My favorite record of all time is Fleetwood Mac’s Tusk. It’s made up of a bunch of songs that don’t really sound the same, but they all go really well together.

There are days where I turn on the TV or I look at the news and I’m like, “I want to go to Mars. This is insane.” But I can’t go to Mars! I need to face reality and just to have some hope.

I think what we do is really, at times, a complicated thing. But at the end of the day it’s so important that we make art for people that need to escape reality for a second. That’s what music has always been for me. It’s been a way to tap out of what’s going on in my personal life.
