I really enjoy being in a small town. I think if I grew up in New York City and tried to shape my own music path, it would be so much more difficult.

So coming out of a smaller, hometown area, where there's not a lot going on, especially in the creative sense, it allows you to be a little more free. I really enjoyed that.
