Just because you make a good plan, doesn't mean that's what's gonna happen.
I never want to end up being a self-centered, vain human being.
I have to practice to be good at guitar. I have to write 100 songs before you write the first good one.
I get nervous for everything - literally everything.
So many girls come up and say to me, 'I have never listened to country music in my life. I didn't even know my town had a country-music station. Then I got your record, and now I'm obsessed.' That's the coolest compliment to me.
I really believe we in the music industry can work together to find a way to bond technology with integrity and just really hope we can teach the younger generation the value of investment in music rather than the ephemeral consumption of it.
