It’s good to be proud of your heritage and your culture, but pride can be perverted. Sam Hunt Read Quote
There’s not a day goes by that I don’t appreciate the freedom that I have to make music and tour and spend time with my family. Sam Hunt Read Quote
I like disagreement because it forces both sides to question their own opinions and why they feel that way. Sam Hunt Read Quote
I like doing stuff like, for instance, in the ‘Leave the Night On’ video, I had on a plain white T-shirt. I just wanted to do something to it to make it a little different, so I just cut a big strip out of the side, from the shirttail up to my armpit, and cut a big red strip out of another T-shirt and just sewed it in there.

Obviously, I love country music, so I wanna be able to live in the country music genre and then play to country music fans. Sam Hunt Read Quote
I wrote a song several years ago while I was in college called ‘Muscadine Wine.’ I really didn’t know if it had potential or not, if it was good or bad or what. I played it for my roommates – who I played ball with – one night, and I knew they would tell me the truth. They loved it, and that encouraged me. Sam Hunt Read Quote
I do think I’m country, but your definition of that word might be different from my definition. In my opinion, country music, the sound of country, has always evolved. But the one thing that has not changed is the story element. And I think country songs are truthful songs about life written by country people. Sam Hunt Read Quote
I was a product of the relationships with my family, the environment I grew up in; all those things I kind of put on the back burner when I got into music, and my life all changed dramatically. Sam Hunt Read Quote
