More quotes by Amos Lee
I don't really know what 'folk music' means anymore.
Amos Lee
You need a strong sense of 'otherness' to be able to create in your life.

Amos Lee
I'm always flattered and honored when people cover my music or sing my songs, no matter where it is.

My favorite time in music is probably 1970-75. Still Bill by Bill Withers, Harvest by Neil Young, John Prine's first album, James Taylor's One Man Dog-I hope I can bring the same sort of spirit I hear on those records.
Amos Lee
Songwriting isn't always something that's directly proportionate to the experience.

We all need a place that we can go, And feel over the rainbow
Amos Lee
I'm not afraid to be bluntly honest in my songs, even if it means I'm discovering things about myself that I'd rather not.
Amos Lee
Country artists have advantages all over the place. The radio support is incredible. The fanbase is rabid, all over.
Amos Lee
I'm in love with a girl who's in love with the world.
Amos Lee
I don't know anything about music theory at all. Zero. But I don't really need to.
Amos Lee
I grew up working at a record store and listening to vinyl. Even if it's side A and B, there's always this continuity that really turned me on about music.
Amos Lee
As an experience, as a listener, for me, I miss the record store. I miss going in and knowing the guy at the counter and being like, Hey, knowing that he was going to hate the record I put on the counter, and still buying it. That takes some guts.
