I'm sort of a traditionalist usually. I love old soul music and The Beatles I realized I was sort of trying to make music sometimes that fit into an era that's gone.

I used to play trumpet when I was a kid, and then I got braces, and I couldn't really play it anymore, so sometimes I wish I could still play that I think it's a great instrument, so maybe one of these days I'll pick it back up.

I love sports. If I could be a baseball player I would. I just am not good at it at all.

I was raised really strongly on The Beatles they were huge in my family, my parents loved them, and they used to quiz me on who was singing which song, and we'd play certain records for certain events, and things like that. So I mean, they were sort of my introduction to pop music.

I think my music tastes keep changing, so I think the music I make changes a little bit.

To me, there are 3 parts of the album process: writing, recording, and my favorite part: getting to sing the songs with the fans every night.
