“For the first, a little over a year of that song’s life, I actually couldn’t even play it out because Miranda Lambert had put it on hold, so, meaning that she basically was heavily considering recording that song.”
“I clearly always am just trying to always get better and always learn how can I improve in telling stories, no matter if that's production or songwriting or guitar playing or vocals or whatever, because at the end of the day I think as an artist I am a storyteller, that's what I am.”
“In the year 2020 I had probably, honestly, just the hardest year of my life.”
“I went to the FBI. I went to several social media groups. We filed police reports… It was about a year-long process.”
“Money and fame is one thing but at the end of the day I love to write songs and I love to be an artist and I love to play shows and connect with fans. That’s what I love to do.”
“I did not end up picking up a guitar or even singing a note for about a year. I just felt so defeated. I had no idea what I was going to do.”
“You get to a point where you don’t really care what the industry thinks. You don’t really have anything to lose because you’ve already lost it.”
“Because songwriting, though, is what brought me to Nashville and that’s why I came here, was, to write songs for other people, that, for one, is a huge reason why songwriting is so important to me.”
“If we don’t have a good song, then we have nothing. I can’t make fans if I don’t have good songs.”
“I was not the normal kid. When kids my age were listening to Britney Spears and Beyoncé and all that – massive respect for those artists, incredible artists – but I can basically tell you anything you want to know about Loretta Lynn because that is what I grew up with.”
