I'm trying everything I can not to be jaded 'cause I don't like jaded musicians.

People want to see musicians sing things that come from their own mind and own heart in real time, responding to the moment for them.

Trying to impress my mother with words was one of my favourite pursuits.

I've figured out my learning curve. I can look at something and somehow know exactly how long it will take for me to learn it.

I believe in blues, and I believe that it's been misrepresented.

I'm getting to a point where everything is becoming streamlined in my life. I'm learning how to stand onstage for two hours and play in front of thousands of people as if I am completely in the moment every moment.
