Music has always been my constant, my salvation. It's cliche to write that, but it's true.
Carrie Brownstein
Image
People give the words life through their own adoration or relationship to the work, and that's true of everything. You can't divorce critical or fan reaction. Once it exists, you forget that the words are arbitrary, or you start to remove value.

Image
I'm really drawn to the uncompromising realness of natural process: It's unadorned. It's not very pretty.

I got kind of tired of playing, I think. But I think it will be part of my life again, maybe.

There are foods you should avoid. For me, sugar is a no. Because it gives me a spike and then a crash.

Image
I think that there's always an assumption, when a band goes on hiatus or stops playing, that there's some acrimony brewing under the surface.

A lot of music for me was about - I mean aside from the fun and challenge of writing and being really good friends with my bandmates - getting to perform.
