Check out some memorable quotes from the interview below!
On owning a motorcycle:
"No. I also made a music video with that, which is going to come out in a month, for "I'm Sorry We Lied." We are making videos for every song. It's like, why not?"
On how he met Florence:
"I guess I was 18, so eight years ago. That's kind of crazy. I think I met her around Elephant and Castle in London. There was a venue there where our friends would put on parties. We became really good friends and would record these albums together and give them to people, put them online or whatever."
On leaving Blood Orange to start a new project:
"I'm not leaving it behind, but I don't have a plan. The next performance I will do will actually be piano-based or cello-based. It'll just be a performance rather than a recording. When I get back from this tour, the next live performance will be me playing piano."
