When I hear bluegrass today, I hear so many new sounds in it. It's almost like country music in a way.

I've always moved by my heart. I've moved by the spirit of what I feel was right for me next. I always pray and ask God: 'What's the next thing? What am I supposed to do next?

I just love to have fun with music, and try to find songs that say something that people want to hear.

I feel like have a lot of music left to cut in my life.

I just want to keep playing music and keep recording. I feel like my best days are ahead.

I had some good teachers. One of the greatest teachers I've had is bluegrass music: going back and listening to Bill Monroe's music, the Stanley Brothers, Flatt & Scruggs. When I was with Ralph Stanley I learned a lot from him.

I look back to when I got divorced in the late 1970s. When that happened, I was so broken up. After that, I decided to seek God for my life and my next marriage.
