That's been the coolest thing about all this - I get to meet people that I worship!
I just do the same stuff I always did. I have a bigger apartment - that's the main change.
I didn't think it was fair to my music to label me as the daughter of somebody - I didn't think it described me very well and I didn't think it had anything to do with my music.
Breaking up is just hard, even if you're the one breaking up. It's not fun. It can be dramatic and complicated. And then you get a little distance and you think, why did it have to be so complicated and dramatic?
I became a musician so I wouldn't have to get up at 6 in the morning.
I like my life. I like my friends. I don't want to go anywhere else.
All is fair in love and songwriting.
If I make a record I love, then somebody will like it. Maybe not everybody, but that won't matter.
It's important to keep indie record stores alive because their unique environments introduce music lovers to things in a very personal way.
I don't try to sound like anyone but me anymore. If something is out of my element, I try to avoid it.
I wasn't a trained Mickey Mouse club performer. I played in jazz clubs and restaurants.
The coolest thing I've gotten to do in the past few years is guest star on Sesame Street.
A record is just a snapshot of where you are at any time.
I just want to make my music, and I want it to stand on its own.
