On making debut holiday album A Very Darren Crissmas: “I feel like at some point in a musician’s life, we all wonder what sort of Christmas album we would release. It’s a genre that happens once a year and you can’t avoid it. I’m a big fan of holiday music and I’ve always been fascinated with how the rules change just for the season. I’ve always wanted to make a Christmas album, but I didn’t want it to be a cash grab but a significant part of who I am. Arguably this one could be one the most personal.”

On juggling multiple projects: “You know, if I have five plates spinning, one’s gonna fall so I guess a hurdle is trying to really make sure that yes, I can keep the plate spinning, but not at the expense and not at the jeopardy of longevity. I thrive on chaos and, and I work best doing a lot of stuff, but I am envious of those that can just really focus on one thing and have done very well doing that.”

On life pausing during the pandemic: “All I see are the things that I haven’t done, maybe that’s my own neuroses, but if anything, I should take more time to appreciate what I have done because all I see is the vast landscape of things that I have not done yet. In my mind it’s a lot of output, but like low visibility…it literally took a global shutdown for me to just have time to read and invigorate my mind and consume culture the way I did when I was a kid. That was a dream. I would have preferred it not be by way of a global crisis, but like many people, the silver lining is I did get the time to do a lot of stuff that I, that I’d always want to do.”
