If I have an audience, I'd like to make music for my whole life. But it's not really up to me.

Music is a performance and needs the audience.

We simply write the kind of music we enjoy most and hope that our audience will enjoy it too.

You create a community with music, not just at concerts but by talking about it with your friends.

I want the audience to be so involved in the sweep of the music.

You have to be willing to deal with the ups and downs of the music, the ups and downs of the audience.

I think, in music, you're always hoping that you'll have a like-minded audience and that the music you like making will appeal to them, too.

I just want my music to involve an audience in what's taking place onscreen.

My audience is a huge part of my success, so I see us as a team. They send me tons of song requests every day. Some of the songs I've never heard before, but I listen to them and then pick the ones that I love.
