My father started me singing in church.

My dad's music was a great inspiration to me.

I feel that through my father's music I've found my own voice in my own playing.

When my dad died a lot of songs came, and they're still coming.

Singing songs that represent everything I am is just the best feeling in the world.

I had been singing since I was 3 years old, so my love of singing was always there.

I've always adored my father's music, but ever since I'd started singing, whether it was while I was still a student at the University of Massachusetts or professionally, I avoided Dad's material.

When you're all singing together, it brings things together. I know the songs that my grandfather and my father sang.

I've been singing since I could talk, pretty much. My dad was really musical and taught me how to sing harmonies and got me a karaoke machine with tape decks.

He learned through the way that my father and I felt about his songs, his country songs, that they were great songs. And then he went out and sang them for the audiences that we found, and he found a tremendous reaction to that.
