I will always really work hard to write as much as I can, but I also love sitting back and waiting on those big Nashville songwriters to send me some great songs, too.
Nothing ever begins. There is no first moment; no single word or place from which this or any other story springs.
I've got a song on every album, two songs as a matter of fact on every album without Auto-Tune, and that's the song that nobody talks about. It's weird.
There's nothing I miss about anything in the whole wide world. The idea of missing something means you're not living in the moment. Every moment is good for something.

Back in the early '90s, I started going to Nashville to do a lot of co-writes. One of the first people I met there was Keith Follese. Keith and his wife Adrienne are both songwriters, and we wrote some songs together.
He's written some great songs. I thought that 'Blues Man' was a perfect song for me to do as a tribute.
At the beginning of every semester, I ask my graduate students whether there is something I should read that will help me understand their work.
