Today’s guest is deserving of all their flowers– maybe that’s why they were left holding all the roses. We chat with Charlie Starr of Atlanta-based country-rockers Blackberry Smoke on Season 02, Episode 35 of “Load-In Through the Back!”
Since forming in 2000, Blackberry Smoke have earned a reputation as one of the hardest working acts in the country with their relentless touring schedule and self-made hits. Their fourth album, “Holding All The Roses” is the first independently released album to hit Number 1 on the Billboard Country Album chart.
Charlie joins us to discuss life on the road, his custom series Les Paul guitar, jamming with Metallica, the importance of collaboration, genuineness, and much more.
Blackberry Smoke is on tour all summer alongside Mike Campbell and the Dirty Knobs. For dates and more information visit blackberrysmoke.com and follow @BlackberrySmoke on social media.
