have fangs.

I plan to stay in music. I plan to keep making records.

I'm not a list person.

I feel like it's my job to carry the torch.

One of the mistakes I made was believing that the rock n' roll genre as a genre was much more free than the whole pop or R&B scene.

You follow any family around, you're going to see elation, you're going to see disharmony.

Girls see these defined roles they're supposed to follow in life, but when I was a young child, my parents told me I could be anything.

So it was out of necessity that Blackheart was born. I think it's great that now, 25 years later, we're not only putting out our own music, but are able to put out music by other bands. That's really exciting for us.

When I came back to it, we amicably separated from Warner Bros. I just picked up where I left off, trying to write the rest of this record. It took awhile to get out.

People don't want to see women doing things they don't think women should do.

People are very sincere in their praise, and you can't take it lightly.
