“I got a call from my manager who told me Diplo was working on a country project. I put my vocal on the songwriting demo and my team sent the song to his team. Evidently they fell in love with it... and the rest is history.”
“I know that I come from a place of small-town roots and of humble beginnings and I try to keep those things in my songs - just stuff that I know people like me can relate to.”
“I didn't even know what 'The Voice' was, but my mom said, 'I signed you up for this singing show,' and I was like, 'All right, I guess.'”
“I'm not a huge award type person, that's not really what lights my fire.”
“I didn't want to act like I'm too cool for school or anything like that.”
“I had a bowl cut. That was pretty bad. Definitely a bowl cut. And I used to have blond, like really, really, blond hair when I was a kid. So blond bowl cut - that's what I was rocking when I was a little kid.”
“I just want to be able to do it all just because that's what life is.”
“I'm always saying normal things, and people usually understand me, but they're like, 'Where are you from?!'”
“I think it takes a little bit of time for people to take you seriously.”
“My parents are avid supporters of me, and just hearing my name and the word 'Grammy' in the same sentence would be a dream come true. I mean, that's something you put on your tombstone.”
“I believe in God. I believe that He's real and I believe He has control over a lot of things and I think throughout history there has been a lot of countries that have turned their back on Him and the result is not great.”
“If you don't believe in what you're doing, if you don't feel comfortable, or you're not meaning what you're saying, no matter if you love it or not - you can still connect with a song, but if you don't, I feel like people can easily sniff that out.”
“I always had a musical bone, I guess if you will.”
“My 91-year-old great-grandma would get out of her chair and whip me if I start acting like I'm some star or something like that.”
“I didn't grow up being a performer, really. I played baseball.”
“To get the best idea of who I am, I would probably say listen to my first single, 'The Way I Talk.'”
“I just want to make music people like.”
“I think sometime during the peak of 'Whiskey Glasses' is when I realized: 'Man, this is really starting to happen. People are not not just singing these singles, they're singing every song on my album and really invested in what I'm doing.'”
“You never know the plan. You never know what's going to happen. We are not even promised tomorrow. I just try to focus on one day at a time.”
“We don't put the Ten Commandments in school anymore. We just neglect everything and people act like the Ten Commandments is something so terrible. I mean, it's a way to live. I think we all could agree on what they say.”
