Sometimes I joke around that if I weren't a musician, I would be a power lifter. I don't think people expect it from me because I'm little.
My job of being a musician in a recording studio has nothing to do with being a musician being on tour performing.
When I was younger, I was always a musician that could play by ear better than I could analytically.
I'm not a good enough musician to like completely master something in a couple of days and turn it around.
Even my family laughed at me because they thought this young guy who's always stuttering in front of other people should be in front of 100 musicians and talk to them and leading them.
A devastating culmination of the elegant and the funky, a really sensational musician with enormous depth.
A true musician, like Johnny Cash, should be able to walk into a room with nothing but an instrument and capture people's attention for two hours.
musicians rarely have a sense of humour, at least, about themselves.
What you learn from working with other performers and musicians is invaluable, really, and can only help you grow. I mean, if you spend your whole life focusing on yourself, you're not really learning much.
Musicians are the architects of heaven.
When I look back on my life, I don't have regrets about what I didn't do. If I'd become a musician, it could have ruined my life.
I never became primarily a musician! I've always been a wanderer and I'm always bored.
I was feeling privileged and self-conscious about my life as a musician, which feels self-absorbed. I can't help it, I am a musician. This is what I do.
I'm not a musician, I just play bass.
I think filmmakers all secretly wanna be musicians and all musicians secretly wanna be filmmakers.
I didn't really think I would be a musician. I always thought I'd be a writer. I wanted to be a writer in college, but I thought I could be a better musician. I loved the process of writing music and lyrics more than I loved the process of sitting at my computer and writing. Because of that, I thought I would be a better musician than a writer.
As a musician or a performer, you're meant to know what you're about, but it's ridiculous that someone 14 would have any idea of what they're about.
I thought "I don't need to reach out to my fans, I don't need to have that dialogue with them. " But as a musician, you have to constantly - especially since my music is not on the same level as my acting - you have to connect with your fans. I actually feel like I have developed friendships through Twitter, people that I've worked with I can kind of keep up with them. I've totally turned a corner. I get it. And Instagram.
We were brash young fellows. I was always hanging with the older crowd anyway. The musicians were the Hip Cats, and I was hanging with them anyway. I Just started out real early.
I don't want to be some actor talking about how he wants to be a musician. It's something I'm really passionate about and I don't want to be spouting off at the mouth about something before it's out there and can speak for itself.
