I'm easily distracted by other things in the world around me. ”

I feel fortunate that I was able to step away from it when I wasn't interested. ”

I love working with the quartet. I have more freedom and flexibility. ”

My first love was the sound of guitar. ”

I love all kinds of music. ”

As far as other instrumentalists, I used to love mellow sax players like Paul Desmond. I love piano. ”

I really just followed my musical instincts every step of my life. ”

My earliest influences were things I heard in my household. ”
