I like a lot of independent brands – Melbourne’s Kloke, Handsom and Neuw Denim, and Bassike in Sydney. It’s easier to be proud of what you’re wearing if you’ve met the people behind the brand and there’s more of a personal story. Chet Faker Read Quote
I think that connection with humans is so important. Sometimes I’ll do this monologue and talk to the crowd, like, ‘Come on, let’s really connect here.’ I don’t think a lot of people understand it’s a two-way exchange. Some people go to a show and are like, ‘Yeah, you make me feel.’ That’s not how it works. Chet Faker Read Quote
Chet Faker’s a reference to the late Chet Baker. I’m a big fan of his vocal style; it’s quite fragile and soft, and that was a style I wanted to take on. Chet Faker Read Quote

An album is like a book or a diary or a snapshot… It just feels so like the end of a chapter when you finish one. Chet Faker Read Quote
I came second in a 1,500-metre running race at school. I knew I couldn’t have come first, so second was my version of first. Chet Faker Read Quote
