I started playing in bars when I was about 15 years old, and there are things that I saw early on that really shaped who I am.

When I was a kid, we always had big gardens, acres of stuff we grew out in the yard.

Ill never be, like, sippy cup country, or write about everything I do around the house.

I'm a songwriter; that's where it starts. I love writing with someone that shares that same feeling of accomplishment. I'll play music for my fans as long as they'll listen, but I fancy myself as a writer first.

I started playing guitar before I can really remember, and I started writing really early, too.
