I hope that my journey inspires kids from all around the world to pursue their passions and work hard for their dreams.
People feel so much more comfortable bullying behind a screen than in person. It gives them a mystique and makes them say things that they would never be strong enough to say in person.
I have been a lover of the sea ever since I can remember.
John Mayer is the epitome of the lead guitar player so I sent him an email with a bunch of my music and he sent back really detailed advice.
Our society is set up in a way that's so against the natural state of nature, and the way it's all initially intended to be. I kind of have to - not rebel, but peacefully rebel, in a sense - and do my part to protect it, regardless of the way that society is set up.
The Wish Factory did a tremendous job and I am amazed at how closely the doll resembles me. The clothes are modeled off actual stuff I wear, which is pretty cool.
I think everyone should get out and go for a surf.
I've grown up listening to Jack Johnson and John Mayer. But I also love to groove on stage like Justin Timberlake.
I actually grew up listening to country music.
I grew up a competitive swimmer. I wanted to go the Olympics. Both my parents were professional swimmers. I competed internationally quite often, right up until I moved to California to pursue music.
It's my biggest advantage with girls - I'm going to try to keep my accent as much as can.
I like girls who are laid back and fun to be around.
I first picked up a guitar at seven after watching Dad play at backyard barbecues.
I'd like to be the best boyfriend I can possibly be.
Jack Johnson, John Mayer, Neil Young and Bob Dylan are my main influences.
I'm pretty drama-free.
All my close friends are normal dudes and then I will hang out with some girl who is a musician and everyone thinks that's what it's all about.
Obviously spending my teenage years in music, and in popular music, I wanted to continue this career, but in a way that allows me to dictate it and create it myself as opposed to relying on third party or more corporate decision making.
I'm very, very, very romantic.
The very first time I came to The States I came right to New York and I remember walking around Times Square, I saw a couple of shows and I thought, 'I'd love to come here and do this.'
