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

I think the attraction to country music is the fans, the lure of the hardcore fan base.

Even with all the negativeness of the whole social media thing, I still think it's leaps and bounds more positive.

If there are people out by the bus, I'll come off the bus and sign autographs, too. I always want to be accessible. I always tell my fans, 'If I ever get on the bus and don't come off, it's because I'm under the weather or I'm really tired.'

Growing up in Georgia, my dad was a farmer and we worked in agriculture, so we were always looking up at the sky, checking if rain was in the forecast. That always set the tone for the mood in my household, whether we had rain coming in or not - we knew the crops would be good and it was going to be a good week around the Bryan household.

I'm a really, really optimistic and really, really positive person. My main thing is, 'Enjoy life. Celebrate life.'

A lot of people don't have near the amount of success as I've been blessed to have, and it's all about working hard and hoping that continues.
