Dan Smith

I love David Lynch’s style. Someone once thought I was his son, so I must have been doing an alright job at emulating it.

Dan Smith

I love wearing Converse or Vans and wear a lot of bombers or denim jackets. I’m also a bit of loser, so wear a lot of film and band T-shirts. My friends say that I look like a cartoon character because I’m always wearing the same kind of stuff.

I once went on a date where the girl drove and so couldn’t drink. I was nervous, so drank quite a bit – it didn’t end amazingly. As much as I love movies, I think cinema dates can be weird because you essentially sit next to each other in silence for a couple of hours.

I don’t necessarily feel 100 per cent comfortable standing up on stage in front of lots of people, but I don’t think most people would. It’s a pretty bizarre thing to do.

Reading interviews with other people, I see them say, ‘All I want is for our band to be massive’, but it was never an ambition of ours to be in a band that’s this big. That’s so far from how my mind works that I find it puzzling. There’s nothing wrong with being ambitious, but we’re not.

My songs used to be significantly more bizarre. I used to play a big electric piano and a loop pedal. I was really into Regina Spektor, and I liked her narrative lyrics that were quite off the wall. I used to layer things up and try and replicate what I’d been doing with my bedroom recordings.

Dan Smith

I’m not interested in writing overtly autobiographical songs. I would rather explore interesting stories. I like the idea of the songs being evocative and distinctive, so I have in my mind the atmosphere that a film could evoke. I like to think of them existing in their own little world.

Dan Smith

It’s such an interesting experience seeing how different people react to music and the generosity of some and the craziness of others – people who go see bands in different countries, know all the words to the songs, and get tattoos. It’s so unexpected.
