Falling in love is awesome, but I'm never drawn to happy songs per se, so whenever you sit down to write a heartbreak song and you're happily in love, it's like, 'OK, now I have to go back to a sad place to get something good.'

I think I find new idols every day - someone that says something really inspiring, is successful, has character.

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

Texas people are really strong in their roots. I started writing and playing guitar at 17. I've always loved music, and my dad is a singer-songwriter.

Both my mom and my grandma were really big influences on me not only by being strong and teaching me to be strong but also owning their salt as well.

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

I'm married to my best friend!
