I’m just being myself. There is not an ounce of me that believes any of that crap that they say. We can’t be feminine and be feminists and be successful? I want to be a f-king feminist and wear a f-king Peter Pan collar. So f-king what?

I’ve been writing music since I was about eight. I would write sporadically. I wrote a lot of music in high school. I guess the oldest song on the record (“I Thought I Saw Your Face”) is about eight years old.
