Billie Marten has finally learned to stop thinking about what others want to hear and to trust her own instincts. "When I'm trying to write, the creative door is closed most of the time. When it briefly opens, I know I've stumbled across moments of true emotion and insight; they give no warning and are often unpredictable. I can't force the process, something I'm realizing more with each album. And that's why I know that Drop Cherries is a collection of songs expressing genuine intuitive feeling," says Billie Marten.
