"You might see someone with dreadlocks and label them a hippie in your head, but that doesn't mean they think of themselves that way. A lot of people look at me and see I have a beard and shaggy hair, and think I'm a hippie. I'm not a hippie, and I'm not not a hippie. I don't know what the f**k I am."
"I'd love to have a lifetime career. If you look at people like Bob Dylan or Neil Young, people who have been there forever and who still make relevant music that people want to listen to - that would be amazing. I hope to be able to do that. But above all else, I feel like I just want to be happy."

"People always want reasons for things ... but sometimes there are no reasons."
"You can drive at 16, go to war at 18, drink at 21, and retire at 65. So who can say what age you have to be to find your true love?"
"Don't let your silly dreams fall in between the crack of the bed and the wall."
"Some things cannot be explained. This is part of the magic of life. There cannot be a word or an idea or a definition attached to everything."
"Louisville is a place with no labels. It’s not the South, it’s not Chicago, and you don’t think of it as you think of New York or LA. It has some Southern romanticism to it, but also a Northern progressivism, this weird urban island in the middle of the state of Kentucky that has always provided a fertile, often dark, bed. For us, Louisville and the surrounding areas are the center of massive creativity and massive weirdness. The place has its flaws: You move away, but you’re always going to come back."
