When you are real in your music, people know it and they feel your authenticity.

It sounds corny, but I've promised my inner child that never again will I ever abandon myself for anything or anyone else again.

Digital downloading of music has affected us all in adverse ways.

There's just no stopping those girls with guitars.

I am proud that I am a good mother to my children, a good daughter to my mother, a good sister to my sis (Ashley Judd) and a good wife to my new husband.

The mother-daughter relationship is the most complex.

My music is about the journey, about love and the human experience.
