I discovered that it was a lonely world being a solo artist. Then I started working with another solo artist, Rod Stewart, and he used to tell me how lonely he was!

Andy Taylor

My solo albums have given me confidence in myself and a broader understanding of what I had to offer.

Philip Bailey

I can be a little messy and wild and carefree with my creativity as a solo artist. In a group, there's a certain structure, and everyone has a part to play, and being a solo artist, I can do as I please.

Dawn Richard

DID' has given me all the confidence that a new artist needs.

Shakti Mohan

I always saw myself as a singer-songwriter, a solo-artist, that's why working with other artists was never satisfying for me.

John Legend

Everything that Eddie has said about me is the total opposite of what really happened. Eddie says I wanted to be a solo artist. No, Eddie wanted to be a solo artist.

Sammy Hagar

The biggest challenge was the whole learning curve of being solo artist. I've been in bands for so long that being a solo artist was completely new thing.

Nita Strauss

I hate the solo artist aspect of rock-'n'-roll. I don't have enough personality or charisma to be a solo star.

Dave Grohl

I was able to endure and play a special part in music history. And I always managed to keep working, even if I wasn't a big solo artist.

Merry Clayton

Back in 1985, I was working on my third solo album when the band came to me and asked me to produce the next Fleetwood Mac project. At that point, I put aside my solo work - which was half finished - and committed myself for the next seventeen months to producing 'Tango in the Night.'

Lindsey Buckingham

I was able to endure and play a special part in music history. And I always managed to keep working, even if I wasnt a big solo artist.

Merry Clayton

I'm not a really good classical guitarist by any means, but what I learned from this is a way of working very slowly on solo pieces and I enjoyed working on these pieces of John's. They were not written for solo guitar but a lot of them were easy to adapt.

Marc Ribot

But in my mind I've always been a solo artist- I've just been working with a lot of great people like Kanye and Alicia Keys and Jay-Z.

John Legend

The greatest compliment I ever got was when people called me an artist, and I understand that solo aspect of being an artist, when you're in there by yourself, trying to do something great, and people who don't even know you can come up and just dump on you.
