I'm Not That Beautiful, And I Don't

Playing Guitar Was One Of My Childhood Hobbies, And I Had Played A Little At School And At Camp. My Parents Would Drag Me Out To Perform For My Family, Like All Parents Do, But It Was A Hobby - Nothing More.

I Was Offered To Take Over For Reba In 'annie Get Your Gun,' But It Wasn't Where I Wanted To Be. I Think My Fans Would Be Upset If I Confined My Shows To One City For A Long Period Of Time.

Jazz And Blues Fests Are Everywhere Now, And Americana Is Going Strong On College Radio. What I'm Hearing Is An Appreciation Of Real Music.

The Fact Is That This Conversation Is Going On At Every Level At Every Age, We're All Going, "god, What A Jerk I've Been," "how Could I Have Married That Guy?"

I Don't Want To Sound Like A Self-help Book, But It Really Has Been Transformative For Me To Take A Look At My Relationships In A New Way And See My Part In Them. Everybody's Going Through That.
