I think people who go out and tell you how much they're gonna change things are the people who end up being just another whatever. I'm never trying to change anything. That's not for me. ”

I've played golf since I was fourteen. I like how no two rounds are ever the same. And I get to be out in nature... and hang out with my buddies. ”

Music education was always big for me. Ever since I was a young kid, I always said it was the reason I went to school sometimes and knowing if I didn't do well in class that my mom wasn't gonna let me sing in school or sing at that concert. ”

Every time I have a song that does well, that's a great feeling to have. ”

I'm not a studio rat. I do find sitting around playing the same song 12 times kind of tedious. I like to get in and get out. ”
