I've always liked Frank Sinata and Big Band music.

I loved making Pure Country. It was a great learning experience for me, seeing another part of the entertainment industry.

All my Ex's live in Texas, and that's why I hang my hat in Tennessee.

My son had toyed with the idea of writing and trying to write a little bit, so that kind of gave me the bug to write also.

I was a young troubadour when I rode in on a song. And, I'll be an old troubadour when I'm gone.

I'm not out there trying to change the world. I'm just out there trying to sing country music the best way I can.

This is the kind of problem you want to have! Country radio has been great to me my whole career. I can't thank those folks enough.
