More quotes by Brandi Carlile
The mole can't live in your dollhouse.
Brandi Carlile
When I was younger, I was always running into other girls involved in music. When I was about 14 or 15, one of my friend's dads was an Elvis impersonator and asked us to sing backups at a rehearsal. I did well and was hired. Did that for about two years.
Brandi Carlile
All of these lines across my face, tell you the story of who I am. So many stories of where I've been and how I got to where I am.
Brandi Carlile
You can dance in a hurricane, but only if you're standing in the eye.
Brandi Carlile
People that could yodel always fascinated me. People that could sing loud always fascinated me. So I started trying to mimic at a really young age: 6, 7 years old.
Brandi Carlile
In life, I'm most inspired by entertaining people and driven by the desire to do it by such a powerful force that I think it influences everything I do.
Brandi Carlile
So much of the way a singer physically damages their voice could be caused by stress or nerves. I would never be so brazen as to assume that it's the only problem but there's got to be a reason that a martial artist can harness enough peace to smash his head through a cinder block without leaving a scratch.
Brandi Carlile
I'd love to claim the title of 'songwriter' or 'intellectual,' but the truth is that anything that I ever learned how to do in conjunction with music was purely so that I would have a platform to sing from.
Brandi Carlile
I'm not so arrogant to consider mine the only legitimate art form. I can't in one breath make a fuss about someone compartmentalizing music into genre and then in the next accuse advertising and short film of not being art.
Brandi Carlile
It's impossible to just come up with one thing that I could say to the world. That's why I've spent my life in the pursuit of the opportunity to sing to it. Summing it up goes against what fuels me.
Brandi Carlile
Singing is a form of meditation... apparently the only one that I have command over.
Brandi Carlile
I didn't get bullied any more than anybody else. I think I got bullied more for being poor than being gay. But no more than any other kid. And I'm sure that I did my fair share of picking on other kids, too. We're all humans.
Brandi Carlile
My advice to new artists is to embrace a broader concept of timelessness than vintage or retro.
Brandi Carlile
You know, your first album is about really amazing things. Your first album is always about coming of age, first love, first loss, usually you suffer a first loss of someone that you love to death, even, you know, really big life lessons, things you learn from your parents' divorce or from the travels that you took.
Brandi Carlile
But I'm warning you, we're growing up.
Brandi Carlile
Even before I had a daughter, I was passionate about global women's issues, but now that she's here, I'm even more inspired to leave a better world for Evangeline.
Brandi Carlile
I have vocal trouble from time to time associated with sleep or wine! Or from sleeping in a bunk the size of a coffin and breathing in bus air conditioning all day.
Brandi Carlile
There's a lot of really inspiring music coming around the bend - we tend to believe that to sound classic or timeless is to sound vintage or retro. It's a little bit dangerous, because you'll really miss a chance to make your mark as a generation.
Brandi Carlile
I tend to support and get behind issues instead of candidates, because of the whole 'Super Bowl' generalization of our world - You're on this side, I'm on that side you're a Republican, I'm a Democrat you're country music, I'm rock music.
Brandi Carlile
Privilege and complacency paralyze me with fear sometimes. But the less vulnerable we are because of privilege, the country we're born in, or the security we enjoy, the more vulnerable our souls are to apathy.
