Interview:
The ability to influence, and leave “change” in the wake of its influence is what makes music spiritual to me. I believe in its highest form, it can move us toward better things, creative things, and inspired things. In it’s lowest form, it can debase us, aggravating the dark things that we all deal with. Somehow, it does this, at times with and without our permission, bypassing our usual defenses against change. In that riddle, lies the “spiritual” significance of music for me.
“The ability to influence, and leave “change” in the wake of its influence is what makes music spiritual.”
