Landon Parker is a Country Music artist, songwriter and former member of the Country Music group "Chasin Crazy". Landon joins Country Music Made Me to discuss the life changing moment when his Dad bought him a guitar when he was 16, what the early days were like while building a following in his home state of North Carolina, and some of the fun stories from his teens, like earning the chance to tryout for America's Got Talent after winning a local talent contest, opening for Florida Georgia Line and hearing them sing Cruise during sound-check before it had been released, and visiting Nashville to record his first album "Country Side". Landon and Brendan talk about the moment he was contacted by Scott Siman, who happens to be Tim McGraw's manager, to join a new Country Music group, what it was like moving to Nashville and joining the band, and why he decided to leave after five years to pursue a solo career. Landon explains how producer Blake Chancey convinced him to stay in Nashville rather than move home to North Carolina, what it was like to see the world shut-down one day before he was set to head into the studio to record his debut music, and what the future holds following the release of his debut single "Good Beer Drinkin" earlier this year.
