I just want to live my life a little freely and not adhere to any schedule - just make music and have fun.

I am laughably aggressive, and the rest of the band is very laid back, so we mix well.

I was always embarrassed because my dad wore a suit and my mother wore flat pumps and a cozy jumper while my friends' parents were punks or hippies.

I feel like one of God's chosen people, having had the opportunity to share, with many fine companions, these varied and lovely realms of our natural world.
