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 don’t think lyrics need to be deep – just write whatever comes out of you. You don’t need to find intense meaning in everything.

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.

Bedroom Song Touring
I don’t really pay too much attention to designers, I know what I like and I just try to find it, and I always try to find a cheaper deal because I have a tendency to be a cheapskate sometimes.

Attention Pay Trying
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.

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 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 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?

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.

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

Making music can sometimes make me a bit restless, so it’s fun when I get to be expressive in another way.

I’d love to have a shoe line, or a sunglasses line, or a purse line. Who am I kidding, I’d like to have an everything line!

It’s scary when you get to a point where you write these songs that people like, and then you think, “Am I ever going to be able to write something better than that?”

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

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.

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