"I think people are profoundly affected by music in positive ways for example music can absolutely change ones mood just simply hearing a song immediately can remind us and takes us back to when and where we were at physically and mentally when we first heard the song, that memory is with us forever that’s how I want music to affect us as a whole."

"Music and literature connect others to the human experience. In my song, "Awake to Love,” I sing about how the world is led by fear and this causes war, destruction and evil. If we focus on love, we can find peace on this earth. When people hear my music, I want them to feel - their beauty, pain or complete joy. I want them to find the strength to walk their own path and to see that their life is art."…

"Musicians of today are very strong at technique, it's incredible, but it sometimes lacks personality... Concerning the guitar skills/technique, it's just a tool for me. The most important thing is emotion. Music is a language, and what is important is what you say, more than how you say it..."

"I think the blues taps into the human psyche. The blues appeals to the very basic emotions that we all experience and, you know, rock music is directly connected to the blues but with a much more prominent rhythm component that we cannot help but move to, respond physically.
