I like girls who are laid back and fun to be around. ”

A mall was something that I just used to hang out in as a kid. And then you go there, and there's 4,000 people waiting for you to perform. It's a big difference. ”

I was just a regular kid. ”

My accent fades away I guess when I sing. It's real weird. I guess singing is pretty much a universal language like you sing however everyone else sings and that's with an American accent. I sound very different when I talk. ”

I used to listen to Keith Urban and Johnny Cash and stuff. ”

With the Internet, fans feel like they know you and I love that kind of connection. ”

Having pop sensibilities from my past and also being a lead blues and sort of rock guitarist allowed me to bring that kind of beachy rock groove. ”

I really like 'Wish U Were Here.' It's about being on tour, but really missing someone and wishing she was there with me. I shot the music video at different places all around the country, where I've been on tour. ”
