I can't imagine anything more worthwhile than doing what I most love. And they pay me for it.

We started out when I was 6 years old. We played ukuleles and sang Everly Brothers songs.

When you record for a label, they own that material in perpetuity, meaning that they can release, chose not to release , or repackage it any way they so choose... with or without the permission of the artist.

The mountain is high, the valley is low, and you're confused on which way to go. So I've come here to give you a hand, and lead you into the promised land. So, come on and take a free ride, come on and sit here by my side, come on and take a free ride!

As far as I'm concerned, blues and jazz are the great American contributions to music.

The most profound, tangible influence in my life has been my wife, Monique. I don't know that I would even be alive were it not for her, and I certainly would not be the person that I am today.
