I don't know anyone who is a writer who isn't influenced by the relationships in their life.

Nothing is more powerful than beauty in a wicked world.

Genre, to me, is not all that important, and it never has been.

People love music, they're always going to love music, it's our job to consistently push ourselves as artists to keep delivering stuff for people to stay engaged with.

Country artists have advantages all over the place. The radio support is incredible. The fanbase is rabid, all over.

I can relate to soul, R&B... whatever people want to call me is fine. I just hope it makes them feel something.

I'm not afraid to be bluntly honest in my songs, even if it means I'm discovering things about myself that I'd rather not.
