“One day when I was like 9, I heard the Beatles on the radio, and I asked my dad who they were. He told me they were the best band in the world, and I became obsessed.

“When I was 18 years old, I went on the road with my dad after I graduated from high school. And we were riding on the tour bus one day, kind of rolling through the South, and he mentioned a song. We started talking about songs, and he mentioned one, and I said I don't know that one. And he mentioned another. I said I don't know that one either, Dad, and he became very alarmed that I didn't know what he considered my own musical genealogy.” KnowsYearsKindSaidSchoolSongMy OwnTalkingDadOne DayHigh SchoolSouthMusicalMy DadBusRidingRollingGenealogy Author:Rosanne Cash

“My interest, perhaps, came out of the trauma of being a young immigrant in this country and constantly feeling my "resident alien" status. I remember trying to learn English on kindergarten playgrounds. I tried hard to be a convincing American but it was a losing battle. I was labeled weird and that tag never left me - all through high school, I was always the oddball. It was not always an easy path - I just had to tell myself that one day, being on the periphery would become an asset (and I think it finally has, as a creative adult).” ThinkingTryingCountryHardFeelingsSchoolRememberYoungLeftEasyInterestCreativePathBattleOne DayLosingHigh SchoolAdultsTraumaAliensImmigrantsAssetsConvincingTagPlaygroundsResidentsKindergartenPeripheryOddballs Author:Porochista Khakpour

“When my friends who were college age took a year off of school, they'd play in Weatherbox, or between high school and college. People always joined on a short-term basis and I did things one day at a time, I guess. There was never a big plan when someone was joining. They were never joining on a full-time membership basis.
