"The moment you have children, it's like your heart gets out of your body, puts on clothes, and walks..." — Johnny Flynn

The Band mean a lot to me in terms of what I aspire to achieve with my group, as the music they made went against the fashion of the time.

Diane Cluck is part of the anti-folk movement in New York. She's got a really haunting voice, and she usually sings in the pentatonic scale.

I fell in love with the legend of Paul Robeson as a kid. My dad would tell me all these amazing stories about his life and, bizarrely, ended up singing to Robeson on his deathbed.

I like really bad puns - proper, red-top, nasty puns - I find them funny.
