I have a lot of different collections of cards at home. It's hard to say my favorite deck, but there is a deck called the medicine cards, and it's Native American animal cards.

Im constantly being inspired by the old days and taking things from the past and allowing them to lift me up where I am now.

My challenges have not been around music. My hardest thing in music was just sitting down and teaching myself how to play and believing in myself.

I try to write down every song that comes to me, even though I know that every song that comes to me isnt a song that I need to sing.

As I try to get around with a guitar, a banjo and a suitcase of high heels and dresses, I treasure that little ukulele.

When I think about singing, and music, I think about how the people who live on the East Tennessee side have more of a curve or yodel to their voices, and then you think about the curve of mountains.

There are so many different versions of "Tennessee Waltz" and they're all so good.
