Having A Simple Career As A Musician

I Believe In The Person I Want To Become.

When I Got To New York City When I Was 18, I Started Playing In Clubs In Brooklyn - I Have Good Friends And Devoted Fans On The Underground Scene, But We Were Playing For Each Other At That Point - And That Was It.

It's More About, When I Found Someone That Made Me Feel Really Happy, That Was So Different To The Way I'd Felt Before In My Life.

I Knew I Wanted To Do Something Creative. I Didn't Think I'd Have The Luxury Of Doing Something Like That, Because I Didn't Know Anyone Who Had Pursued Anything They Really Adored, But I Had Dreams For Singing Or Writing.

The Thing About Me Is, Coming From An Alternative Music Background And Singing For Nine Years, Being Basically Invisible, I'm So Used To Writing For Myself - And At The End Of The Day, I Do It Because I Feel Like I Have To. So When I'm Recording Or Writing, I Don't Have Other People In Mind.
