I grew up hard. I picked cotton and plowed with the mule and fixed the cars and played with the guitar and the piano.

My dad didn't want me to play guitar. He played piano, so I chose that. And I ended up loving it.

I grew up with the piano. I learned its language as I learned to speak.

I actually first picked up an ukulele before I picked up a guitar.

I was a regular hand when I was 7. I picked cotton. I drove tractors. Children grew up not thinking that this is what they must do. We thought this was the thing to do to help your family.

I own a guitar, a piano, a bass.
