Being a songwriter does not rely on an audience or other band members or a camera. I can just sit in a room and write songs. ↗

I'm a songwriter, principally, and I was real excited that people liked my songs, but you get a bit of an ego about it. ↗

I didn't know if it would be a success-ful one, or what the stages would be, but I always saw myself as a lifetime musician and songwriter. ↗

I was a different person before I started to write. When I realized I could be a songwriter and that people would listen - that was when I started feeling good in my life. ↗

I'm always looking for great songs, and not being much of a songwriter, I depend on great songwriters to send them to me. I go through tons of stuff, and sometimes you just find material that kind of fits and becomes something special. ↗

You read and write and sing and experience, thinking that one day these things will build the character you admire to live as. You love and lose and bleed best you can, to the extreme, hoping that one day the world will read you like the poem you want to be. ↗

Yeah, I always listen to both classic and newer folk-influenced music. Singer-songwriter, alternative music. I also listen to more experimental dance music. ↗

I never considered myself a songwriter, but now since I've been working with Nick Lowe, I am contributing to an extent. But I'm the guitarist and he's not, so we compliment each other in a way. ↗

Sinatra was pretty astute - he used the best songwriters around, he used all the resources, he covered every song from the era basically. ↗
