My goal is that when the last song is over, and you're walking back to the parking lot, you're already on your phone searching to find the next show.

Yeah I'm chillin' on a dirt road, laid back swervin' like I'm George Jones.

Hearing people clapping draws you in pretty quick. It's like bungee cord jumping - it's a rush; you just want to do it again.

I had no idea 'Big Green Tractor' was going to be as big a hit as it was. You just can't predict those things.

I didn't get into music to become famous and I didn't get into music to become rich either - I got into because I liked it.

My road trips have been to Vegas, but you know, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.

I think if you play music and you join a scene you're already too late.
