Everybody always wants to rebel against their parents' music, but nobody listened to music louder than my dad.

Dude, everybody wants to be Andre 3000. He's got abs for days. How does that guy get so ripped?

My dad is my biggest source of inspiration. He's a lawyer, and when he'd get home, we always sat down and listened to music.

The Black Keys is just a band that wants to get on stage and rock it.

Being 16 years old and getting an electric guitar is never going to get old. There's always going to be kids making music. There's always going to be kids in bands.

We are a generation of women that has listened to the much louder voices of parents, teachers, employers, husbands and children while our own voices were small or muffled or totally ignored. Aging Out Loud gives us permission to not only listen to that voice but heed its warnings, laugh at its jokes and follow its directions, without guilt and without looking back.
