I’m not religious in any way but I am very spiritual. Music is holy to me. It’s like my religion. It’s sacred. It feels unearthly; it makes me feel a way that talking to somebody doesn’t make me feel, it’s something you can’t even wrap your head around. It’s not abstract, you can’t even grasp it – that’s what music is to me.

BANKSBANKS Once I discovered how important writing music was to me and just what a huge weight it lifted off of me, I knew that it was going to be the biggest part of my life, the biggest love of my life, the biggest thing in my life.
BANKSBANKS I don’t think of anyone as a ‘groupie.’ People who connect with my music are just inspiring and amazing.
BANKSBANKS A role model for me is somebody who is really empathetic and has a calm strength to them. Sometimes you meet random people and they’re really inspiring because they seem wise; they’ve gone through things.
