One Of My Biggest Problems Is I

I Lived In A Cabin In The Woods In Oregon, And I'd Basically Given Up On The Music Industry For An Indefinite Amount Of Time. And While I Was Out There, I Came Up With A Very Specific Vision Of What I Wanted My Music To Sound Like.

I Actually Quit Music And I Thought Maybe I Chose The Wrong Career. But, I Isolated Myself In A Cabin In The Woods For A While And That's Where I Fell Back In Love With Music. Just Being Isolated Out There, Eliminating All These Opinions That I Endured During My Time In La And The Music Industry, All The Rejection, It Was Really Hard On Me And My Creativity. So By Isolating Myself In The Wilderness, I Was Able To Fall Back In Love With Music. It Was Always Ingrained In Me, Always In My Blood, But I Just Lost It For A Minute.

I Come From A Place Of Darkness When I Write Because I'm Always Trying To Figure Things Out. It's Kind Of Like My Own Therapy When I Write Music. It's Me Working Through My Own Problems Hopefully. And Putting It Into A Song.

Your Personal Life, Your Professional Life, And Your Creative Life Are All Intertwined. I Went Through A Few Very Difficult Years Where I Felt Like A Failure. But It Was Actually Really Important For Me To Go Through That. Struggle, For Me, Is The Most Inspirational Thing In The World At The End Of The Day - As Long As You Treat It That Way.
