I like her music. I think it's good. And well, I think she's pretty ... even though she's older than my mom and dad. And gosh, my dad is like 30.

For me there is something primitively soothing about this music, and it went straight to my nervous system, making me feel ten feet tall.

For me, it's about the music. I'm just the messenger, and I hope to do it as long as I live.

Nathan is probably the closest friend I have in the music world. He's the most supportive and caring musician I've met.

When all the original blues guys are gone, you start to realize that someone has to tend to the tradition. I recognize that I have some responsibility to keep the music alive, and it's a pretty honorable position to be in.

Music became a healer for me.
