The live thing is separate from the record for me. I have to figure out a way to make the songs work live. It's always going to be different than it is on a record, because every record I've made, there are people playing parts on there that are not going to be coming on tour with me. As much as still feeling connected to it, it's more like rediscovering.

I'm a singer. I play keyboards, acoustic and electric 6 & 12 string guitars, bass guitar, flute, mandolin, accordion, percussion, dulcimer, psaltry. When I write songs, often the material will suggest certain instrumentation, so I endeavor to play these parts on their specific instruments.

Education has been theirs in so much higher a degree; the pen has been in their hands. I will not allow books to prove anything.

It occurred to Bo that Texas songs were always about the sky because there simply wasn't anything else. No hill, no mound, not even a ripple of earth to break the dizzying sweep of the eye toward infinity. “Flat,” she decided, was a term insufficient to the terrain. It was more than that. It was actually a negative pull, an inverted gasp of ground beneath a firmament so boundless it might threaten the sanity of even those who weren't already pushing the edge.

My favorite record of all time is Fleetwood Mac's Tusk. It's made up of a bunch of songs that don't really sound the same, but they all go really well together.
