Music Quotes

• We love all kinds of music: We love pop music, we love rock music, we love R & B and country, and we just pull from all our influences.

• We start a lot with melodies and instrumentation and trying to figure out good melodies for verses and choruses.

• I mostly stayed in the background. I was doing quite good, but I wasn't interested in most of the subject-matter. I only found music and languages to be absorbing.

I couldn't take schooling seriously although I'd love to go back and really learn now - it wasn't what I needed at the time. My mind would wander.
