Until I was in 6th grade, I took ballet, jazz, tap, and hip hop.

Social media can be so addictive.

You can never maintain a friendship if you don't tell the truth, even if it hurts.

I'll do BB cream or a moisturizing foundation from Laura Mercier. I like golds or coppers on my eyes and a little highlight on my cheeks.

If I could live anywhere else in the world, I would probably want a place back in New York.

Jolly Rancher candy canes are the bomb.

I think, so far, 'Jessie' has to be the show I've loved working on most. Coming in at age 12, I was so excited to work on Disney, since it had been my dream as a kid. I also feel like there was such a bond with that cast.

I personally eat so much food, and I work out a lot.

I normally go for a skinny jean, but I also wear a lot of flares.

I use Bed Head shampoo and conditioner, but I try not to shampoo every day because it's so drying.

I believe I should make the same amount of money for doing the same job as a man.

I'm really glad we have Jennifer Lawrence and Amy Schumer and all these girls who are embracing all the different body types.

So much changes in a year when you're a teenager.

Dance means so much to me. It's always been such a huge part of my life.

There are so many fun places to hike.

The first time I ever came to fashion week, everyone was wearing heels.

I remember I was, like, 6 years old when I found out that I was having a little brother, and I was wishing and wishing for a sister. When my mom came out and my dad, and they're like, 'It's a boy,' Spencer, my twin brother, is cheering and jumping up and down, and then I burst into tears. I was so sad. I was crying.

It takes me so long to take care of my skin at night! My friends will call me, and I'll be like, 'I'm washing my face.' They'll ask me 30 minutes later what I'm doing and I'm like, 'I'm still washing my face!' I use makeup wipes every night - I always like to try different ones, but I really like Aveeno's.

I'm 10 minutes older than my twin brother.

I love to sing - whenever I am not on set, I am usually in my room jamming out with my guitar.

I don't want to be boring, and I never want people to think it's a snoozefest. I want to find the middle point between looking classic and also trying something new.

I think people don't really like change.

The energy in New York is like no other.

I love John Hughes films.

When I was younger, my dad would cook, and I would never really have it, unless it was something like spaghetti. I would only like what my mom made - macaroni and cheese or something like that. But after I reached a certain age, I think it was 11, I realized I liked his cooking.

Nirvana was happening when I was 14, kind of the perfect age. Growing up in Anacortes, Washington, it was close enough to Seattle that it seemed like a local thing.

Recording and touring are totally separate universes for me and it's strange and refreshing when they invade each other momentarily.

My grandpa is the funniest person in the world, straight up. But mostly everyone in my family groans when he is 'on.' I am his biggest fan.

Comedy is deep and wild and I am excited about the mysteries within.

I just can't turn off the part me that asks that question over and over.

I'm not a perfectionist. I don't have enough patience to go over the same details over and over trying to get it perfect.

I'm really nervous about coming off as exclusive or elitist. At the same time, I recognize that when I put out vinyl or an expensive coffee table book not everyone can afford it or listen to it.

Clear Moon' is more... clear I guess! It's more round-sounding and it's slightly gentler. 'Ocean Roar' is more challenging and weird and darker and heavier - the idea was for it to feel like a thick fog laying on your head, versus a clear sky with the moon in it.

I don't really see myself in a lineage which is fine with me. Sometimes I do try to explicitly copy an exact song, an arrangement, a sound - and I fail. And so you can't even tell I was trying to do that thing. It makes sense in my own head but I'm incapable of copying.

They're all true - the cliches like 'one day at time' and 'ups and downs.'

When I first started recording music, I was actually singing about microphones, equipment, recording.

I never want to keep doing the same thing more than once, honestly.

I'm open to making any kind of music, or maybe making no music ever again. That's also an option, always. Who knows what'll happen.

My shows have never been related to my albums at all because my albums have all kinds of crazy instruments and stuff that could never be performed live. I'm used to people expecting this 12-piece band to show up with three drum sets and an accordion.

Even when I was calling myself the Microphones I only really ever played new songs... because I feel, like, a pretty strong connection to the song when I'm performing it.

It's interesting to think about the different forms one place can take.

People used to assume I was a serious/sad person because of my music for some reason.

The Beach Boys were my favorite. I use to listen to their hits over and over, especially 'In My Room' and 'Don't Worry Baby.' There's something really sad about 'Don't Worry Baby.' Even though it's just a California song about racing cars, the melody is really sad. There's melancholy in it.

I want to create a life that is just healthy and peaceful - an enclave, really, of retreat. It's not helpful for the big picture. It's totally selfish to run away like that.

I listen to all kinds of music and sometimes I try to do something that's referential to an era or a genre, but it still sounds like me.

Life here (in the Pacific Northwest, not in Vancouver, Seattle, Portland or the chain of buildings connecting them but in the rest of the place, out west and east from the north-south I-5 river) can sometimes feel like a half-dream, half-myth.

It's nice to have a band that can adapt to whatever show we're in, so we can play on a big stage or a house show.

Music is only good sometimes.

I'm mostly fine with anyone using my music for whatever. Everything's just compost that gets reused.

I got into Nirvana, and it was my sort of awakening into the idea that music could be like rough and crazy and local. And so I started to realize that there were bands playing in my town, Anacortes.
