Well, I do lie for a living. I'm an actor.

Being honest is my job. That's what music is for me.

True country music is honesty, sincerity, and real life to the hilt.

Music is a hobby, because I'm not making any money out of it, but I put just as much conviction into that as I do into my acting.

I've always wanted to be accepted by country music fans - without lying.

The music industry is a world of smoke and mirrors: they tell you exactly what they think you want to hear. And they are bare-faced lying. I tend to stay away from that.

Acting kind of pays my bills more than music does.

To me, country music tells a story about, and deals with, the way people live their lives and what they do.

I'm a country singer. I love all kinds of music, but country is where my loyalty lies. That's just me and what I do, and I'm not going to change it.

Nothing that I say in my music is a lie.
