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.

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