How did you end up getting involved with Cat Power?

I got involved with cat power through the good grace of happenstance it feels like. I’m very happy to be a

part of it.

2:11am -- Traveling in this way gives you the keen understanding that nothing in the world is yours.

Nothing in the world is lasting. You develop coping methods, like using

photographs to remember

How much of the planet have you now gotten to travel through as part of your touring? Is there any time to stop

and enjoy the scenery, or are you constantly on the go?

We’ve done two U.S. tours, Australia, Europe, UK, and a couple dates in Asia within this year. We’ve had amazing

moments of stopping to enjoy the scenery, and some moments I’m glad I’ve captured in photos because I

most certainly wouldn’t recall them as well without the second memory bank.
