I'm somewhat of a hoarder. I keep everything.

The guys in my band buy instruments and sell and trade them. But if I have something I hang onto it. Everything is sentimental to me.

When I got my first guitar, I played along with everything I heard that had guitar in it, like the Ramones, Nirvana and Sublime, as well as whatever hip-hop and R&B stuff was on the radio.

When I was growing up, I would go hang out with older guys at night in blues clubs.

I never expected to be approached for an ad campaign.

There's so much music in Austin, and it's all so different.
