I'm a writer who performs. And I mean, I'm basically a writer. I've been doing it since I was 16. ... For me, the balance between the two, the writing -- a year, two years, whatever it takes to do an album, and then you've had enough of writing and thinking and being introspective and all of that kind of stuff, and you want to get out on the road and you want to, you know, get into the physicality of performing.
