No matter what you do for a living all we have is music to get through certain situations.

But once you become successful, everyone has an idea of what you should do.

Any album that I ever put out I'm going to send it to country radio first.

I've been in LA for 5 years now, and it's been very freeing creatively.

I think the themes in my songs are very similar from the first album to the newest one. It's all about the human condition and how we are all trying to learn to live with each other and survive love and life.

I toured in Europe first, before I did any touring in the U.S. It was with Jimmy Nail and others.

My relationship with Music Row has always been, from my end, optimistic and hopeful that there is more than one way to approach the writing, recording, and marketing of an album.
