I love making music that stands the test of time. That's always kind of been my goal since we put Cowboys and Angels out, is making songs that stick around. They're not just that flash in the pan. We've gotten lucky a handful of times at this point. I've had some songs that I think have stood the test of time and will continue to do so. So that's my main focus.

I don't want to let anything really steer me away from what I'm here to do, and that's make awesome country music.

I was brand new to the scene and a couple songs out at the time and really never met Luke, but we were going on tour with him later that year. So I was excited to be down there with him and hopefully impress him. Kind of just try to do my thing and have fun and it seemed like it went well. So we got invited back the second year and then we really kind of started making it our own thing.

dirt bikes and whatever else was fun at the time. When he said that, I was like, all right, I'll pick the guitar back up. I started learning and at the age of 15, was playing my first gig with some of those guys. It was like the butterflies and then overcoming those and seeing people sing along and dance. Our first show was for a senior picnic.
