The songs come from a vulnerable place, but expressing that part of yourself can also make you feel fearless.
I never excluded any genre on my first record.
I'm a big fan of '70s records where artists could draw on whatever influences they wanted.
I'm sure every song has some kind of undertone of what I was going through with Chris. It was my life.
I've been in LA for 5 years now, and it's been very freeing creatively.
