Songwriting is like a therapy, it's a connection that you have with another person, and I'm not scared of it at all for some reason.
What's really cool is to be able to write music and have people around the world [who are] able to relate to it. They tell you that [your] song helped them get through a divorce or they got married to that song. It makes me want to keep doing that for [myself] and for people.
Writing is my therapy. My feelings build up inside of me and then I sit down and write a song.
I think the older you get, the more you know about life, and the more you learn about yourself and you become comfortable in your own skin. So the older I'm getting, the more fun I'm having.
I usually end up falling for one of my really good guy friends because I know everything about them, and you fall in love with their personalities, and it makes them become attractive to you in your eyes.
When I turned 19 I kinda realized that I needed to write my own songs instead of singing songs written by other people.
Well, I started writing songs about three years ago when I learned to play the guitar, but I've been singing since I was eleven.
I miss everything about you. Can't believe that I still want youAnd after all the things we've been through.
Taking a song and bringing it to life in a professional recording studio can be an intimidating process at first; I know it certainly was for me. So to be able to offer support and guidance to an emerging singer-songwriter is a huge honor. I look forward to playing a role in such an exciting time of someone's songwriting career.
I pay attention to how I look but I don't let it go too far.
Talking with my friends and family every day helps keep me grounded and connected to home. They are the most important things to me.
