“Music Should Be Your Escape”

“There was an electric buzzing sound that was constantly on, acting as background music like a million cicadas in the forest. A constant white noise.”

“Driving in your world seems a bit dangerous.”

“And if you tell me yours I'll tell you mine, And we will clean the cobwebs out of one anothers minds.”

“. . . 'Depressing' isn't a word I would use to describe my music. But there is some sadness in it -- there has to be, so that the happiness in it will matter.”

“It was the moment of early spring like the pause when a fiddler has lifted his bow and holds it over the strings, ready to call forth the music.”

“So the floodgates open, but nothing comes out. I’m feeling no relief in my head, just doubt. But my heart keeps telling me, 'hold your ground. You’ll never learn a thing if you bail out now.”
