Creativity Quote by Boz Scaggs

"I would say that I'm finding my voice in more ways than one"

About this Quote

“I would say that I’m finding my voice in more ways than one” is a slyly modest line that doubles as a mission statement. Scaggs isn’t just talking about hitting the right notes; he’s talking about the long, often unglamorous process of becoming legible to yourself and to an audience. The phrase “I would say” softens the claim, as if he’s resisting the rock-star urge to declare transformation with a cymbal crash. It’s the language of a seasoned musician who understands that growth is incremental and, frankly, a little embarrassing to narrate in real time.

The real engine is “more ways than one.” On the surface, it’s vocal: age, touring, and studio experience literally change what a singer can do. Underneath, it’s identity. Scaggs came up in an era that prized genre allegiance, yet his career has always been a kind of controlled wanderlust: blues, R&B, yacht-rock polish, rootsier returns. “Finding my voice” signals authorship and agency, a shift from being a great interpreter of styles to being the person who decides what the blend means.

Context matters because Scaggs’ generation gets frozen in nostalgia. This line pushes back against the idea that a legacy act is a museum exhibit. It frames maturity not as decline but as expanded range: voice as instrument, voice as perspective, voice as permission to keep revising the story.
