“We wrap ourselves up in social media and fame and forget what matters.”

“I was riding every single day. I home-schooled because of horses.”

“I like writing with people. I think the times that I've closed myself off to not writing with people, I haven't gotten the best product because I haven't had anyone to go back and forth with and really discuss what's going on in my life, what's going on in their life. It's so important to have that connection.”

“I was 14 when I decided I wanted to start doing music and stuff. I was a really big fan of Ben Howard, and he put out a really amazing album in 2014, and then, after being inspired by my dad and Lady Gaga and Ed Sheeran, I wanted to start writing songs.”

“There were so many nerves with putting out new music.”

“Everyone is super creative in the family.”

“I obviously want a safe world for everybody if we're getting really deep, but my safe and happy place is always going to be music.”

“A lot of times, I get what I want to write while I'm driving. I love listening to music in the car, perhaps because of my dad - that's all he does.”

“The first song I wrote was for my friend. She was going through a really tough time.”

“'We Are... ' is all obviously about social media and kind of the insecurities around social media and how people have become addicted to their phones and altered children's minds to what they need to look like, what they need to dress like.”

“My family has never put pressure on me. They've always been supportive no matter what.”

“I take advice from both my sisters all the time. We try to help each other as much as we can without getting in the catty sister fight.”

“I definitely made friends with the people I like to write with, but I'll also write with people I haven't met before or producers I haven't met before because how are you supposed to make those friends without trying?”

“I don't feel pressure at all. I'm kind of a 'go with the flow.'”

“I've experienced cyberbullying my entire life due to just having a last name that people knew.”

“I always like a baggy pant.”

“My grandma is very musical and can play piano by ear, and my grandpa was in a quartet in Kentucky.”

“Do I have a cold heart? Some say.”

“I just want people to know it's OK to really feel their feelings.”

“There's one thing my dad taught me: don't talk about politics, because you'll never make anyone happy. Don't even go for it.”
