I don't feel like I'm on a mission. I'm trying to play music that I like to play and like to listen to.

I joke that I've never been burdened by having an actual hit. There's something to that. My records have sold enough to make the record company money to help me keep my job. But I've never had anything so firmly ingrained in the mind of the public that I'm expected to repeat it.

The most important thing you can do as a performer is to be yourself, or be an onstage version of yourself. If youre not being true to yourself, and somebody likes that other version of you, youre kind of stuck.

That's right, you're not from Texas. But Texas wants you anyways.

Home is where my horse is.

Fortunately, I've never had a job
