I try to make my music have the quiet spaces of folk, the intimacy, and the energy of rock.
Harmony is when the sum is greater than the parts. A happy exaggeration.
I think, because I'm an artist, part of my job is to be a barometer, an antenna. It's in the air and it resonates with a lot of people to lighten up.
I was raised on pop music. Anything classical ran together in a complicated blur.
I think judgment is from within. It's not a God judging. Someone who is nasty - they're the one who has to sleep at night.
I see more people taking on the cloak of accountability, more people tiring of the blame game. If we are all connected and our actions in Australia affect us in Istanbul, then we are all to blame and all to be healers. We can't blame lawyers anymore for the 'liability' vs. common sense imbalance.
I brought a Border Collie back home to Vancouver from Wales - where some of my ancestors are from - and needed to challenge him in other ways than just being my pet. So I investigated sheep herding and took a few lessons, and decided I was probably learning more than my dog!
I tour alone. There's no sound check, no back up. I stay with the hosts I am in a family home and it's really nourishing. I just have to remember after the show not to run out into the living room in my pyjamas. Every day, it's a new relationship being built. It's odd and wonderful.
I tell everyone a different story. That way nothing's ever boring, even when they turn and say goodbye.
