So happy that Broken Bells is a thing in my life and really cool in so many ways. Not only, like, as something to sell records and be a band and whatnot, but just to give me an outlet and give me a fresh approach on things.

There's not a lot of thinking that I need to do away from the studio on Broken Bells stuff.

Let's pretend my career in music is a bell. Whether you like my music or not is up to you. But you've got to admit I rang that bell pretty hard and pretty often.

There's some bells you can't unring.

I love hip-hop; I love Sleigh Bells. I also love classical music and musical theater.

Music breaks my heart constantly.

I've always been incredibly lucky that the music that I make, other people like it.

Anything can become a musical sound. The wind on telegraph wires is a great sound; get it into your machine and play it and it becomes interesting.

I've rung my bells so many times, especially back in the day when chair shots to the head were legal. My goodness, I took so many of those.

I've made music since I was a kid so I've always gotten joy out of that.
