American Mars Quotes
Karla and I do have different influences but we always felt that those made the band more interesting to ourselves and to our audience. When we made "Late" Karla was listening to a lot of Jeff Buckley and this friend of hers Brendan Benson, which I think is where the popiness of "Queen Bee" came from.

Most of the songs are written acoustically and then built up from there. Our guitarist Gary and I just got done doing a series of shows as a duo where we both just played guitar. I was real nervous about doing it at first, but in many ways it was a great experience for us as musicians and me personally as a songwriter. It was good to find out if the songs could stand on their own without all the bells and whistles. I think they did.
