I'm a worrywart, so I'm always a bit more stressed out than I should be or wish I was.

I naively thought I had to go door to door, find somebody who could record me singing some songs. I didn't know Music Row, I didn't know anything! So after six or seven months, I went back home and went to college.

I have learned from Twitter that you get that instant feedback about what people think about what you did.

Nowadays, social media is the easiest place to go to find something.

As awesome as it is to be with a big act and get three catered meals a day and get a dressing room with an actual shower in it, it's hard sometimes as a new artist to come across in 25 minutes. You get 25 minutes to hopefully impress these people. I think the longer set is more suitable for us and gives us an opportunity to connect better.

There are very few people that I deal with from a business side that it's just strictly a one-sided business relationship. I think that's important.

It's hard to believe the life that 'Someone Like You' has taken on. It's proof that people hunger for great songs - and they are open to different interpretations of songs they love.

I pay such close attention of the record making process that most people would assume are very little and wouldn't be that big of a deal the packaging, the title, and the harmonies, I think, are arguably as important as the lead vocals.

Over the course of a day, you get to get a feel for where you're playing, so when you get out on stage, you already feel like you've had a bit of a bonding experience with them.
