I feel very honored to be playing with Bill Pierce. He's such a great musician.

The simple things in life ground me and keep me focused so Im able to do a good job with what is in front of me.

I think Wes Montgomery is the greatest jazz guitarist that ever lived.

The things I really learned, I learned from watching my parents. They take care of business. Always have.

In most places that are rich in guitar culture, everyone uses their fingers, like in Spain or Africa. In Japan there are string instruments played that way. It is not until you get in the States that you find people using picks.

Serious musicians are finding it harder and harder to have a voice in the world of music these days.

My love life doesn't stink; it's nonexistent.
