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

I'm not trying to prove that I'm capable of doing many things.

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.

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.

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.

People should know each other because they want to, because they have things in common.

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 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!

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

I'm ready to take on different selves and experiment and see what happens.
Angel Olsen

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.

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.

It's hard to force a relationship with a stranger even if they happen to be someone you happen to share blood with.

Image
Sometimes I'll hit a note and sometimes I don't. Why not at least try?

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

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.

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.

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

I don't know what folk music means anymore, because the meaning of that just keeps changing.
