Things that I would say or would like to saw are just easier to sing about and put out there in music.

I don't think anything can touch the expressive range of the guitar.

Most of my songs start out as being very aggressive and guitar-driven.

There's nothing like a music festival. People are ready to have a good time. I don't think anyone comes to a festival going, 'I'm gonna be a complete bummer today.

I am the type of artist where you can't tell me anything. I have always been that way. I am right. I don't need any input.

All I can do is do what I can do, and do what I know how to do. I do what I love to do, and that's pretty much it.

For a black male, the sound of the blues is pre-Civil Rights. It's oppression.
