"This record is about recognising in myself that I am not this one-dimensional character. Sometimes musicians, artists and writers try to paint themselves as this one “self” and I think I’m a very fragmented, mixed up [person] … like we all are. It’s about admitting it, I’m not perfect, in some instances of my life I can be a complete shit. It’s not something I’m proud of, it’s something you’ve got to face at some point and say, ‘Right, how do I make it better, how do I move on?’"
