By then everyone in the audience was laughing because I felt comfortable about everything. I just really want people to leave our shows feeling like they know who I am, what I believe in, and maybe pay attention to words of songs a little more, realizing there can be meaning in four minutes. Within that time, there can be something that they can take home with them that crystallizes a thought or feeling they ve had. In the end, I want them to feel something about me, but also a little something about themselves and sometimes, when there s a really big message, I want them to feel inspired and comforted. I ve written songs about good and bad relationships because I ve been in them, and I ve written songs about having lost a sibling because I have lost one of my brothers.
Many people don t have someone else that has been there, too.
And so, I want to leave people feeling comforted about their own situation and knowing that they are not alone. Overall, I want them to have enjoyed themselves, and that enjoyment can come about for a various of reasons hopefully one of them is my work. Well I ve enjoyed talking with you and look forward to listening to more of your songs, listening closely. I also look forward to hearing you live.
