Musician

Putting out commercial pieces and promoting them and trying to sell them to people is not necessarily what it means to be an artist.

I like to have books around to give me ideas-to get the verbal part of my brain to start working.

I like songs that go to different places and then come back.

I'm trying to use the language of today to express a general existential crisis that I think the world and I are going through.

I did a record with a producer, and the good producers eat up the budget, so I didn't have any budget left to produce this record. I had to produce it myself.

I feel like I've been way overexposed in the press. I'd rather play shows and represent myself in person.

I'm not trying to overcome my father or fill his shoes or reach any kind of level that he did. We're talking about a Mozart of rock music.

I spend my time trying to figure art out. I was brought up to believe that the way one processes information is by making it into art. That's how I live my life.
