Country fans need to support country music by buying albums and concert tickets for traditional artists or the music will just fade away. And that would be really sad. ↗

One of the things that I think is such a constant in country music is that the song is so much a story. I believe it is supposed to be based around a story. ↗

Country music is just country. It's going to shift around a little bit, doing some different instrumentations, different production styles. But it will always come back to what you heard at the Opry. Nobody wants it to change. ↗

What makes my approach special is that I do different things. I do jazz, blues, country music and so forth. I do them all, like a good utility man. ↗

I went to my dad when I was 17 and said, 'I want to be a country music star.' Which every dad loves to hear. And he said, 'I want you to go to college.' So we had a discussion. And I'm pretty stubborn. I'm a lot like him. And he said, 'If you go to college and graduate, I'll pay your first six months of rent in Nashville.' So he bribed me. ↗
