'Tailgate Blues' is kind of a lyrical masterpiece of a country song.

My main thing is I'm gonna go out there every night and give it all I got and just try to put on the best show I can. That's just the way I'm programmed and wired.

Nothing is more frustrating to me than putting a song on an album and regret putting it on there. I'm excited that there are no songs on 'Tailgates & Tanlines' that I'm iffy about.

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

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

Anytime I sing the anthem, it is an honor and my heart beats out of my chest.

It's pretty cool to see how far music can take you.
