There is a great feeling in a small venue, with the closeness of the people and the intimacy.

If I wasn't my age, I would turn a flip. I would do some cartwheels. That's how I feel.

I feel so good singing songs that I sang with my father.

We enjoyed the fact that we were called to the folk festivals and we got to know Joan Baez, Dylan. We were singing strictly gospel, but then after we started hearing songs that they would sing, we saw that those songs were very fitting for us because they were singing the truth, and truth is gospel.

I was not fortunate enough to run into Obama. We were at the same church per se, but I would never be there when he was there.

I won't wear rings and jewelry on the stage because I don't want you looking at my hands. I want you hearing what I'm saying.

I'm just singing what I feel in my heart.
