"The balance between technique and soul is an important component of the blues. You have to have technique to execute the performance and you have to have soul for the music to be felt. So, in a strange way you only want to get so proficient on your instrument. Too much technique will take away from the music. Soul comes from experience and the more you have the more soulful your sound will be."…

“I miss when people listened. When music and art were the soul of entertainment. Now, Netflix and cell phones sit on that throne. I miss when a blues song was a song and not just a guitar hero experiment.”

"I think there is an audience for Soul and Blues music today because people are starved for music that's real and music that is played by real musicians. Most music today has the same cookie cutter formula with the same beats and a lot of that stuff sounds the same."

"I think people just worked harder in general back in the 60s and as a result, were able to create some great stuff, including music. As time went on, everything has gotten easier. You no longer have to devote years to your craft if you don’t want to. It’s easier than ever to create, record and release music and as a result, there’s a lot more poor quality music out there."

"I believe that we are getting back to simplicity of music, that’s what I miss most. Pop Music today is homogenized crap force fed to us by big radio stations backed by big corporate money. Music of the past was at least real and not processed garbage from talentless puppets. My hopes are that musicians get fair pay for their streaming royalties and big companies stop making more money than the artists."…

"When I first saw Marcel Marceau perform and then met him personally, I was deeply touched by his humanity. His “art of silence” speaks across all languages, all ethnicities, more eloquently than words. He has profound understanding of human nature and the human condition, surprising and delighting us while implanting powerful insight into who we are and how we relate to each other and the world around us. He’s a storyteller in the most fundamental way that…

"I feel blues these days is really too broad. Most of what people refer to as the blues is nothing more than rock and roll. Contemporary blues for the most part has become too predictable. The important thing about the blues is to make it your own. This is very, very challenging."
