I've been playing one way or another since I was about three years old. I don't remember not knowing how to play any instruments.

Some guy is good at putting these verses together, and some guy is good at singing them. That's just the way it is.

I don't care too much for thinking about the past. The truth is just another story. You can remember it any way you want; it's never gonna be the same twice.

There's this food that's evolved over thousands of years and people have made their own kind of thing, but it's not art-food, yet. It can be, but it's just food. It's the thing that people do because they have to, because they need it. I feel music is one of those things, too.

I play popular songs. This is not some obscure, unusual music. This is popular music.

I just started playing music on the street and walking around with a fiddle, and I think that's kind of when I started being serious - or as serious as it's going to get.

Some people are good cooks and some people are good... I don't see why you have to do all of that.
