When something's ending, you go through so many phases, and it can be frustrating. But once you're out on the other side, it's like you can really see all the crazy phases you went through. ↗

My first two records are so simply constructed. The reason isn't because I wanted to make simple music. It's because I don't really have the chops. ↗

Songwriting is something I really need to work on. I don't have very many songs but I really love it. I would love to be a great song writer some day. ↗

What I was going for in the first two albums I didn't necessarily achieve. Because I was young and because it was my first time out. And the second album was such a 'quickie' sort of 'Let's just get it over with!' But the kind of music I make, there's a lot of subtlety in it. And I think it takes a couple of listens to actually really get it. ↗
