I've been in fortunate position of never really having to battle with my record company to do the things I wanted to do in the studio.

Probably my favorite artists to listen to James Taylor, Stevie Wonder - I haven't gone back in a really long time and really listened to them - my first guitar influences. It's been awhile since I revisited that.

Right, yeah, you know, my favorite thing just globally about music is just hopefully I'm able to be, you know, blessing the people in any way that I can.

I think it's like everything you do is just a reflection of who you are as an artist.

I've probably gone a month or two without playing guitar, just because I've gotten so burnt on it touring all year or whatever.

I really enjoy what I do and have been fortunate to pursue basically whatever I'm feeling at the time.

It's an honor to win a Grammy, of course.
