I always want to make an album that lets people immerse in it, kind of like you get caught up in a good movie.

I'm a little drunk on you, and high on summertime.

Anything I've ever read by John Irving has been really well written.

Our crew guys, it's amazing what they have to go through to make a show happen every night.

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.

People hear me talk and they know my background and they immediately stereotype me as being a real, real country guy, and that's the right stereotype. But you also want people to know you're a little broader than that, too.

A big part of country music is a way of life, at least from my standpoint. That's how I craft my music from my own life experiences.
