During college I realized I had a music predisposition and really got involved in it. I started playing bass guitar. That was how I began to fit in.

I don't walk around with a cowboy hat. I did get a tattoo that says 'cowboy' that's a bit of an over-compensation, probably.

I don't have any hobbies. Music is my hobby.

Country fans are the most loyal in the world.

I grew up in trailer houses in New Mexico, Arkansas, Texas and Oklahoma.

I want to die on your chest but not yet she wrote sometime in the 13th century of our love

Woe to the man who tries to stretch the imagination of man He shall be mocked he shall be scourged by the blinkered guardians of morality.

Show me a man or woman with a mission, and I'll show you somebody that's tougher to beat.

As you've probably discovered, great work makes us uncomfortable.
