Quotes

"As much as I love his tunes, the way he's gone about his business over the years has been just as inspiring to me," he said. "He takes it incredibly seriously, yet keeps it really loose and fun. That's a balance I've always tried to live by. I want to keep surprising myself, as well as anyone that cares about the stuff I make. I'm not sure there's a better embodiment of that quality in music than Neil Young."
