and check out Vermont. So, we did—and immediately fell in love with it. It
was just one of that kind of crazy life moments where it just made sense to
make a massive change and almost embrace the polar opposite of what we
were living through in L.A. And we love L.A. It wasn’t a total, ‘we hate L.A.
we gotta get out’ type thing. It was just it felt like, okay well we’ve been here
quite a long time and it would be really fun to go and do something else. We
moved here in the summer of 2016. We bought a house, we renovated it, and
enlarged it. I built an office, and I continue to work in music. I love being
based here.” Are you a music maker?
On American Idol
“When I was running music for American Idol, we had quite a big team
of people, because it was a big machine to run. So, we had a really good,
handpicked team of people who ranged from quite experienced right down
to very inexperienced, but they had the right personalities and the right
skill sets and the right, more than anything for me, kind of moral compass
as well. I think one of the things I’m most happy about with that era of my
life and career was that we created a very loyal, committed, strong team of
people that really had each other’s backs. Hugely. It was a really rewarding
part of my life.”
