“I've always written songs to use music as a form of therapy or as a way to look at my obstacles or my memories from a different perspective. It's always helped me realize the grass isn't always greener and how I need to live more in the moment. My songwriting is a documentation of whatever's happening in my life at that point in time.” WayNeedsLooksDifferentMomentsUseFormSongRealizingMemoriesWrittenPerspectiveHappeningsObstaclesGrassTherapySongwritingDifferent PerspectiveGreenerDocumentation Author:Chuck Ragan
“I can write a song and a thousand people could hear it and there will be countless different reasons why those people get something out of that song. But they're all there for the same reason, which is to enjoy music and to let it help dissolve those problems or those rough days or to give a reason to keep putting the boots on. So to see ideas come to fruition and for someone to get something out of it is a beautiful thing.” PeopleGivingWritingI CanIdeasDifferentReasonHelpingProblemBeautifulSongEnjoyThousandReason WhyRoughBootsBeautiful ThingsFruitionRough Day Author:Chuck Ragan
“It's always a blast playing the new stuff. But I feel like songs, in a way, are never finished. You get to a point where you're comfortable enough to put a stamp on it and send it out there, but even after recording it, when you're playing it live, you hear different harmonies, you hear different notes, you hear different tempos or peaks and valleys in the song.” WayFeelsDifferentEnoughSongStuffComfortableHarmonyNotesFinishedValleysStampsBlastTempoNew StuffPeaks And Valleys Author:Chuck Ragan
“The song writing is different because with this stuff, I write it on my own and with Hot Water, we're more of a collective and I love both sides of that. Honestly, it's two different animals but I love and respect them both and feel really honored to be blessed with people who care about it and come out and support both sides of it.” PeopleFeelsWritingTwoDifferentCareSongStuffSidesWaterMy OwnAnimalSupportHotBlessedHonestlyCollectivesBoth SidesHonoredWho CaresLove And RespectBeing BlessedHot WaterDifferent Animals Author:Chuck Ragan
