Kelsie Watts- Balancing Broadway and Billboard Dreams

From the bright lights of Broadway to the gritty glow of a Nashville studio, Kelsie Watts is doing more than just "fitting in"—she's breaking out. In this episode, Erik Zachary sits down with the powerhouse vocalist and SIX: The Musical star to talk about her anthemic new single “Fit In,” her unexpected journey to Broadway, and what it really takes to balance 8 shows a week and a music career. Kelsie opens up about everything from her viral TikToks to the painful inspiration behind her deeply personal song “I Can’t Say Goodbye,” written after the loss of her brother. She shares how she’s bringing purpose to her pain, breaking the stigma around mental health, and proving that vulnerability is a superpower—whether on stage, on socials, or behind a piano.
