Quotes by Zac Brown
Maybe some people that only listen to electronic music will pick up my record and get turned on to some of the story songs, some of the more country-type stuff.
I'm no different than any other human being. I play music for a living, and we're very blessed.
We just couldn't seem to get the love from the Nashville awards shows... So Grammys really gave us validation, and so that's why they're such a big deal for us.
Some people are gonna hate anything; they're gonna hate when anybody tries to go or do anything, and that's usually the people who don't ever create anything themselves.
I hope everybody enjoys our input on 'Black Water' - it sure was a lot of fun getting to record it.
When songs make me wanna throw up, it makes me ashamed to even be in the same genre as those songs.
I was a music fan first way before I started creating it, so I still get giddy when I get to be around people that I respect so much.
I never get used to going out and seeing 20, 30,000 people that are there to see us play. It's kind of surreal.
