I'd rather people interpret the songs and get whatever they can out of them instead of thinking about me crying in a room with a guitar.

I've been writing a lot of songs in twos, songs that are like twins in my mind.

I enjoy singing the songs a certain way, but I don't even know how the writing even began. To me, it's work that is kind of invisible it's a weird kind of work to have because you're not working, but it's not not work. Formulating your thoughts and making a melody that's catchy enough for people to listen to what you're saying is really hard!

People are buying more vinyl now than they did in the late '90s or 2000s. I like having different mediums of the record. It's always interesting to see how the tapes end up looking because they are so tiny.

My family life, my adoption - it could be related to the songs, but I think the songs are deeper than that. They're not just about this experience.

I don't believe people when they say their songs have nothing to do with their personal life.

I guess that in a lot of ways, my writing is more of a character to me than something that I feel personally attached to.

If, you know, all your life you're making films or whatever, and somehow along the way you lose meaning in whatever you're doing when you're making the films, they're just not the same as they used to be to you. That doesn't mean your life is over it just means maybe go try to live a different life.

Music is the first thing I ever cared greatly about. I've been singing and writing songs since I was six or seven.

In high school I was in a band called Goodfight, but it was more me running around on stage. It was very punk inspired. Then I started to get into indie-rock and older music and decided I wanted to write my own stuff. I quit the band. Around 16 or 17, I started recording myself at home on keyboard and piano.

A lot of people ask me if I'm OK. I'm capable of crazy - a lot of people are - but I'm OK.
