If you are a young girl who wants to be a country singer, just don't try to do it too early. Be a high school kid, be a cheerleader, do your thing. And also, just know who you are; know what you want to say and stick with it throughout.

When your roots grow out and things go south, go back to the salon

I think the unconditional love you get from an animal, especially a dog, is better than anything else.

People naturally change a lot during their 20s, so my songs reflect that progression.

I really think that being yourself, being original, being outside the box is starting to be appealing to people.

Heartbreak is good fuel for country songs. And cheating.

I feel like I've started to grow up and be more of a woman instead of this crazy girl.
