I don't like to rush my music.

I've done a couple of songs which are not up to the mark. So, mentally, I've set a goal that I should be more dynamic and try and push myself as much as I can.

The more I push myself to really live and really experience things and step outside of my comfort zone, the more the songs are allowed to flow.

My fav band is Rush.

Whenever I like a new song, I play it on loop and dance to it. That's my therapy.

I tend to gravitate toward ballads and mid-tempo songs.

I'm not a pop act, churning stuff out really quickly. I find the music that arises from that style of working is distracted, not particularly profound.

I grew up listening to The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, and every record those bands put out was very unique in its own right. I have that mentality. too: if a song sounds like something I've already done, then I'll throw it out, because I want each record to be a progression.

I think that's given inspiration to other musicians. I know, particularly through the 90s, a lot of bands would cite Rush as an influence. I don't think it was so much our music, but more the way we really stuck to our guns.
