Growing up, my earliest memories are listening to Sinatra Christmas albums.

I still use a lot of good values from growing up in the Church, and there was a sense of community. But you were also being heavily judged by people that wanted to look down on you for not being as great as they are.

I haven't mowed a lawn in quite a while, but I remember hating that when I was growing up. To please Dad, you have to get it right, and that's the thing. You have to please Dad.

I was so enthralled watching 'Guys and Dolls' and learning about the Rat Pack.

Before I had a steady job, I was broke, and I didn't have any money to buy anything, so I would illegally download stuff.

I can go to festivals and open spaces, but if I'm in a crammed room with a bunch of people - oh my God.

Our fans are definitely dedicated. We see them at all the shows, just faces that we've recognized for years. They keep coming back, and it's awesome.

To see fans singing your songs back to you is an indescribable thing.

When I was a kid, I grew up watching musicals.

When I was a kid, we had acoustic guitars, a piano in the house. I made a drum kit out of buckets in my garage.

I wanted to be an actor as a kid. My teacher in second grade had called a talent agency and had them call my house. My mom was so mad.

I like to be flamboyant, play characters, wear make-up, play dress up. I was doing that since I was a kid.
