Apparently, there’s this whole set of disgruntled people but obviously it’s not my intention to offend anyone by changing the style of music that I’ve done.

My dad was good friends with the Bad Medicine Blues Band – one of the only blues bands in Fargo, as you can imagine! He took me out to see them play when I was 12 years old and I was really inspired by their guitar player, Ted Larsen.

I’m not a fast, stream-of-consciousness lyricist at all – I know some guys who are, and if there is one skill I wish I had, it’s that.

I think the people at my record label know I’m a Christian and again, I’ve been really blessed that I’ve never had to get into a head-butt war over moral standards or anything like that.

During a big rock show, you can flub a few things and nobody will hear it, because it gets buried under everything else.

Yeah, touring can get rough some times and draining, but I always have to pinch myself and realize that I’m doing what I love.

When I began my career, I was constantly referred to as the kid who could play the blues.
