“It's always hard for me to put the pieces together when listening to a...” — Coy Bowles Quote

It's always hard for me to put the pieces together when listening to a finished album that I was a part of writing and playing. There are so many memories wrapped up in each note and each song that it's hard not to constantly flash back to what made that musical event happen while listening.

I live a life of creating, sharing music with wonderful musicians that I love like family, and spreading a message through music that life is yours to live wide open, and do it your way with love.

I grew up as an only child, so inherently, most of my life was centered around me. My parents taught me to play well with others and to share my toys, but I was still an only child who didn't have to share my parent's attention with siblings. As great as my childhood was, I always wanted brothers and sisters.

I'm so grateful to have been raised on love and to be so in love with my wife.

Even if I would have left on a good note, there is still going to be people who don't like you, who don't like what you stand for. I can't worry about that.

I never look at a note. I just roam the stage. The people do not want to leave.

If there was a wrong note, it didn't matter as long as it was rocking.

People should look up to me. Young kids. I am a good role model. I'll show them how men should really be. And kids can take note from that. I am a good role model. Lots of kids look up to me.

It's much easier when you start the season on a positive note and not have to fight from behind.
