I'm a rock singer, but I love soul, I love blues, and I love theatrical stuff, too, like theatrical rock like Queen and Meat Loaf.

Rock was always part of my heart and soul. But the times just changed and everybody wanted to dance.

In high school I wanted to be a rock star and was in a lot of bands.

I wanted to be a rock star when I grew up, or at least a singer/songwriter.

I was a pop freak. I love music. Of course, I knew soul because I grew up in it. Writing it and everything. I love soul. But I love a tune that has some meat in it. Something I could hang my hat on. Because music is universal. Therefore, I felt no boundaries.

I grew up on soul music. I was a dancing little creep.

I was introduced to soul music at a very young age - my mom was a soul singer.

There was a period of time where I really hated rock music.

I always wanted to get into rock music so I could cover up my real personality, change my voice, and create a false self to hide behind.
