My tour manager, I met him at Boot Barn. He was selling me a pair of boots... and he said, 'I moved to Nashville to be a tour manager, and I need work right now,' and I said, 'Man, I don't even have a tour manager. So you can tour-manage me.'

I do gravitate towards the sad songs because I find them to be more of a challenge for me from a writing perspective. There are things about those songs that do touch people in a way that a fun song can't.

It's awesome to have friends among the country music community that you know are looking out for you and that you are excited to get to see on the road.

It's been cool to watch the fans who've kind of always been there for me. That's just a special feeling every night: to go out and know that there is people that are proud, not just to be at the show but proud to be your fan, and they're invested in what you're doing.

Me and my cousin started doing CrossFit in my barn; I haven't looked back since.

When I was so fatigued that I couldn't move, the excitement of going to the barn and getting my foot in the stirrup would make me crawl out of bed.

My husband is from Florence. And he has a 15th-century barn that is completely rustic and very 'Green Acres'-like.

I'm just disappointed the folks never took a picture of me when I was five years old jumping off the barn into a haystack with my Superman cape.

As I look at the barn in my ninth decade, I see the no-smoking sign, rusted and tilting on the unpainted gray clapboard. My grandfather, born in 1875, milked his cattle there a century ago.
