fun hard-work play-hard
I grew up in a fun-loving environment - you work hard and play hard.
dad band enough
All my band members were old enough to be my dad. It was like this family vibe.
nashville shapes form
All I knew when I moved to Nashville was that I wanted to make music in whatever shape and form I could.
writing needs records
I write for myself. I don't write because I have a record coming out. I write because I want to. I need to.
long-distance-relationship views care
Unfortunately, I'm more experienced than I care to admit on long-distance relationships. Just because that is my life. I travel because I love to. As a result, I have to sort of make it work when a relationship kind of comes into view.
years two comfort
The stage is my comfort zone, and playing live is what I've always wanted to do. It's why I want to do two hundred dates a year. I wouldn't feel that way if I were nervous onstage.
stories nervous stage
Anyone who tells you they're not nervous playing on the CMAs stage, I'm afraid they're not telling you the whole story.
song writing want
Any time I write a new song, I am jazzed about it for like 24 hours and then I am over it and want to write another one.

I am a huge, huge Ronnie Milsap fan. I have been for a long time.
second-chance first-impression firsts
Encore' was an experiment. 'Encore' was the second chance at a first impression. 'Encore' was not completely planned.

There is a bit of a movement as far as younger people in country music. That is cool because people are saying things like, 'I didn't listen to country music until so-and-so came along.' And I'm like, 'Yeah! Now you know why I love it.
editing price-tag looks
Every time I take a photo, it goes into SnapSeed. Even if it's just a price tag on something, it still goes into SnapSeed, and I start editing it. I'm not a photographer, so I need all the help I can get when it comes to make a picture look cool.
albums changing-your-life
A good album can make your day. A great album can change your life.
stories albums chapters
Albums are chapters. They're part of a story.
