I think you need a concrete, real-world metaphor to talk about inner life without feeling like a jerk.
From Tift Merritt
I wanted to dedicate myself completely to the things that matter to me and let everything else go, and I think that's a really rewarding thing.
I think you have to ask questions that are scary to ask, and you cannot apologize for that, and you cannot worry what anyone else thinks about your journey.
I really love music, and I definitely love playing music and getting to be a part of music.
Music is like a really sacred, awesome thing. That first 45 minutes to two hours that you're on stage spending time with music every night is always really great.
I think that there are a lot of things that come along with being a musician, but I don't want to whine about them. I don't want to complain about my job.
My point of view as a writer has to be a lot more ego-less than just like being some performer on stage with a hairdo.
I'm always kind of surprised how much I'm associated with country music.
I think, at the end of the day, I have an outsider's heart.
You can always boil down the life of a musician to touring, playing, and writing.
