thinking artist reflection
I think it's like everything you do is just a reflection of who you are as an artist.
artist guitar long
Probably my favorite artists to listen to James Taylor, Stevie Wonder - I haven't gone back in a really long time and really listened to them - my first guitar influences. It's been awhile since I revisited that.
artist soul black
Some of my influences are black gospel artists so I definitely want to do a soul-gospel type thing.
thinking artist musical
I think I'm more influenced, just in general, not by blues artists, but more by stuff from Curtis Mayfield, Stevie Wonder. Stevie Wonder is probably my biggest musical influence of all. And Donny Hathaway.
artist listening different
I've been getting into different gospel artists; Aretha Franklin is someone I've been listening to a lot of.

I'm at a place where I just feel so grateful for what I'm doing. I couldn't ask for anything more.

I have an awesome church home and an awesome Pastor down in L.A., and I couldn't be happier.

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.

I hope that it can relate to and be a blessing to anybody, with the hope that someday they will find Jesus Christ to be the same God that I've found Him to be.
accurate acoustic playing
For the most part, we're playing acoustic instruments, ... But the show isn't completely unplugged. A more accurate description would be 'broken down.'
nice writing able
It's just satisfying for me to be able to write kind of like a finished, nice product.
feelings enjoy pursue
I really enjoy what I do and have been fortunate to pursue basically whatever I'm feeling at the time.

I moved from Minnesota out to Los Angeles and I thought I was going to hate it out there, but I really like it.

I love all kinds of different music.
