I want there to be a piece of me in my music, you know? I genuinely believe that's the secret of all the success that's happened (for me).

I've learned people are watching, so don't do nothing stupid.

Hawaii is paradise. It sounds cheesy to say it, but there's music in the air there.

I love doing shows. I love rocking shows. I love playing instruments. I love singing. If I can find a way to do that and feed my family, then I'm a happy man.

Someone told me something that stuck with me: "You have to envision your life, and then go backwards." I've been living by that motto for a while, so I see where I need to be. Now I'm just backtracking and trying to get back up there.

Becoming famous was never what I wanted to do. There's a lot of things that come with fame - it's what people in the limelight have to do.

You have to be who you are, and hopefully they dig it
