Perri: "When people come to my shows, they have the freedom to feel something, and we're all just a big bowl of feels."

Perri: "What I really love is touring on a bus with my band playing shows every night and feeling the audience, feeling the presence of people actually listening to my music. Feeding my soul is what touring feels like for me and I absolutely refuse to have a bad time doing something I really, really love."

Perri: "Do what scares you, your dreams are there waiting for you."

Perri: "Everything around me inspires and influences me. Mainly love - falling in it, losing it, loving it and hating it."

Perri: "I depend on my family and friends a lot. I have a group of people I'm always honest and current with. I try to get through pain and not go around it, it always ends sooner that way."

Perri: "Learning to let things go is key for a good quality of living."

Perri: "I was kind of an outcast in school 'cause I always kept to myself and was writing poetry and then going on tour with my brother band all the time, so kids didn't know what to make of me."

Perri: "In real life, I'm such a dorky, happy person. I express myself in three ways: I talk a lot, I write songs and I get tattoos."

Perri: "You need to love yourself and be yourself one hundred percent before you can actually love someone else."

Perri: "I took time off from school and traveled to Italy when I was 19, living with my extended family members. I must have slept in 30 different houses those months, taken in by people who'd never even met me."

Perri: "I try to get through emotional pain and not go around it, it always ends sooner that way. I also use chocolate."

Perri: "Emotionally, it was the hardest 33 days of my life, but it was worth it because the result is that this album is 100 percent me. It’s heartfelt, real, bold, honest, vulnerable, hopeful, strong, poetic, bluesy, gritty, pretty, and simple."

Perri: "Music has been my everything since day one. It's been my shoulder to cry on, my rock and my best friend."
