Zitat des Tages von James Vincent McMorrow:

I never was the front man in any bands I played in when I was in college, and I always learned music by myself at home.

I remember always looking forward to listening to country music in the car with my mother, and it wasn't even something I enjoyed in the sense of music, but just being around music itself was enough.

I was never a 'sit down with a notepad and write lyrics' kind of person.

My favorite records are not easy - they're not records that reveal everything to you the first time out.

I've got an Avalon guitar - that's the company that used to be Lowden. They come out of Ireland, and they're like these folk kind of guitars. You can pick 'em, you can strum 'em - they're quite good.

I have some vivid memories of walking around as a child with a cassette tape.

My first record was made in Termonfeckin, which is a small town on the north-east coast of Ireland. I had been in London, but it didn't click. So, at home, I didn't think about making something, just whether something could be made. There was no grand plan.

James Vincent McMorrow

I don't function well in certain aspects of society, and you can read into that what you will.

I'm learning on the guitar all the time.

I'm mostly a keep-to-myself kind of guy, but you slowly find yourself getting folded into the musical tapestry.

I didn't really learn how to play guitar until I was in college.

When I first saw Drake, I thought I was never going to like him based on the person that I saw on T.V. He's just so full on, and he's got the ladies' man thing, which isn't necessarily something that would resonate with me.

James Vincent McMorrow

You just wake up and make music.

James Vincent McMorrow

I'm very ambitious, musically - I want to create great things, not mediocre work.
