I came to New York to be a fine artist - that was my ambition.

New York is the place that made my and other artists' dreams come true by giving us a chance to realise our ideas and concepts. It was a great place for making a presentation of artistic creation.

Location is a very important aspect to songwriting.

There are certainly some artists in New York that I would love to work with. One is Sarah Michelson.

I enjoy being in New York. I have so many fans here that sing all my songs from start to finish.

When I was in art school, there was a stigma attached to coming from comfortable suburbia. If you were from Great Neck, Long Island, you couldn't be a 'real artist', so I found crafty ways of implying that I was from New York.

When you live in New York and are an artist and are interested in people, you meet a lot of people.

I make music for the whole world, not just one borough.

I am really heavy into songwriting.
