"Alison Lohman is an amazing actress. I was so proud to work with her."

"It could be fun to sing with Prince or Michael Jackson. Justin Timberlake has an amazing new sound now."

"It's really hard for actors to cross over and get any respect as a singer, and if I could just keep it separate and not use my music in movies, it's cool."

"My dad was a musician and I traveled around with him, so it was something that I knew."

"As a brother and sister, our tastes were pretty different growing up. He liked a lot of early hip hop. My dad didn't understand it and would try to talk him out of it."

"I would go visit my mom on Sundays, and my brother was working on stuff. I'd go in there and sing a little melody, then we started working with words and the next thing you know it was just born organically without really trying."
