Quote

Music is a lens through which to see who we are. Every phrase of every piece of music is trying to tell a story.

I've always said that music is like literature.

I've always hated narrative songs. I hate those songs where, basically, it's an unfolding of a story.

Music helps me tell my story. That's where I can really be heard. But there's so much focus on the things that aren't music.

I try to tell a story musically in a song.

Storytelling is about listening in any media.

The narrative of serial art works more like music than like literature.

I always write my music based on what is going on in my life at the time.

Sometimes it feels like my story overshadows my music.

Music is a dialogue.
