Being a musician is what I do, but it's not what I am.

I identify more as a musician than as a singer, because I play piano and percussion, and I engineer and produce everything that I do.

A lot of the way I sing is playing off other musicians. It's what I love to do the most.

Being a singer is a way for me to get to a platform to do more.

I prefer to think of myself as a musician who is still learning and trying to do something every time out.

I consider myself as a singer first, but something that really helped me come into my own is that there's not a separation between me singing and me playing the guitar. The two fed off the other.

The one mentality I've always tried to have is that no matter what stage in your career that you are in as a musician or a performer or a songwriter or whatever, there's always more to learn.

I mean, I don't even think of myself as a musician, really.

Often, when I work with a vocalist, I like to focus on the melodies first.

Like most musicians, I'm good at becoming immersed in the music that I am currently working on. We seldom lift up our heads to contemplate even the music we will be doing in the future, let alone what we've done in the past.
