All I have in this world is a place that’s mine, a few good friends and a few good lines, a couple pairs of shoes that I love that shine and I walk in peace.
I’d rather be more of the hippie country chick – as in, instead of pointing a finger, just maybe saying, ‘We’re all screw-ups. We’re all in this kind of together. We’re all just figuring this out.’
I think a great song appeals to older and younger people and it makes you think. It’s also honest, and it also doesn’t hurt if it’s fun to sing along to.
The more country that my music gets, the less it fits into the country world today. It’s almost like there needs to be two genres, modern country and country?
If I’m not writing about myself, then I sit down with people I really dig writing with and throw ’em out and see if something sticks. Their brain plus mine hopefully will make something interesting and cool and it will just snowball and we’ll have a unique song by the end of it.
