Over the years I've had more and more of an association with Nashville.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
One of the magical things about Nashville is just how many incredibly talented people are here and the way they support each other.
I have a special place in my heart for Nashville because it saved my life back in the day.
Nashville feels like a big little town to me. It's got lots of culture and lots of interesting things to do and lots of interesting people. At the same time, it feels very small and tight-knit and very close. Everyone feels like they know each other.
Nashville is wicked. It's like a proper music community, but it's also quintessentially American. You bump into people there with cowboy hats that spit in jars and call you 'boy.' I just love that.
Nashville is my home, and the reason why I get to do what I love.
I think it took me a while to convince Nashville that what I do is genuine and my heart's in the right place, and I love country music.
One of the reasons I wanted to do a show about Nashville in Nashville was because when I lived here, the hardest thing to go out and hear was country music. Country was taking place inside the studio and it was an export.
Ooooh, I love Nashville! It seems like everywhere you walk, there's great music coming out of every wall.
A lot of my music is very roots-oriented, and that's country and soul. I've been in every roadhouse in the South, soaking in all of that... Nashville is like a second home to me, and I'm just gravitating toward the songs.
I've always been a big fan of Nashville, and I have friends that live there.
