Modern Recording Has Made It So That

I Feel Like I Can't Fully Understand What's Happening Now Until I Really Understand What's Happened Before. But You Do Get Sort Of Bogged Down A Little Bit When You're Trying To Study So Many Years' Worth Of Music. It Can Be A Little Bit Overwhelming.

I've Always Straddled A Weird Line - There's A Lot Of Mainstream Stuff That I Love. At The Same, I Still Feel Like An Outsider. I'm The Outsider Who's On The Inside.

I Get Really Insecure Because Even Though I Can Speak In Musician's Terms, I Don't Know As Much As Real Musicians.

When I Got A Little Bit Older I Wanted To Play Piano - That's All I Wanted To Do. I Remember Learning How To Play A Blues Progression On The Xylophone In Music Class And Thinking "this Is The Greatest Thing I've Ever Learned."

In A Sense, I Like To Think Of The Live Performance As Something Different Than The Record, Not Necessarily Looking To Exactly Recreate The Record. Sometimes Matt And I Just Do Duets Folk-style. Part Of The Fun Of Seeing A Live Show Is Having It Be Different From The Way That You Hear It In Your Bedroom Or Wherever You Listen To Music.
