Greylan and Brendan talk about his journey from local musician in his hometown of Knoxville, Tennessee to a songwriter in Nashville working with legendary writer Bob Dipiero, his struggle to find his place as a songwriter in Music City, and how things changed once everything began to click within his writing. Greylan explains how his life changed after Kenny Chesney recorded his song "Happy Does", the confidence he found within his songwriting to chase an artist career, and what it's like to finally release his debut EP "I Hope She Hears These".
