I've built a solid career there, but America's ten times the size. Now that we're onto the third record, I feel like the stars have aligned and American audiences are embracing my music even more.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've always wanted to release records in America. That's where I believe the music belongs, and the style and the eclectic musical mix that we put together kind of belongs here.
The music scene is more competitive in the States.
We're a staple in the American music culture. Like us or not, we're here to stay.
I firmly believe that we have more latent musical talent in America than there is in any other country. But to dig it out there must be good music throughout the land, a lot of it. Everyone must hear it, and such a process takes time.
It's like there's the rest of the world, and then there's America. Part of the reason I would really love continue to making music over here because so much of American music has inspired me, whether it's Jeff Buckley, Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen.
I really enjoy playing America. I like the audiences there. It's the home of a lot of music I grew up with.
The music industry over there seems to treat America like it's one territory even though they got offices in different parts of America - they're still quite sort of 'America is the territory.'
I get a wave of pride in America when I look back at what we've accomplished in the field of music.
We are living in a time when American popular music is finally being recognized as one of our most successful exports. The demand is huge.
Country music belongs to America.
