Be In Control. Know Who

I Love That I Can Talk To My Fans Through Twitter, To Cut Out The Middle Man. Because I've Done Interviews Where My Words Have Gotten Twisted, So It's Nice To Be Able To Have Things Coming Straight From Me.

My Mother Is A Singer, My Sisters All Sing, My Uncles Are Incredible Singers And Guitar Players, So It's Just Kind Of Been Like My Habitat.

Writing For Other Artists Helped Me Figure Out That Magic You Have To Capture To Make Everyone Connect With A Song.

I Grew Up With So Many Different Songs That The Ones That Are Fun To Play Are The Ones I Want To Do.

I've Had Big Record Label Presidents Look Me In The Face And Say, 'your Music Sucks, You Don't Know Who You Are, Your Music Is All Over The Place, And We Don't Know How To Market This Stuff. Pick A Lane And Come Back To Us.'
