Amy Ray
The only thing I have going on at a personal level is just the way I knew I was gay and I knew what that meant inside me, but the gender aspect of who I am came later.
Amy Ray
But the reality is that we are a folk band.
Amy Ray
I don't typically work that late into the night in a studio, I'm more productive during the day.
Amy Ray
The best days I have are usually days where I'm out in the woods and something happens, like I see an amazing animal like a fox, or I get a glimpse of a wild pig or something that I never see. Or crazy things happen.
Amy Ray
Your perspective probably depends on where you live.

I mean, I really, really love playing solo. Definitely, it's like a labor of love, it's not a huge career. It's not that successful, but it's something I love so much that I'll do it regardless.
Amy Ray
Maybe our gender is one thing and our sexuality is another. And that's a cool thing I think.
Amy Ray
