It's taken me years to embrace the softer elements of who I am and let that shine some.

If you think too much about something, you're not feeling it.

I insist on the truth. I surround myself with people who tell the truth.

I don’t have a problem baring my emotions in music. That’s one of the reasons I’m glad to have music in my life. I’m pretty resilient as far as being a human being. A lot of songs write themselves.

I am very picky about my people and my beer.

I still believe in the old-school show thing no frills, no fancy equipment just a guitar and some amps and some drums, and throw it out there and do it the best you can in a live sense, because it's easy to make records. But the live show is where you really show if you've got the balls to do it.
