“I think that if you’re passionate about something and you’re driven and you’re focused, then you can pretty much do anything that you want to do in life.”

There’s always gonna be rock n’ roll bands, there’s always gonna be kids that love rock n’ roll records, and there will always be rock n’ roll.

There’s nothing I’d rather do than make music. It’s the love of my life.

Singing into a microphone and learning to play an instrument and learning to do your craft, that’s the most important thing for people to do.

If there’s one thing I’m good at, it’s gathering people together to do something fun.
