Music is the embodiment of my soul. When I play, I'm not performing a song: I'm becoming it.

I am not a genre-based artist.

I always play barefoot. I can't play with shoes on.

I construct myself and do things how I want to do them, because your artistry is a very precious thing - it's ultimately your whole life if you want it to be.

Music is multi-dimensional: it's all in the feeling. Sometimes I feel like looping; sometimes I don't. Sometimes I want to strip it back, play instruments I've never played before.

I'm actually a massive dork; people just don't know that.

Pretty much everybody loves music. Like, there are those weird people that don't like music, and I don't really understand that at all, to be honest.

I just have this real love and connection with what I'm doing when I play music.

I've got a lot of pedals and a lot of knobs that need to be switching around during my performance, so I've taught my toes how to do that.

I've got to deal with some stuff in my mind that's pretty scary.

It's like being in a trance, like I get this electric current through my fingertips. Sometimes I shake. People say I look like Hendrix when I'm about to rip a solo because I move my shoulders like he does and do the chewing.

I love the fact that there are so many people who have come to appreciate what I'm doing. That is just the best feeling in the world.

A lot of marathon runners access flow state. That's why it's so addictive: because they just get into this state where they're just completely one - they are in complete oneness. That's what happens to me when I play music and, I suppose, a lot of other people, too, which is why we do it.

I wrote 'Jungle' in my bedroom when I was having a manic time with a particular girl. Everyone thinks it's this really upbeat song, but it's not; it was just a really manic time, so I wrote a song about it.

It would be arrogant to come to music only thinking about success.

If I'm in a good headspace, then it doesn't matter which direction things go.

I've played music that's terrible in the past, and not everyone likes you, which is fine.

I can live on the road, no worries, because my life is scheduled, but when I come home to myself, that's what I'm worried about, finding the balance.

Music saved me from a really dark road.

I find it hard to settle into a normal, routine environment.
