I think there's no limit to ambition, and if you want something, you can make anything happen, so go for it.

I want nice songs. I don't want to worry about where I have to place songs on a playlist. I'm looking to make genuine, great songs and put them together into albums.

I've been able to do a lot of cool things. That's always the dream for any artist.

When I fifteen or sixteen and was in London, moving from a small town and now going to a big city, I discovered so much new music. Finding all of that music and being inspired that much all at once, that was the benefit of being from a small place.

I've never been uncomfortable sharing stuff. It's almost the opposite. I'll say the most blunt, brutally honest thing about any situation.

I like being at the front - it's where I'm meant to be.

I'm afraid of peacocks.

I realized that you can achieve so much at the front of a stage, releasing the music yourself and being something more selfish than just the drummer.

As long as you're being yourself and putting out what you want to put out, it'll be the best thing you could do.

Really I've just gotta be making really great music that I love and not worrying too much about what other people are gonna think about it.

I love things that are really linear and perfect and simple.

I'm not very good at a lot of things that aren't music. This is the only thing that I love doing, so, like, why wouldn't I make this my whole life?
