Quite frankly, I've always listened to the black side of the radio dial. Where I grew up, there was a lot of it and there was a lot of live music around.

I would say that I'm finding my voice in more ways than one.

I feel fortunate that I was able to step away from it when I wasn't interested.

I'm easily distracted by other things in the world around me.

I really just followed my musical instincts every step of my life.

I was a guitar player first off.

I am not a jazz singer. I wouldn't place myself on that footing. I wouldn't even enter that arena.
