The easy answer for me would be to say music.  Music is, and always has been, an enormous part of my life.  But then I started to think a bit harder.  What about music inspires me? It's the way I can create something that's brand new.  It's the way it can unite a group of complete strangers.  But most of all, it's the way I’ve met my closest friends.

I hardly perform alone; I’m almost always singing with them.  Then I realized my friends are one of the biggest reasons music inspires me – because they are creating with me. These are not people who are becoming professional musicians or who are getting into the “business;” they are just people who love to write, sing, and perform.  They are motivated by the same pure passion that motivates me – they do it because they love to.  Music is and always will be the unbreakable thread in our lives and relationships.  Without it I would never have met such incredible people, who in their unique ways inspire me every day.
