Quote

I'm a folk artist at heart.

I always play songs that are very based in folk music.

I don't think of myself as a folk singer per se, but I really like blues and string-band music. When I started listening to records when I was a teenager, the folk boom was going on.

I became interested in folk music because I had to make it somehow.

I was reared on folk music.

Folk is bare bones music.

I absolutely love American folk art, can't get enough of it.

I've always been fascinated by the grassroots folktale level of a culture, and as a storyteller, I have to follow what seems to be leading me on.
