"When the inspiration hits it's like I'm on fire. It's like I just have to get it out."
"I'll feel this inspiration, it'll hit me unexpectedly, and then, like, it'll be a really fruitful period, like usually it happens in chunks of time, like a week or a couple weeks I'll be like really writing a lot -- and then nothing for a while."
"It's funny when you make something, especially in a bubble, and especially during a pandemic, you forget that music is -- well I forgot sort of -- that it's meant to be shared. Ya' know, I'm like, 'Okay, this is my music. I'm hearing it every day'... I just kind of forget that it's something that I can share and that other people can experience."
"I feel like this music and the way it's expressed in the recordings is sort of more me than anything I've ever done."
"(writing songs for a film's soundtrack) is one of my favorite things to do because it's just like a little challenge... I love it when I'm trying to create something for someone else's project. I love that collaboration."
"We had written one song together and a music supervisor heard it and they put it in a TV show and then that TV show was like, 'We need more of this'."
"There's been a couple times that I've written for movies that I've been in and so it's been, like, from the perspective of my character."
"Putting a record out and not touring behind it seems kind of weird and wrong because these songs are meant to be played live and heard live."
"They've definitely all been teaching moments. I feel like there hasn't been a project that I have come away from without learning something."
"It's exciting that I feel like artists have a little bit more power, a little bit more control... I mean there's still the big record companies, of course, but I feel like as a whole we're less -- musicians, artists are less -- dependent on those big machines."
