You know, I was walking through downtown yesterday, and like, there were these people just standing around taking selfies everywhere. And I'm thinking, like, when did this become normal? Like, I don't remember everyone being so obsessed with photos when I was younger, but maybe I'm just getting old.

It’s honestly wild thinking about how much things change. You know, feeling invisible and like nothing you do matters is tough. But finding that person who truly sees you, man, it changes everything. I think fifteen-year-old me would be so stoked to see where we ended up.

So we got this festival coming up, right, and he says, I'm gonna reach out to maybe like 15 artists, you know, get them all together. And sure enough, next thing you know, we've got Miranda, Luke, all these people saying yeah, they're in.

So I actually went back to thinking about how everything is just a sales pitch lately. It’s like, why is nobody just being themselves? I actually want to just speak the way I feel in the moment, you know, without feeling like I’m acting for a video or something.

So we're back in Nashville now, actually recording in this pretty amazing studio downtown, and it's crazy because back in 2010 we were just trying to get our foot in the door here, sleeping on couches, and now we're working with some really incredible producers.

You know, I was walking through downtown yesterday, and like, there were these street performers doing their thing, and I'm standing there thinking, am I the only one who feels weird about stopping to watch? Like, when did I become so self-conscious about everything, but.

Look, I'll tell you this, right? When you're in this industry, and I'm being honest here, you start to realize that, um, balance is everything. Like, I love what I do, I love my fans, but at the end of the day, you gotta protect what's real, what's yours.

Yeah, I was doing this indie film in like 2009 or something, and I'm living in this tiny apartment in Venice Beach, riding my bike to set every day. I'm making barely enough to eat, but you know, that's acting - one day you're on TV, next day you're serving tables.
