Widespread Panic discovered a couple of my songs and started doin' 'em on the gigs. They'd take a song and expand it and everybody plays a long time and people really like that. But I made my living as a songwriter so I try to get to singin' and get it over with.

I'm a recording studio guy, an engineer, a songwriter and a guitar player, in that order.

I've always enjoyed being a Gypsy.

When I sit down and play the guitar, I'm 20 years old again.

Nobody really produces my albums.

Sometimes the simplest forms of music are the hardest to play. Especially for musicians that are accomplished.
