“Music has been, in my family, a huge, huge thing, and I think that it's sort of helped me evolve as who I am as a person. I think it's important to pick up instruments and learn things because for me it's changed my life. I can write about whatever I'm feeling because I can play guitar. I can just sit down if I'm having a problem, if I'm feeling happy, whatever, and write a song about it and it's such a wonderful release. I think music just makes people feel all kinds of emotion. Music is a huge part of education.”
