Lorien and Charlie here, Welcome on into Nashville Chats. It's
(01:48):
what's happening right now in country music. And Devin Dawson
has had a major change of heart, a big change
in his life. How long ago did we meet him?
Only about three or four years It was number three
years ago. He had just released an album call it
was a dark Horse, dark Horse, Yes, And he was
describing himself and the whole dark Horse imagery and about
(02:11):
how he sort of looks at life in a dark
way very seriously. Well, now Devin Dawson is a ray
of light with his new album called Pink Slip. He's
all positive, he's in love, he's married now. Things have
really changed in a great way. For funny, you should
mention all those things, because this new project really opens
(02:31):
up how life is going for him these days. If
you listen to the songs, it's a whole lot different
than that album three years ago called Dark Horses. Okay,
dark Horse, It's a big difference from a few years back,
and you'll notice in the conversation with Devin he's sounding different.
Listen one particular song that really does tell a lot
about who you are. He loved her. The music videos
(02:54):
stars your grandfather and your grandmother, you know, and I
love what you say in the song about how you know,
all of us think about what our legacy is going
to be and how we can change the world. But
I'm very curious, after seeing you and your grandfather interact,
how has he changed your world? I mean, he is
he's my rock. I think we all have at least
(03:15):
one person in our family that you know that you
really really connect with him, that you're really close with
and he's always been that for me and my brother,
you know. Um he you know, he halfway raised us too,
just because my mom and dad are working all the
time and we'd always go over to grandma and Grandpa's.
I mean he he taught me about country living, you
know what I mean, Like he he's built houses his
(03:36):
whole life and for fun. By the way, Like that
wasn't his career. He was a firefighter for like thirty years.
He was in the Navy, and um, yeah, I mean,
you know we grew up. He taught me how to
fish with a cane pole in the pond and catching
bluegill and and like you know, building stuff in the
barn and shooting guns and all that. Like he was
the one that kind of gave me that like masculine
(03:56):
kind of foundation. Um. And it's been really cool to
see bee is. He used to have a lot harder
of a heart, and he used to be a little
bit more of a hardass, And over the years he's
become such a softie. And if that isn't indicative of
me in the last couple of years, I don't know
what is. Was Grandpa Jerry reluctant to become a viral sensation. No,
(04:16):
he's all about it. He's such a good sport and
you know, he's a famous in the neighborhood now. And
every time I go home, I gotta bring him fifty
headshots that bit are signed of me so he can
hand them out. So he's I mean, he's he's loving it.
It's it's been really really really cool to do that
with him. You know, I'm just really thankful that I
got to write a song inspired by him and and
(04:38):
he got to experience it and be in the video
with me, and I got to show him that, you know,
before it was more like in memory of him that
cool or what his granddad's really cool? They got that
old truck going and everything else, and uh, the idea
that he is bragging about, Hey, he taught me how
to catch blue girl and you know, the shoot and
(04:59):
things like that. That's cool. Well, along those same lines,
Justin Moore has immortalized one of his family members in
song and it's actually it's it's it's very sweet, but
it's actually very funny. The song why We Drink Yep.
That all happened because of his mom when she asked
(05:19):
him at dinner one night son, Why do you drink
so much? Apparently the minute he sat down he started
ordering beer and shooters. That's before the salad, right. So anyway,
that kind of led us to the question recently about
what traits Justin Moore actually got from both his mom
(05:40):
and his dad. You know, my mom I got from her,
like a sense of uh, trying to think of how
to explain it, not really given a crap, like the
laid back kind of you like me, fine if you don't,
that's fine whatever, just real laid back, which is good
to have an this business, have a little bit of
(06:01):
it at least. Um. And then my dad is the
one who I got my gift of gab from, Like
he can talk to the wall, you know. And so
I remember we did when we put kind Of Don't
carry Out the album. My dad went on the press
tour with me because the label thought it might be
a fun idea for him to sit down and do
interviews with me and that stuff, because he's good at talking.
And still to this day, every time I go somewhere
(06:23):
where people interviewed us together, there they're talking about my
dad more than me, you know. So Um, but now
my dad's a really hard worker along with my mom.
And so I got got like that from him, and
then you know my sense of family I got from
both of them. Hey, Justin is just a good dude.
He's he's a well rounded guy thanks to his mom
and dad. Now Here on Crookide Chase National Chats, we're
(06:45):
featuring some of the highlights of some of the new artists,
the uh, the established artists, and some of our conversations
with him. Next up is a lady that I remember
her well first time we met her about a year ago,
because she set us up I think about a fifth
of liquor. She came. She came bearing gifts fifth of whiskey. Yes,
and that gets our attention every time here in the studio.
(07:06):
So Stephanie has now come up with a new song,
and this is one that's going to generate a lot
of conversation. We think, uh it had here in the
studio about you know what you know about the other
person in the room with you. Yeah, it's a song
called by Heart, and I love the way that she
describes how the minute she heard the lyrics, she did
(07:26):
not write this. The minute she heard this song, these
lyrics immediately impacted her and the way she feels about
her husband. Well, even you were captivated with this song,
and I think a lot of people will. There are
so many songs where I feel like the lyrics are
just running through my veins, and it seems like this
(07:49):
new song by Heart hit you exactly that way. It
really did you, guys. I was I was in New
Orleans in my little hotel room and the song came
through and I it was visceral, it was chemical, it
was like immediate. I had to get it under my
fingers on my guitar and just learned the song by
heart and by heart by heart, and I just loved
(08:14):
the imagery of this song. And you know, I've been
married now six almost six years, together with my husband
for seven, and I'm still learning him, Like there's especially
during the last you know, eleven months. Uh, I know
him a lot better. I'm that you know, we were
(08:35):
only together a couple of weeks, so this is the
first time that we've like really been together. And it's
awesome because we still really like each other, and but
I just I wanted to know all those things about him.
