I get to wake up every day and create music. And even when it's a tough moment as far as career ups and downs, it's always something you're passionate about, and it's a beautiful way to spend your life.

Music has always been a large part of my life, and I'm very fortunate to be able to start a career doing something I love.

I'm pretty much living my dream job, but one day I would love to dedicate more time to writing and performing my own music.

Music will always be my No. 1 passion, but I don't have to be doing it professionally. It's not really about that for me anymore. I feel like I don't have to look at it as a career. I can just rest in it and just be.

I'm really passionate about music.

Working on music is the funnest thing for me, and I love it, and I could do it all day, all night.

I have a very clear picture of what I want to do and what I feel is important as far as my contribution or my appreciation and respect for this life that we're living, and to try to make it better. I can't feel that I'm making it better playing commercial music, and I never could, and I never will.

Music is the career I'm lucky enough to get paid for, but I have other desires and passions.

The trouble with making music as a job is that I have no outside interests. All I can do to wind down is go to sleep.

When I'm not working, I'm on the road with my band. Or I'm performing in poetry houses doing spoken work. So I've got another passion and another outlet that allows me to be creatively fulfilled and not sitting at home pulling my hair out waiting for the right role to come along.
