“Completely' is a very simple celebration of the most awesome thing in the entire world, the love of our God.”

“I grew up listening to Papa Roach, and I used to love Jimmy Eat World and the more slightly emotional rock type of stuff.”

“I actually started playing drums because my older brother did and I grew up always wanting to impress my big brothers so I got really good at soccer, I was really good at sports in general and I thought what would be cool is if I learned the drums, 'cos then they'll think I'm awesome, right?”

“Truthfully, I wanted to be a hairdresser in Coventry, England.”

“It makes me so incredibly humbled and moved that God would let me do something with music when I see how much he uses it to just change people.”

“I want to write music that actually matters and to be able to make a difference through song.”

“Something I've fought a ton in my life is fear.”

“Don't try to conform to things you know will impress other people.”

“I've noticed that when I write I tend to have slightly poppier melodies.”

“Often, you can feel like God's stirring things in your heart, but then you don't see them when you think that He was going to bring them.”

“My advice to people who are nervous is take that pressure off yourself and try and enjoy yourself up there and play the things you know how to play well rather than stretching yourself to play things you can't do well, and you'll sound way better and people will enjoy your feel a lot more.”

“I'm edgy and rocky, but I'm also soft and got a little bit of pop in me too.”

“My whole life is because of Him.”

“Religion felt gross to me so I walked away from everything.”

“When Skillet asked me to try out, I said no because it scared me.”

“All my emotion and all my heart go into my playing.”

“The biggest thing that I've learnt, which I feel like I stress all the time to people, is not panicking about playing like other people - which just sounds so simple and cheesy but I used to get really locked up because my sound isn't really flashy with the drums.”

“Truthfully, the only reason I'd ever want to do music is if it brings people hope.”

“My British accent often made me close my throat and sing from all the wrong places.”

“There is nothing better and greater and sweeter than the love of our God and the fact that I can rest in that for the rest of life. It's simple, but it's profound and I think it's absolutely worth celebrating.”
