I Don't Want To Be

I Don't Play An Instrument - I Just Write In My Head, And I Usually Hear Fully Formed Songs. 'we Are Young' Turned Out So Much Like It Was In My Head. But It Also Exceeded All My Expectations.

I Always Wanted To Be A Singer, But None Of My Friends Thought I Could Sing.

It's Interesting To Feel The Pressure Of Having To Be Outgoing, Because I Think In General, As A Human Being, I'm Pessimistic And Introverted. But, It's Cool, Because It's A Whole Different Side Of Me, And I Impress Myself. Even At Times When I Think That There's No Possible Way That I Can Be Engaging, I'll Suddenly Pull It Out And Impress Myself.

Indie Record Stores Are As Important To A Touring Musician As An Incredible Thrift Store. I Can't Overstate How Good It Feels To Place An Original Pressing Of 'veedon Fleece' In Your Most Underused Of Shirts And Pack It Into Your Suitcase, Anxiously Awaiting The Day You Get Home So That You Can Play It As Though It Was Your Reward Or Trophy From The Long Journey You Had Just Finished Embarking On.

I Was Signed At 19 Years Old To A Major Label, And Dropped By The Time I Was 22.
