“As an artist I write about the world I want to live in. And as a musician and someone who is in the public eye, I think you have this responsibility to influence people.

I want to see the world get better, you know?” PeopleThinkingKnowsWorldWantWritingTryingHeartReasonEyeArtistDecisionResponsibilityInfluenceInspireMusicianConsciousGet BetterPublic EyePositive ChangeInfluencing People Author:Brett Dennen
“I'm a very typical yoga-practicing musician; I do it when I can. I'm not hardcore about it. A lot of my lyrics talk about celebrating life and working through pain.

So I try to just stay present most of the time, I try not to let my mind wander and I also try not to clear my mind. I like to still have thought and be aware of people and whatever that's happening, but I also like to just focus on the words that I'm saying.” PeopleThinkingKnowsTryingMindStillsDifferentClearFocusMusicianSingingHappeningsWanderDrumming Author:Brett Dennen
