In episode 218 of The Raised Rowdy Podcast, hosts Nicky T and Kurt Ozan sit down with country-rock artist Kelsey Hickman for a wide-ranging and honest conversation about carving out a unique lane in today’s music industry. Kelsey reflects on her recent tour with Hinder and Saliva, sharing stories about the passionate energy of rock crowds, the camaraderie at festivals, and how her music blends the edge of rock with the soul of country. The trio explores the evolving music landscape, from performing on Broadway to building community through social media platforms like TikTok. Kelsey opens up about her musical influences—Shania Twain and Lzzy Hale—her personal journey through loss and growth, and the reality of navigating fame, fan expectations, and the noise of modern music. With behind-the-scenes stories from The Red Door to the stage, this episode celebrates authenticity, resilience, and the joy of connecting with fans in an increasingly blurred genre world!
