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

There are a shitload of songs about being in love with someone who doesn’t love you back and I talk about weed and my cat and being lazy a lot.

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

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 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.

Needs Thinking Writing
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?

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.

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.

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
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.

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

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

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

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.

I’ve always been interested in fashion, and Urban Outfitters presented me with a huge opportunity to pursue that interest.
