I've always been shy, but I see that as a good thing because it kept me focused on music. When I was in seventh grade, I asked my parents for a mobile recording system for Christmas, and I got it. I didn't come out of my room for years after that. I'd get invited to the movies and I'd say, 'I'm gonna finish a couple of demos.'

I am a huge, huge Ronnie Milsap fan. I have been for a long time.

As a new artist - I don't care who you talk to - I think everyone would agree, it's hard to get your expectations right.

Any time I write a new song, I am jazzed about it for like 24 hours and then I am over it and want to write another one.

When I was in high school, I had binders with pictures of tour buses.

I love flying planes.

I just love music gear, I'm a total geek all around.
