"I think and I Hope You Dance, just all the lyrics in that song, but when you get the choice to sit it out or dance, I hope you dance. I really love that lyric, because it's like you should just take chances no matter what, really."

- Hi, I'm Queeva you're watching NPT, Nashville Public Television, your home for Nashville stories. My favorite place to listen to music in Nashville is definitely The Wild Horse, because I feel like so many great upcoming artists play there and it's cool just to listen to their music, and the sound in there is great. And it's an awesome atmosphere. I think my first gig in Nashville was the Belcourt Taps. So I just played an acoustic songwriter's round there and it was a lot of fun. If I could collaborate with any artist, it would definitely be Thomas Rhett, because I feel like he just has such a cool voice, and he also did a duet with Maren Morris and it sounded awesome. I think and I Hope You Dance, just all the lyrics in that song, but when you get the choice to sit it out or dance, I hope you dance. I really love that lyric, because it's like you should just take chances no matter what, really. The first instrument that I played was a piano, but then I wasn't very good at the piano, so then I started to learn how to play guitar.
