I’m working all the time. When I’m home I try to split my time evenly between resting and preparing for another tour, and writing stuff.

I am a true believer that a record should not be a bunch of songs that sound exactly the same.

I like the 50s, party-movie aesthetic of the beach. I’m not really into modern-day beach.

I don’t really listen to a lot of 90s alternative indie female stuff anymore, but I loved Liz Phair and Kim Deal when I was younger.

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.

Stevie Nicks has always been my fashion icon, so I wanted to blend her infamous witchy style with the 90s valley girl theme that I was so entranced by as a young girl.

Fashion Girl Icons
It’s very strange that people would consider me a fashion muse but it’s also flattering. I try to just be myself, and wear what’s comfortable and makes me feel good.

Advice I would give to anyone trying to find their own personal style: don’t copy anybody, just be yourself, and make your own trends.

Advice Being Giving Yourself
I love clothes so much, I always have. It’s awesome to have designers invite me to their shows and openings and send me samples of their work.

I went to school for a short period of time to study fashion. I wanted to become a stylist or a designer. I made clothes when I was a teenager that I used to sell online. My label name was “Baby Jesus” – so incredibly stupid, but whatever, I was 17!

I buy most of my clothes online, I just sit around and look at websites and say ‘oh that looks cute’ – and then I just buy it and hopefully it fits because buying stuff online is always sort of risky.

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.

I think it will be fun to not only play new music, but to get to play different instruments on-stage.

I always get pissed that I can’t make my voice sound like someone from the 50s who had a very girly, innocent voice, like Leslie Gore.

I found all these stupid pictures of cats at the beach, and I was like, “They get it, man. They totally get it.”

Beach Cat Stupid
We went from being a band that was recording songs in my bandmate’s bedroom to a band that’s doing extensive touring and had a record on the Billboard charts and everything happened insanely fast, but it’s not something that I sought out. It just happened.

Getting to be involved with fashion is one of the coolest things I’ve done.
