New Orleans is my essence, my soul, my muse...
'The Christmas Song,' by Nat King Cole, is not only a masterful performance; to me it just sounds like the holidays. I've never sung it, because Nat's version is so perfect. I gotta leave it alone.
Safety's just danger, out of place.
I struggle every day with trying to be a better dad, a better husband, better musician, better artist. It consumes me, and I don't see an end in sight.
I love my wife and I know she loves me. We're best friends. We're just lucky to have found each other. It takes a lot of work but I just feel very blessed that I found the right person. It's a very fortunate situation and not everyone has that.
With a tone so rich, I would never be afraid of the dark. Steinway is the only and the best!
I have worked with Habitat for Humanity for awhile.
I'm not trying to be romantic. I think you can tell when people are trying to be sexy onstage. When I was doing 'All the Way,' I was really thinking about my wife. People don't know my personal experience, but they can tell it's an honest interpretation.
I think a dad has to make his daughter feel that he's genuinely interested in what she's going through.
New Orleans is a city of paradox. Sin, salvation, sex, sanctification, so intertwined yet so separate.
I sing because I’ve forgotten how to scream.
Everything I do is part of my passion. I do the things I like to do. It's sort of a bigger version of having more than one hobby. I love to play piano, sing, and act. I love to do all those things.
Well, my dad was the district attorney of New Orleans for about 30 years.
I was raised in the environment where it really wasn't about sittin' around dreaming all the time, it was about practicing and workin' really hard and if a dream ever came to you, you'd be prepared for that opportunity.
