The older I get, the more special time with family gets.
I've been able to experience so many things since I've had my record deal.
It matters if people believe you or not.
I wanted to get better at writing, so I knew I needed to move to Nashville.
I wrote 'Flatliner' with Dierks Bentley in mind in 2013.
Just being from where I'm from, a little small town, I feel like I'm a good judge of character.
I try to live every day and realize that there are so many folks working hard to try to get to where I am and how fortunate that I am.
I've always wanted to treat people the way I want to be treated.
'You Should Be Here' set the tone that, 'Alright everybody, I want you to listen to this album.
Even though I lost my dad in just a tragic, sudden way, there are so many more stories that are so much worse.
Life ain't about just 'Chillin' It.' I've learned that.
If one person feels the way I felt when I first fell in love with country music, then I'm doing my job.
I went to a small high school in - down in south Georgia. Terrell Academy is the name of it.
I've had the chance to meet families with children who are sick, and it's heartbreaking.
On my tour, either they're coming to see me, or they're not.
The power of music is real.
Sometimes, you want to write how you feel, but making people have fun, that's part of it, too.
I'm not very patient.
Country's more than about what the music sounds like. It's what you're saying and who you are as a person.
I'm getting to do, like, 11 stadium shows with Kenny Chesney... Seriously - that's bucket list.
I've stopped questioning things and how things work.
That's where it all started for me, in clubs and bars, and I don't ever wanna outgrow that.
I always say, 'If it looks good on a T-shirt, it would probably be a pretty cool title or cool song.'
I wanna have the coolest merch.
If an artist can take two minutes to tweet a fan and make his or her day, why wouldn't they take advantage of that?
If I start putting too much pressure on myself, that's something my mama is there to help with.
That's why I've always loved country music. Whether it's sad, pumps you up, or it's breakup songs, it's all real-life things.
No matter how the day's going, when I get out there on that stage, it makes it all all right.
