But before you answer that, because you called your new album The Fellowship, How did you get your fellowship, your band, and how did it expand over the years?

OK, great question.

So one thing that's been really important to me is that I've never wanted to just sit in my room at home on my computer and make music by myself.

You can certainly do that now because of the technology.

But for me, music and community is way more powerful now.

It's way more powerful because of the compromises you have to make to make the music not 100% your own.

So I love the fact that the vision is shared by all of us and we all kind of debate and fight over what the music should be.

I hear and see a band that is lockstep and is the happiest when they're together doing what they love.
