I don't worry so much about whether people are buying my music or getting it for free.
Athens, much like Austin, is a difficult music scene. There are so many musicians there that it is hard to get gigs and hard for people to take you seriously.
There are a lot of people who talk about a formula for being able to start a fan base. But for me, it's been about songs and just being hard on myself as a writer, feeling like there is a purpose to it all.
I believe that people want to hear good songs and they want to be moved.
I think people just want to hear good songs and I just want to keep getting better as a writer so that I can deliver good songs.
When I think about my career and how it all started, it really started with me getting to a point where I understood how to write songs that resonated with people.
I write very personal songs. Subject matter is usually derived from some internal struggle that I am having.
In many ways my writing is like therapy. It is my way of dealing with things.
When I deal with my struggles in my songs, I feel like most people are going to identify with my struggles because they are essentially dealing with the same things.
It will be double, maybe even triple that this week.
