“If one person feels the way I felt when I first fell in love with country music, then I'm doing my job.”
“I've always been a huge Eric Church fan. I'll never forget being in college listening to his first album and how much it inspired to write my own music.”
“I've stopped questioning things and how things work.”
“I want to do this for a long time; I want people to be saying, 'What is he doing still playing in clubs?'”
“I want to be somebody, a person, first that people remember, but also, I want music that I release to still be around. I don't want it to just be cool for a second and be gone.”
“I started performing in college, but I wasn't writing a lot.”
“When you find what you love, and you find people that will support you, you're living the dream whatever you do.”
“Before I ever had my record deal, I just had a publishing deal over at Sony ATV. I had that title, 'Flatliner,' and just the idea of a girl stopping everybody's heart - just kind of a fun idea.”
“I always loved country music. But I didn't even know I could sing. I just knew I loved the music.”
“Georgia Southern was such a big part of me getting my start.”
“My first album, I had to write everything. Nobody was going to send me stuff just because I had a little success.”
“I've had the chance to meet families with children who are sick, and it's heartbreaking.”
“I like my buddies to come out to shows on weekends, but they hardly ever get to any.”
“I wrote 'Flatliner' with Dierks Bentley in mind in 2013.”
“I get plenty of credit out on the road.”
“As an artist, as a person, I don't want to be here for just a little while.”
“When I left college, it broke my mom's heart, but I knew I had to be in Nashville. I knew that was the place you had to be in to become a better songwriter, and that's what I wanted to move there for and to ultimately get a record deal.”
“I know that a lot of our troops like country music. I would love to do anything I could to just help them out.”
“Country's more than about what the music sounds like. It's what you're saying and who you are as a person.”
“That's why I've always loved country music. Whether it's sad, pumps you up, or it's breakup songs, it's all real-life things.”
