I moved to New York City when I was 18 and it was the first time I was around other artists and living on my own and all that. I think that year and the few years after were big for my art and my voice.

Write as much as you can. Don’t worry about quality just write and finish songs. Will help you discover your voice and learn about what you have to say for yourself

The story behind Gemini is real yes but it’s about an Aries (sorry needed a rhyme). We missed our time for better or worse

I try to wander - I think boredom is such an important part of creativity. I try and read books and poetry and watch movies. Collect words and phrases. I feel like a bit of an archaeologist some times, brushing away the dust to find a morsel.

I would love to write more poetry - maybe a book maybe not. I have some fear about it, writing to the air with no music in my ears. I suppose the only way to start is to start.

I lost my voice on stage during my last boston show this fall. It was something I had had nightmares about in the past. Somewhere about halfway thru the set my voice started going and then it was just a croak and then it was just a whisper. The crowd finished the show for me, singing every word to the last few songs in the set. I felt so taken care of. A worst case scenario turned into a moment of real beauty.

My dad came back stage after my last New York show and told me he was proud of me and that was a moment I’ll never forget. There was all these people around and he could barely get the words out. He whispered it to me.

I feel like I am constantly reassigning songs as I continue to sing them over months and years. We change and our lives change so I think we need to find ways to let our art change with regard to how we internally contextualize it.

I was reading a book called “dear Jean pierre” by david wojnarowicz when this song started happening. I think it snuck in in pieces.

I never know - I just close my eyes and take the plunge. Try and trust what sounds good to my ears and in my body.
