I Grew Up In A Fun-loving Environment

I'm From Louisiana, And That's Where I Got My Start, In Cajun Music. There's A Huge Music Scene Down There Centered Around Our Culture. Those Are People That Are Not Making Music For A Living. They Are Making Music For The Fun Of It. And I Think That's The Best Way I Could Have Been Introduced To Music.

I Hope People Half My Age And Twice My Age Will Listen To My Music - I Want It To Live Forever And For My Audience To Feel Like They Have A Friend In My Music. Music Is A Spirit. It Heals. It's An Amazing Thing To Be Loved And Appreciated, And Sometimes, Music Has Not Just Been My Best Friend, It's Been My Only Friend.

I Love The Practicality Of A Good Car. You Know What I Mean? And When I Say 'practicality,' I Mean The Complete Practicality Of A Ferrari 458, A Wonderfully Fantastic Every Day Car.

Robert Duvall Saw Me Playing At A Restaurant In Louisiana And Invited Me To Be An Extra In His Movie 'the Apostle.' He Gave Me A Guitar For My Sixth Birthday, And I Thought That Was The Coolest Thing In The World.

My Mom Makes The Best Cajun Stuff. I'm A Big Gumbo Guy. I've Lost A Lot Of My Louisiana Accent, So Now When I Say 'gumbo,' I Feel Like Someone Who's Never Said The Word Before.
