I have so many opinions about everything it just comes out during my music. It's a battle for me. I try not to be preachy. That's a real danger.
The thing about my music is, there really is no point.
I just do what I do. I like to make music
Back then people closed their eyes and listened to music. Today there's a lot of images that go with the music. A lot of music is crap and it's all commercial and the images are all trying to sell the record.
My music isn't anything but me. It has jazz in it, and rock'n'roll, and it has an urgency to it.
My songs speak for themselves. The musicians who play on them and the way they sound and where they were recorded and the way they were recorded is the old Nashville way ... they sound as country or more country than a lot of things that are on country radio.
I have no idea who's steering, and I don't really care .. I just keep going whatever the inclination is ... there are threads that are continuous and hold everything together and a major thread is country music.
Music lovers always want to hear the best. It's about freedom of choice, we supply the music.
I don't like to be labeled, to be anything. I've made the mistake before myself of labeling my music, but it's counter-productive.
It's gotta be fun, if it's not fun it's not worth doing. Music is about having a good time feeling your soul, whether it makes you laugh or it makes you cry, just so long as you feel as much as you can. That's the mission of Pono.
The music world has taken a huge dump, so maybe there's a connection. So if Apple decided to do this, maybe they do their own version ... whatever they want to do it's a home run for music. Unless they screw it up, and try to put something on it so that they can own it - I'm calling it out, proprietary formats are not a good thing.
