I went to Louisiana Tech, which is just down the road from where we lived. It was an easy college to get into.
For me, there's a lot of intrinsic mystery and power in folk music, but a lot of people don't perceive that music from around the world as something that fits into their lives or their psyche in any way. So I tried to present it in a different way to give it more of a chance to sink into people's heads.
I guess my path feels sort of different now... I don't know what's going to happen, but I certainly want to make music a bigger part of my life in the future than it has been for the last couple of years.
My songs pretty much revolve in my brain most of the time - usually, whatevers coming next.
I bring a record home, and it connects with me like nothing else. In my ideal situation, somebody will do that with my record.
