“I feel like a lot of music producers have, like, the same toolbox. And I think, like, to me, as a producer, like, I want something to set my stuff apart.”

I am just fascinated by music and I want to know how to identify all the things I love about it; to me music theory is like learning another language and then being able to explain how much you love something more clearly.

I love pop songs so much and I don’t put a ton of pressure on myself as a solo artist to always write the most commercial feeling thing, I just want to write things I would love to listen to.

My dreams as a kid were so far below the Grammys, like, maybe selling out a show, or, like, seeing your album on a shelf in an Urban Outfitters… and the Grammys are so far above that. It’s very ridiculous.

I never get tired of writing about love.

If you need to record live instruments, especially drums, it’s still best to do it in a studio.

To be honest, I’ve found so many more friends in the music industry than people I disagree with. I certainly haven’t been made to feel like an outsider.

Everybody has different taste and everyone’s favourite song is different and that’s great.

All the albums that I grew up listening to were produced by one person.

Love has always been the most important thing to me and the thing by which my life is guided.

I feel like you’re able to be your most creative in private environments, and not a studio where an A&R person is coming in, telling us a song isn’t a smash.

We wrote and recorded the ‘Bond’ song on a tour bus in Texas.

As soon as you make anything that people like, you get all these new artists hitting you up like ‘I want to sound just like Billie Eilish.’ And I’m always like, ‘Absolutely not.’

For me, I’m going to try to make my favorite song over the most popular song.

I just have no interest in being at a party.

I really always wanted to be an adult. I didn’t really like being an adolescent at all.

When we are making a song for Billie I want it to resonate and speak the truth with her and want it to be a piece of fabric she can wear.
