I don't write on tour. There is so much to do day in and day out when you are on the road.

I like being on the road, living in hotels. While I've got a real nice house, I go crazy when I'm there.

When a song gets its legs and begins to come to me, this is the euphoric hook that keeps me wanting to continue.

I don't like looking back.

I was born in Alabama and my first live music experiences were in church. Every Sunday we watched regional gospel groups on television singing their hearts out

By the time I did that third solo album, I'd finally learned how to do it, but I'd also learned that I liked being in a band

You can have fun, but you also have to put on your thinking cap every day
