It's usually kids that normally don't have a chance to get to meet each other because they're separated by millions of different things.

I think most artists would agree, it's one thing to be playing in front of a crowd that's loving it, it's another thing to add cameras, but it's a really cool trade off to be on television.

It's cool to be healthy now! It's cool to, like, drink fresh juices and drink Kombucha and all that stuff.

I also love fall, when it starts to rain, or even just before the rain - that is the most inspiring thing.

I like fish and a lot of seaweed, but I don't eat bread or dairy or anything like that. It's kind of like in the macrobiotic world. I'm just a healthy eater who loves to juice.

I guess it's just my job to somehow balance knowing that every song is going to come differently and be different, but also know that, on the other hand, I am a songwriter and I am a craftsman, and I do have a craft and a technique and a method. So I need to balance the technique and the method.

Pain is a part of life. It's certainly part of my creative process.

I can write songs, but I'm not gonna really feel good about the song unless it feels like me, and I'm not gonna release a song or put it on an album or play it in concert unless it really feels like me.

Image
Bringing up issues that are hard to deal with is a challenge for me, and I think that's what draws me to song writing.

Image
I think everybody, no matter what they eat, they should eat at least fifty percent raw food. But I eat some seafood.
Brett Dennen
Image
I come from a place of sincerity. I write about what I see and feel. I write about what I want, I don't have a political agenda. Politics may enter into a song but it always comes from the heart.

When you're young that's when you feel like you can change the world. Then you get older and you buy a house and have kids, and you don't want to be so bold anymore.
Brett Dennen

I think food is the great equalizer. Other than the ocean and the air, food is the thing that we all share in common. I think along with that comes the question of why are some people starving, and why do some people produce more food than they need, and why is food going to waste.

I think there's a certain magic that comes from being creative.

Image
Nature inspires me because it's so peaceful. It makes me have an inward experience. It makes me reflective and nostalgic.

Blessed is this life, I'm gonna celebrate being alive.
Brett Dennen
Image
I think the two biggest issues are world hunger and health, and all the things that stem from bad food.

I think for me to do a traditional sitting meditation I would really have to spend a couple weeks working at it. The only way I know how to efficiently, effectively meditate is by walking in nature.

Songs don't really feel like me unless I somehow shed a little secret or open myself somehow or be vulnerable. When I'm singing these songs, it feels like me, and that comes with the vulnerabilities and the strengths and the moments of triumph or whatever.

What I strive to do with songwriting is be really honest, authentic and try to be open and share that with people. I choose that over trying to be clever, poetic, or lyrical.
