I'm a car singer, in fact sometimes I pretend to take my dog out for a walk, and I'll just drive him around and start singin'.

I consider myself a bassist first.

Whenever I'm feeling kind of down or something like that, or even good, the song 'Bohemian Rhapsody' by Queen is a go-to song of mine. It's like watching a movie, but with your ears.

In my spare time I like watching TV, laying on the couch, just chillin'.

What I really like doing is taking risks, musically.

I feel like there's no subject that can't be sung about. I wrote a song dedicated to people with inflammatory bowel disease, and then I wrote about shoes. And mangoes. Every rock should be turned.

If I shave, I don't have a chin anymore.

I like kissing people because it's funny.

I have musical ADD, so I like to switch things up.

You know I want to sing for people, I want to jazz people up I want to make new music that they've never heard.

If you're a good singer, you're going to make anything sound good.

My favorite sexual position is when the girl is facing Mecca and I am fighting off a wolf.

I read all the time. People ask, 'Do you read while you work?' And I say, 'I better.' I take two or three years to finish one of my enormous books, and I can't go that long without reading.

Doctors take the Hippocratic Oath too seriously, as an imperative to do everything for the patient regardless of the cost or effects on others

Mary Gauthier's great. Yeah, we've played a lot of gigs together. She's really wonderful.

Everyone should say what they wanted. It saved time.

This is my life. it is my one time to be me. i want to experience every good thing.

I think there are few things more patriotic than taking the time to make your country a better place.

Most men appear wiser in their doubts than in their belief.
