The most rewarding thing of my success has been the ability to use my music for many different causes that have become important to me.

As a sports fan, the Los Angeles Kings winning the Stanley Cup makes me feel very alive.

I'm a family guy. A lot of my songs are inspired by my kids. Simple relationships. Watching them grow up, watching them share experiences with me and vice versa.

I was able to truly immerse myself in the record-making process. I'm excited about music.

As a songwriter, I think that comes with the territory. The older you get, you like to say it doesn't matter, but you care what people think about what you do.

We all have our fears, our insecurities. I'm not different from anyone else.

I've learned that love takes priority.
