I learned how to be more theatrical and have more fun, and to take a song and sing it over and over again in different ways, and make it different each time. I'm not just singing the song - it's this thing that's affecting me.

More quotes by Angel Olsen
I'm letting the songs breathe and change and become what they are without force.
Angel Olsen
It's very important to enjoy time alone with yourself and just existing, because existence is kind of cool.
Angel Olsen
I'm ready to take on different selves and experiment and see what happens.
Angel Olsen
I don't know what folk music means anymore, because the meaning of that just keeps changing.
Angel Olsen
In a lot of senses, things are definitely changing in my life, and with what's going on around me. But I still feel like the writing process is as intimate as it as before, if not more. Because I need my time more than I had before.
Angel Olsen
Go and experience life the way that someone else might experience it. Maybe you'll find meaning in a different corner of your brain. The fact that it changed doesn't negate the fact that it ever mattered.
Angel Olsen
I feel really good about the future and working with people.
Angel Olsen
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.
Angel Olsen
People should know each other because they want to, because they have things in common.
Angel Olsen
I wasn't an only child, but I was the youngest, and no one else in my family played music.
Angel Olsen
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.
Angel Olsen
You get to a certain age and it really occurs to you: My mother and my father will not always be here. My spouse or my girlfriend or boyfriend are here right now, but someday they won't be. You realize that you need to like yourself.
Angel Olsen
My first ever tour of my music was in the Netherlands. I didn't really have a grace period to grow or anything, people just started booking for me. I feel pretty lucky.
Angel Olsen
I've been writing a lot of songs in twos, songs that are like twins in my mind.
Angel Olsen
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.
Angel Olsen
Music is the first thing I ever cared greatly about. I've been singing and writing songs since I was six or seven.
Angel Olsen
I listen to tapes a lot. I have a car that only (has a cassette player). I like the nostalgic factor.
Angel Olsen
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!
Angel Olsen
Share yourself with others after you have first spent some time with yourself.
Angel Olsen
I don't believe people when they say their songs have nothing to do with their personal life.
