The ‘Maybe Memories’ album I remember having and listening until it broke. I remember it skipped one day; two or three songs wouldn’t play on my CD player because I listened to it so much. – Kellin Quinn
When I went to shows with my friends, it was all about the experience with my friends. If I met the band, it was cool. But it was more about talking about the memories of the show with my friends. – Kellin Quinn
For any band that ends up becoming really big, yeah, hard work has something to do with it, but a lot of it is just pure luck. – Kellin Quinn
I think fans going to concerts expect more today in terms of meeting and things. It’s cool – I get it because of how the Internet has made things much more personal for fans to follow with Facebook, Twitter and everything – but I also think it’s kind of hindering because it takes from the music in a way. – Kellin Quinn
A huge thing for me growing up was going to see my favorite bands and feeling like, ‘Okay, cool, they proved themselves and did things in a special way.’ That’s the most important thing. – Kellin Quinn
When I was growing up listening to music, it was 2004, when The Starting Line and Finch and The Used were kind of my favorite bands. – Kellin Quinn
I am always thinking about writing music; my wife is constantly asking me: ‘Is there any way you can turn off the music part of your brain for a minute?’ but I really can’t! It’s my form of therapy. – Kellin Quinn
I grew up listening to The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, and every record those bands put out was very unique in its own right. I have that mentality. too: if a song sounds like something I’ve already done, then I’ll throw it out, because I want each record to be a progression. – Kellin Quinn
I know that starting out as a young band, it’s really easy to get lost with bands that sound the same or with the plethora of music that’s out there. – Kellin Quinn
It’s kinda weird sometimes going on tour with bands because you never really know what to expect. – Kellin Quinn
