Ive always seen myself as sort of this funky, eclectic artist.

I think somewhere in the back of my mind I've always wanted to make a whole swing album.

For some reason, the concept of writing with swing chords was intimidating.

But it's just been recently that Nashville has started to feel like home.

I made a Christmas album a couple of years ago and just put it out on my Web site. It kind of smacked of this flavor. All of the reviews said it was Western swing even when it was Christmas standards.

I've always loved to sing.

I think it's going to take my whole life to sort of get people to know what my perspective is.
