I'm a Gemini, so I'm very dual. I love something and I hate it at the same time, so that probably comes out in the lyrics.

Sound is a very unruly thing, and you have to really respect that it's going to differ every time you play.

The guys in high school were like, You've got a nice voice you should keep singing, but I never honestly thought that one day I'd be a singer. When you're young, you don't see the signs.

I don't wear dresses and flowers in my hair and float around!

I like to hear what other people's interpretations are, because people come up with things I'd never thought about.

I like to find the beauty in the ugly. When I'm in a thrift store, I gravitate toward pieces I know I'll wear a ton, and insane pieces that I'm sure most people would consider gross. But I find them inspiring. Our van is currently stocked with some of my random findings from this tour. Maybe I'll call my aesthetic 'van fashion.

Sometimes people talk about music, whether blogs or magazines, in a strange way where it doesn't seem like they're actually listening to it.

I think the voice is an underrated instrument these days and it's easy to make up for lack of ability with effects. I think sometimes people are more wowed with effects than core craftsmanship. Strong voices are not as common as they used to be.

Obviously, it's great to know that your music is being listened to.

I truly believe that if you think something's stupid, that might mean it's actually good.

Yeah, it's a lot harder to find a musical partner than a love partner.

My hair is a wild, untamable beast! I like letting it grow my bangs grow whatever way they want and I kind of follow their rule. So side bangs, poof bangs - it's kind of unpredictable.

I think the Yamaha has a giant quality. When you combine the Yamaha with other organs, you get this crazy rectangular sound. It's kind of flat and thick.
Victoria Legrand
Image
I really do try to let the identity or voice inside come out.
Victoria Legrand
Image
I don't think my vocals demand effects. I like reverb to a certain extent, but I don't want to hide my voice. I like stripped-down vocals, but I also like crazy, powerful, doubled vocals like in dance or electronic music.

I studied voice and piano as a child, although, at least with voice, you start over at puberty, because your voice completely changes.

I personally do not listen to a lot of music. It helps keep my mind free. I don't want to sound like someone else from the get-go. I want to express myself and the world in my head.

As you get older you realise that nothing lasts forever. It's not depressing, but it does make moments more intense.

In general, I think I'm a very private person. But I also love human beings.

It's always about trying to make everything go with the music, like a script. It's not like, 'Let's have a confetti gun!' If I ever have one of those, it will be because it's absolutely the right thing at the moment in the song. I can't just go get a confetti gun.
