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.

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

You never take your fans for granted. You always appreciate them every show, night in, night out.

You get weird, funny requests on Twitter. With our fan club, I was seeing a lot of fans were having some issue with the way the fan club tickets were being handled in one of the shows. So I was able to correspond with that fan, and be like, 'Listen, we'll be on it.'

You want women to think of you in a sexy manner. It's all part of the business. It drives ticket sales. It's all a part of it.

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.

Tangle me up like Grandma's yarn.
