strong dad writing
Texas people are really strong in their roots. I started writing and playing guitar at 17. I've always loved music, and my dad is a singer-songwriter.
song falling-in-love writing
Falling in love is awesome, but I'm never drawn to happy songs per se, so whenever you sit down to write a heartbreak song and you're happily in love, it's like, 'OK, now I have to go back to a sad place to get something good.
country writing rocks
There's room for everyone. There's room for pop country, for 'rock & roll' country, for stone-cold country, and everything in-between. Great music is great music.
writing bits personal-experiences
I do write a lot from personal experience, but I also embellish a bit.
song writing difficult
We write so many songs, it is difficult to narrow them down.
song writing easier
I definitely still have ... angst but I also wrote some songs that say it's okay to love, now. I'm happy in my life, and it's a bit easier to write happy songs when you are actually happy.
song writing emotional
I think the more emotional you are, the better. I'm sort of writing [songs] as I go and I can never tell how it's going to be or how it's going to feel until I get into the studio. But I definitely think it will. I probably can't help but have the emotions in my voice.
kids life
In a way, I had such a normal life. But in another way, I saw things most kids don't see.
cool felt proud third video wrote
I'm real proud of this video. It's the third video I've made, and I think I felt really comfortable with this one. When I wrote the song, I thought it would be a cool video.
amazing coming female gonna keeping kicked leg open
I kicked the door open, and I'm gonna hold my leg in there. I'm keeping the door open for all these amazing female singer-songwriters that are coming out.
wide
I'm wide open and raw emotionally to the crowd.
deliver good great time
It's important I deliver a great show and a good time.
assumed dad dated
I've dated all kinds of guys and didn't know who I'd end up with. But I kind of assumed it would be someone more like my dad than not.
I've been on big tours ever since I started, but you can't just go out there and headline, you have to do it right.
