I'm attracted to music made by people who let themselves be emotional. They really care about what they do, and we believe in what they say.

You write these vulnerable songs as a sort of therapy, but if you don't confront people on a daily basis, it's not reality. There's still a bit of separation there.

I was in musicals. and I was in the choir when I was younger. Before I started writing my own songs, I thought I wanted to be on Broadway, but it was nothing I ever really pursued.

I didn't have my first band until I was, like, 30.

I'm very democratic about stuff. I know what I want, but I also like getting opinions and people sharing ideas.

My friends actually used to call me the 'Female Conor Oberst.' I got to open up with him once, and I told him about that, and he thought it was hilarious.

If I start panicking a little bit, I just talk through it with somebody.

People always ask me, 'Why do you only write about heartbreak?' I think I only write when I'm broken, so that's just what happens. It makes me feel better, but having some distance helps.

I get things out of my system through my songs, but, because they can be about so many different things, it takes me a while to get through them emotionally.

Relationships. Ugh. You have to laugh sometimes.
