Welcome back to The Road Show with Tony Justice and Friends! Today I’m sitting down with my good buddy and country artist Elvie Shane—Kentucky-born storyteller, raised by a church-going mama and a truck-driving dad. From gospel roots and gravel-lot wrenching to Nashville stages and lakeside life back home, Elvie’s journey is pure working-class America. We dig into his new record Damascus, the move out of Nashville, growing up “with an angel on one shoulder and the devil on the other,” and why the road is both friend and foe.
Topics Discussed in the Episode:
Why Elvie left Nashville and found peace back home in Kentucky
Growing up between church pews and truck cabs—and how it shaped his music
Stories from the road: pond jumps, barracudas, and the lessons learned
Embracing the “backslider” identity and writing honest, faith-filled songs
Creating the new record in the mountains with close friends
