“I will never phone it in on stage. If i have the flu and there's three people in the crowd for a solo gig, your gonna get the same show you got last week with the band at 17th Street Stage. It's not even intentional, it just comes out that way. I also love playing for children. A child's honesty and sense of wonder when engaged by live music is nothing short of magical. To have the same affect on an adult audience is my ultimate goal in the realm of live performance.”
