The advice I have for new artists is this - write great songs and play them live as often as possible. Get residencies all over town and crush it.

Try it first And you'll see its a blessing And it's not a curse

All that we can't say is all we need to hear.

Music is the last true voice of the human spirit. It can go beyond language, beyond age, and beyond color straight to the mind and heart of all people.

The good news is at this point as I get older, the load has gotten heavier but my shoulders have gotten wider because I've gotten happier so it's a damn good thing.

That happens every time I get behind a guitar, regardless of what I'm saying, 'cause music is freedom and being free is the closest I've ever felt to being spiritual.

We're always moving forward in different places physically and psychologically.
