As artists, we should endeavor to collaborate with people who remind us that being the most talented swine in the room is the enemy of growth, catastrophically boring, and must be avoided at all costs.

Working with Gideon and Gabe Klein is kicking my ass in all the best ways, inspiring me to write from a place of previously untapped vulnerability. I’m digging deeper than I ever have.

I’m so happy this new band’s becoming such an important part of my life.
