Quotes

When I first moved to L.A., I noticed a bottle of Moxie Cola in the garbage, and the logo was so interesting to me. I loved the 'X' especially. I was looking for a band name at the time, and I was like, 'I need to do something that has Moxie in it because it just sounds powerful and badass, and genderless.' I wanted a name that was genderless, feeling like I was experimenting a lot. I was like, 'Kid - Kid Moxie,' it all came together. I didn't mind people thinking I'm a dude from the name.

I don't really feel part of any music scene, to be honest. I feel like I'm in my own little bubble, especially the last few years. I never really felt like I belonged in a collective as much. It was always feeling very individual. It was me, my laptop and the city. But that's where I felt more like myself, more productive and creative.

I just figured, about 10 years ago or so, that I wanted to take control and play my own music. My own notes. Write my own scripts, and perform them the way I wanted to. That's when I started doing my solo stuff.
