Well, I’m actually going to be working on my record nonstop. For me, time off is working on a project and writing nonstop and spending all day and all night trying to get the exact perfect word for the third word in the second line of the bridge. For me, my life is a crossword puzzle at times. Like when I’m making an album, it’s all about filling in the blanks and making it click. And when it finally does, it’s so worth it.

I’ve just been kind of making an album and playing shows every week. It’s weird to say that it feels like I’ve settled into sort of a normal routine where I’ll play three or four shows a week, and the days that I’m not playing shows, I’m recording or sitting in my producer’s basement, and we’re like tweaking little things about mixes and adding little instrument parts. It’s really a fun way to live, and it’s a fun way to spend the summer. I’m so excited about just throwing myself into making the album completely, but it does feel like I get some time to go over and check on my condo and the construction.