So then all those questions started coming at like what
was the number on his Jersey when he was seventeen,
and so it's one of those songs that, yes, it's
that new love, but also you know, it's it's that
(08:57):
forever love. Charlie Chase, you have a or ever love?
What what year? Maybe I shouldn't say what year, I
should say at what age did you meet your wife Karen?
And you've been together ever since? Right? So was it fourteen?
At age fourteen? You have been with the same wonderful
(09:17):
lady since the age of fourteen. That that's a record,
I think in country music, at least certainly in Hollywood,
I know. But here's a man who is all in
love with his wonderful wife, Faith Hill. We got a
chance to talk to Tim o'graw because he really had
a milestone year last year, lots of things going on.
(09:39):
He what did he hit like forty something, forty four
number one hits, And you know, even though we've been
in quarantine a lot of things, I think he's been
able to sneak some projects in. You know, he kind
of alluded to them, and we were talking to him recently,
and I think it isn't ye a new movie coming. Yeah,
I think there's gonna be some new projects coming out
during the course of the year that people go wow,
when be able to do that? So we'll look out
(10:02):
for that. Okay, Well, you know what amazes me. Tim
McGraw is now fifty three years old and he's accomplished
so much, but guess what, he is not even close
to being done. Is there anything else on your bucket
list at this point? I'd love to do a duet
with George Strait somewhere down the road, and one of
my dream projects would be one of my dream projects
(10:25):
and stuff like that. Oh my gosh, um. But I
want to be in a world eventually to where I
can do as much good as I can with my
music for as many causes that I can't down the road.
All Right, So there's the serious side of Tim McGraw,
But you and I both know that there's well silly side. Well,
mainly when you two get together. There's something that goes on, Charlie,
(10:45):
when you get together with Keith Urban YouTube, it's a
giggle fest between the two of you, and same with
Tim McGraw, but in a different way. You and Tim
McGraw just turn into bad boys. Have you ever worn
a Tim McGraw T shirt with your face on it
and whatever. The answer is, why you know, I don't
(11:06):
think I have. Actually, I don't think I've ever put
one of those on McGraw T shirts. No, I don't
think I have. I don't think I've ever worn a
hat and had my It just seems too weird. It
just seems too weird. Yeah, I got that. I feel
like the biggest deal in the world. If I did that, Well,
(11:27):
put that on your bucket list. There's something you haven't
done yet. Maybe you know. What I'll do is a fun,
fun one where I really young and where everybody just
leaves a contrast. I dare him to wear his own shirts.
Wouldn't that be funny? You know what, He was handsome
back then in the early days, and he is just
as handsome now. Well yeah, but I mean you turned
(11:48):
me loose on him like that, and it's gonna be like, Wow,
who's that on your shirt? Tim? I love it. I'll
tell you a T shirt that I've been wearing lately.
Dustin Lynch. You know I love this guy and Charlie.
One thing I think that we have to let everybody
here today, since we're talking about what's happening right now
in country music. We talked to the stars about everything,
(12:11):
not only what's going on in their current situation, but
the things that have affected them and stayed with them
since early in their career. And I think that this
question that you asked Dustin Lynch says so much about
who he is as an artist and why he has
(12:31):
become such a huge star. Open mic night, Bluebird Cafe.
You're like sixteen years old. What do you recall about
that night? Scared to death? Absolutely scared to death, which
I became addicted to. And I think maybe that's what
it is like. All the guys and girls end up
moving to wherever to to chase music for a you know,
a passion and a living. They're attracted whatever. There's that
(12:55):
instead of being scared of the butterflies, they become addicted
to the butterflies, and I think early on it takes
years to get over that. And weirdly enough, the Bluebird.
I got to do The Bluebird a year or two
ago and it had been eight years or nine years
since I've done it before, and I was I had
the same butterflies and at the time, I think I
was on tour with Luke Brian in front of literally
(13:16):
football stadiums full of people and fine out there. I
go to the Bluebird in front of seventy people and
I can barely get a drink of my beer. I'm
so nervous in your face. It's just it's so uh.
I guess in a way, it's the same way with
the opera. It means so much to me. Um, there's
a weight in the room, you know, and UM, so
it is. It's special place and in a challenging place
for me. Still, have you ever been to the Bluebird, folks, Well,
(13:40):
if you haven't, kind of describe it here. It's maybe
sixty seventy people and they're all packed in their real clothes.
There's no social distancing at the Bluebird, or hasn't been, um,
and you are really under the gun. You're under the
pressure situation there because you're gonna get instant judgment of
what you're singing and presenting. So you can imagine the
(14:00):
butterflies and the pressure of being there at the Blue instantly.
For those of you who watched the TV series Nashville,
so many of the scenes were shot there at the
Blue and then they recreated the Bluebird and its entirety
because they had to get back to work over there
with the business. And I think the main thing about
what Destin Lynch said that that really struck me. I
think it's so wonderful that artists such as Destin do
(14:23):
feel the importance and the weight and the responsibility of
the music. Who wasn't your speaking of the Grand ol
operation in some of these great places. It wasn't many
pearl who said that no matter how long you've been
on stage, if you don't get at least a little
nervous before you go on stage, you just don't care
enough over it. Yeah, you really are. It's amazing. Friends.
