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

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.

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

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

Touring is definitely work. You’re spending a lot of time in the car and around the same people and it’s not the easiest thing in the world, but it’s better than working a 9-to-5 job or something.

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 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.

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 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?

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

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

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.
