“Every time I tried writing my own songs, they would come out very country. I couldn't fight it, and the more I listened to country music, the more I loved it, and it just became very natural.”

“Sitcoms always made the most sense to me. I grew up watching them every day with my dad. Every Monday, Tuesday night, we would be sitting in front of the television watching any kind of sitcom. I connect with that more, but I love to do whatever kind of role.”

“I love Whitney Houston. I absolutely love her song, 'I Wanna Dance With Somebody.'”

“I don't mind putting my heart out there for the audience, and for the country music fans... to be vulnerable with them... that's my job as an artist.”

“One reason people are turning to country music is because of that non-music called rap.”

“Someone might look like an overnight success, but there's a lot of hard work that goes into it, and rightfully so. That's the way it should be. There are exceptions to that rule, but in country music, people really have to pay their dues.”
