Tags: Dreams, Real, UntilI dressed up as a veterinarian for a Halloween costume party. I had the lab coat. I got a couple of stuffed animals for patients and put bandages on them.
Tags: Halloween, Party, PutMy older sister encouraged me from early on and bought me one of the first guitars I had. She listened to all of the crappy songs that I wrote when I was 8 years old and encouraged me to keep doing it.
Tags: Keep, Old, SheAfter it's finished, sometimes I can trace a path that goes back to the possible source of inspiration.
Tags: After, Path, SometimesI learn all these things about the record talking about it after it's finished.
Tags: After, Learn, TalkingI often write either really early in the morning, or really late at night.
Tags: Morning, Night, OftenSome things remain fragments, just the lyrics and melodies or a line or two or a verse.
Tags: Line, Lyrics, RemainEveryone is looking for connections between the songs. I don't usually approach a record as a concept. There's no overriding theme I'm trying to represent. It's all about the individual songs.
Tags: Between, Everyone, TryingI end up writing about all kinds of things. I never make an attempt to write about anything in particular. I don't have a little list of topics to write about.
Tags: End, Write, WritingI see some recurring themes: things that feel threaded together, some symbolic references, and songs about some of the big questions, like death. There are a lot of references to weather, too!
Tags: Big, Death, TogetherThe songs are not necessarily autobiographical. A lot of songs are a combination of influences. It might be some part of my life, or something I've felt, or something somebody's told me. It all comes together.
