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.

It's very important to enjoy time alone with yourself and just existing, because existence is kind of cool.

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.

I listen to tapes a lot. I have a car that only (has a cassette player). I like the nostalgic factor.

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.

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.

It's a bit of a weird thing to know that (my music) has translated to that many people.

The family that raised me are awesome people and they are my mother and my father and my brother and my sister. I've never viewed them as these strangers that took over. It's never been this crazy, dramatic, Lifetime-movie situation. It's been chill.

I feel really good about the future and working with people.

I'm letting the songs breathe and change and become what they are without force.

I just want to scream: I'm being honest, I swear! Maybe it's embarrassing, but I don't care anymore.

When people disappoint you, it's just as much your responsibility to be aware of it and what you don't want.

I'm sure that the meaning of the songs that I've written will change for me over the years, the same way that I can't even say what inspired some of the songs that I've been singing for a long time anymore.
Angel Olsen
Image
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
Image
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.

You want to create things as purely as possible without allowing the universe to interfere so much that it's manipulating it and making things unreal to you.
Angel Olsen
Image
A lot of people ask me if I'm OK. I'm capable of crazy - a lot of people are - but I'm OK.

If you can't be psyched about your own thoughts, then how are you supposed to have a meaningful interaction with anyone?
Angel Olsen
Image
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.

There's a lot of expectation after you do something that seems to have been well received. It's kind of unfair.
