I've Been Fascinated By Music For As

My School Life Was Very Much A Wandering Experience. I Was Having Trouble In School And I Was Not Making A Lot Of Friends. So Coming Home And Actually Improvising On The Piano And Just Coming Up With Melodies Was An Escape For Me.

Don't Try To Be Like Me. Try To Be Like Yourself. Try To Be Very Good At Being Yourself.

It's Really Tough To Make A Name For Yourself Without Compromising And Without Fitting Yourself Into A Real Specific Mold. When I Made The Choice That I Would Be Involved In Every Aspect Of Music And Not Necessarily Make Music For Radio Or Mtv, I Was Saying, 'ok, This Is Me. You Decide Who It Is.'

I've Been Fascinated By Music For As Long As I Can Remember. I Was The Kid On The Playground In The Third Grade Who Would Tell Other Kids About Paul Simon Or Depeche Mode.

As A New Artist There's Always Outside Influences Trying To Tell You How To Make A Song Better For Radio And How To Do Your Hair.
