"Tonight I'll get up on the stage and all my problems seem to go away/Tonight I'll get up in those lights and I will sing my best for you tonight," proclaims Plain White T's frontman Tom Higgenson on "Sing My Best," from the album All That We Needed.
It's not uncommon for musicians to experience a cathartic release onstage. But for singer Higgenson, the rush of performance is particularly acute.
It's incredible to be able to take that love and obsession and do something awesome with it - to be able to write songs that people like, want to hear, sing along to and relate to.
