I grew up singing in Kansas. My dad had a band when I was growing up. So I sang in church and school and started singing with his band when I was seven. So I've been singing all my life.

I wanted to make a record that people could put on year after year after year, and it would never feel dated.

I have a really amazing fan club, it's contemporary but it's a little bit old school. There's a lot of connection. I have a fan club president who really responds to people.

I can't be the big star in the family. We have a family, and we are all equal.

I love to sing with great singers.

I definitely feel a difference about my place in the industry. I feel like I have some longevity now.

It's not the size of the house. It's how much love is inside.
