I love the live cut part of making records the surprises are the prizes.

I don't like modern country music. It's not what I'm into, is all. I'm old-school.

It was hard to work and work and work and not get your music played on the radio.

I don't think I've ever put it in words before. But daddy took a gun and ended his life and took momma's with him.

I feel like records are moments in time, a modern moment that feels right then and it found its way to us then, that minute. We can all try and repeat records we have made that had success, but it's not possible.

I have never had a problem letting a record go.Honestly when I'm making them, mixing them Honestly when I'm making them, mixing them.

So it's the greatest compliment in the world when people want to hear you sing. That means it feels good to them, so I keep doing it.
