The single most exciting thing that happened for me was getting to spend some time in the studio with both Marty Stuart and Vince Gill. Charlie Worsham Read Quote
I was at Home Depot with my dad looking for paint when I got the call to open for Taylor Swift. That was wild, because I was crying in Home Depot, and people were looking at me funny. Charlie Worsham Read Quote
I resolved to start journaling every day, and so far I’ve been journaling every day, and it’s been great. Charlie Worsham Read Quote
When I’m at home or in the studio, I have a 1963 Martin. It’s a D-28, and I love that guitar. I write on that guitar, and it’s the first guitar that I put a pickup in and ran through an amplifier, splitting the signal to the amplifier and a DI or in the studio mic’ing it traditionally and putting an amp in the other room.

I’m flattered anytime someone has taken enough time to listen to me and make a connection to someone else, honestly. I feel very lucky that a lot of my influences are the ones that people will tweet to me that I remind them of. Charlie Worsham Read Quote
I’m in this really cool place in my career, where the stage I’m on that night, whether it’s the Paisley tour, the CMT tour, or a bar with 10 people in it, it is the most important show I’ve ever played in my life. I go to the ends of my imagination to do something that’s unforgettable every night. Charlie Worsham Read Quote
I kind of feel like I didn’t have much choice. The songs… the playing… those were the only things that ever really kept my attention. Charlie Worsham Read Quote
I had a long, long time to make ‘Rubberband,’ and I originally thought that that record would last two years. Once I got over realizing that that’s not gonna happen, and sort of got my perspective back, I realized, ‘Man I’m really fortunate. I get to write music, make music for a living.’ Charlie Worsham Read Quote
I feel like you become a songwriter when you claim that it’s sort of like a switch flipped, and you’re always writing. Even in your sleep, you’re always thinking about it in the back of your mind. The true writing – when you’re officially writing – that’s just when its front of mind, but its always there. You’re always listening for a hook. Charlie Worsham Read Quote
You know, I only claim to play three instruments. My dad is a banker, but a drummer at heart; and my mom used to teach piano lessons when she was younger. So I can play some piano, play a little drums, and fake the bass – but banjo, mandolin, and guitar are my thing. Charlie Worsham Read Quote
