Music is something I do full-time in real life. I was doing music long before I was even thinking about acting.
For me, life is like an act within itself. Everything I do is an act. Where I'm going is an act.
I grew up very poor in a fractured family that was dysfunctional on both sides, but I sort of put up these reflectors to most of the negative things that have occurred in my life. I don't carry around much baggage.
