I Don't Want To Be Known For

My Girlfriend Is A Fashion Designer. She Has Her Own Company Called Rachel Antonoff. She Is Doing A Collaboration With Urban Outfitters Right Now, A Shoe Collaboration With Bass. She Sells To Barneys, Stuff Like That.

I Don't Play An Instrument - I Just Write In My Head, And I Usually Hear Fully Formed Songs. 'we Are Young' Turned Out So Much Like It Was In My Head. But It Also Exceeded All My Expectations.

Van Morrison Is Probably, At This Point In Time, My Biggest Influence As A Vocalist. When We Were Making Our Last Album I Had A Vinyl Copy Of 'veedon Fleece' In The Vocal Booth In Front Of Me, In The Dorky Sense. I Think There Were Candles Around, Which Is Really Tacky, But Hey, I Needed To Channel Van The Man!

I Kind Of Like Being Depressed.

I Tried To Play Bass In A Punk Band Once, And It Was An Absolute Disaster. I Can’t Play Anything. I Don’t Know What It Is.
