I thought being on stage was an amazing feeling, but there is nothing that can top watching my wife bring our son into this world.

I am just what I am, I'm just what you see. So I'll make it easy, I'll stay me.

I'll always have songs with a farm connotation on my albums. It's in the fabric of my music, and I plan to keep it that way.

I think 'Country Girl' is one song that can veer into country or hip-hop or rap. You can listen to it and enjoy the humor and the fun in it.

Early in my songwriting career, when I was learning a lot about writing songs, I'd force myself to sit down until I came up with something.

My path is exactly where I want it to be. I'm doing my thing. I'm getting better with every album.

I always want to have a personal relationship with everybody that works for me.
