I try and eat good. On the road, that's next to impossible. And we eat a lot of unhealthy things when we're in Texas - that's what you do there.

New York has always had a love for Southern artists. There's no place else that makes me feel like the city does. I just love the immediate nature of the city, you can get whatever you want whenever you want it and do whatever you want whenever you want to.

There's no such thing as a teenager that listens to a single word their father says.

As a southern man, there's two things I'm definitely not scared of: bow ties and white pants.

I've got a 27-inch waist. Before, I was stupid smaller. Finding clothes in the South was impossible.

I've never been good at rock'n'roll songs, anyway; either I'm blessed or I'm cursed, but whatever I write comes out sounding old.

All my records have been written to be records, rather than writing a group of songs and seeing if they fit together.
