My dad is very successful in his business. He's always been big in having hobbies and having little ways to get away. He always made time for hunting and fishing. He always encouraged me to do it.

Anytime you have a fellow artist say, 'Loving the new Luke Bryan album,' that's awesome.

When the show opens, fans can text to a number we flash up on the screen, and then we do a meet-and-greet with 60 to 80 people every night. It's something I love doing, and I would say that's probably more fans than most artists bring backstage after a show.

Nothing is more rewarding than to take a song, create it out of thin air and then watch it affect people.

Rain makes corn, corn makes whiskey.

I will always really work hard to write as much as I can, but I also love sitting back and waiting on those big Nashville songwriters to send me some great songs, too.

That's gotta be the one remaining constant - jeans have gotta be tight, baby.
