I came from a huge extended family of musicians.

My grandfather is a blues musician.

Not what you would call a musical family, but my father used to play saxophone, and I discovered many genres of music when I was a child.

My family was all musicians. We jam all the time.

Both my grandfathers and my mother's brother were musicians.

Willie Nelson is the perfect person, it seems to me, to think about. Because something tells me that he operates on his own frequency.

We used to really feel like the band was our family.

The average life spans of many bands are not that long, up to five years if they are lucky.

Working with Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson takes you up another level.

I grew up with the Highwaymen, which was Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings and Kris Kristofferson. Mom and Dad rode rodeo, so country music was always in the house and the car. They threw in some Dolly Parton, too.
