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.

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

Done Fashion Involved
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 was never really that great at sewing, but I had a good idea of what I wanted things to look like.

That, to me, is what I feel like is the future. If I have a daughter, if you have a daughter, becoming that ideal where it’s not about your gender; it’s about us being human, being in this together.

Becoming Daughter Together
I was looking at pictures of cats laying out on the beach and I thought, “Cats hate water, so why would they like the beach?” But then I realized that cats like to just lay around and lounge and be lazy, and what better place to do that than on the beach?

Beach Cat Hate
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 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.

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

One of the cooler moments of my life was sitting front row at Helmut Lang!

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

Beach Modern Party
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.
