I've made a life and career as a professional musician.

I mean, I grew up with pretty down-to-earth, atheist parents, but I was born a Pisces.

The intentions of record companies are not good, from the musician's perspective.

I made money. What am I gonna invest in? Stocks? No. I'm going to invest in music.

I've grown so accustomed to my life in L.A., going to a Coffee Bean or getting breakfast at Kings Road Cafe. I've seen a lot of the world, but the diversity we have here is different. It's a mishmash, which is a nice comfort.

I think it's important to stay curious and see and experience as much as you can, whether it's art, performance, music, travel, or just hanging out and people-watching.

Whatever course you have chosen for yourself, it will not be a chore but an adventure if you bring to it a sense of the glory of striving.

Having to travel so much plays havoc with your personal life.
