“You could put this record on and not get jarred half-way through. I wanted it to be all cut from one cloth, and that was the way we took it through the whole production process.”

“I taught myself how to play when I was about 13. I'm a lefty.”

“Rewriting to me means, if I work on it for three days, I've rewritten it.”

“I had 25 or 30 songs. Sequencing the record, I left that to the producer. I'm not into doing that stuff.”

“Every one of the songs was based around picking an acoustic guitar. That was part of the concept from the beginning, that the tempos were going to go from slow to almost mid-tempo.”
