That's my ideal day, time with my boys.

I approach everything in my life the same way; if it feels right, I know it.

I'm responsive to my public, but I also follow my heart.

I listen to all the top 20 songs, and top 20 albums, even the rap albums. But I don't like negative messages. If somebody is putting a lot of ego out there, I don't like it. When I make my records I want it to be sincere.

What is music anyway? It's a form of communication, and that's why I play the kind of music that I think - that I hope - can communicate with people.

I learned so much about playing and touring being on the road and in the studio with Jeff, but I'd always played a lot of gigs in Seattle even prior to joining the Fusion.

The Moment is an album that contains the best music I have ever produced.
