I'm a folk artist at heart.

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'm a traditional singer-songwriter. I have a more organic sound.

Actually, if I could deliberately sit down and write a pop hit, all my songs would be pop hits! Let's put it this way. I play what I like to hear. And sometimes I like to hear something poppy, and sometimes I don't.

I've always considered myself a folk singer, even though we strapped on Rickenbacker guitars and played pretty loud.

I don't know about folk music. I play guitar, so there's a feeling I make folk music.

If anything, I want to be seen as a singer-songwriter rather than a pop artist.

If someone asked what kind of music I play, I wouldn't say I'm a folk singer; however, if folk music means music for the people, and playing music to entertain them and share different messages, then sure, I'd like to think that I'm part folk singer.

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