The hat with the feathers, I'm a feather.

Speaker 4 (01:01):
I did get on the bull and hoping for Chris Lane,
I've got on the bull.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Well, how long did you? Did you make it? Eight seconds?
Speaker 2 (01:07):
I don't think so. I think it's probably four or
five one thousand twelve seconds? It twice for twelve all right. Well,
the one thing that I did want to ask before
you want so many people want to talk to you,
is the versatility of your music. Have you always just
felt open to not worry about genre and just make
the best music because you've had a lot of seasons
of your life.
Speaker 4 (01:26):
Yeah, I would say starting out, for sure, I had
zero plan other than just make whatever feels right.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Yeah. In the last couple of years for my artistry,
I've narrowed it down.
Speaker 4 (01:37):
I want to make country music, yeah, and pay homage
to all those that went on before us. I feel
like we got to pass the torch. Yes, and uh,
you know, learn people some stuff. But when when I
go home and take the hat off, I'll throw on
some young thug and yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
Yeah, I turned off too, honestly, body, Thank you so much. Brother,
always good to see. Thank you. Yeah, I appreciate you.
Son Morgan in the building. What's up a.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
Party?
Speaker 2 (02:01):
And jalous? Honest, were you having any kind of stress
or anxiety coming to talk to us all at all?
Speaker 6 (02:09):
You guys read the same night.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
I was about to say not for John was so.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Great kind of showed us around Texas when we were
out there for the a sum So we have Kennedy
and a love for him.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
One of the questions that I would love to know,
and I know you got to talk to a lot
of people, is you've had cuts with several very successful artists.
You've obviously done well for yourself. When you write songs,
do you write specifically for someone else or do you
write it comes out and you're like, you know what,
I think that they would sound great on this. What
is that process like for you?
Speaker 7 (02:39):
I mean, I try to I try to write the
best idea typically and see where it lands. There's a
few times, like recently I've been like, hey, you know,
I know I'm looking ahead of what room I'm going
to be in, and I'm like, I like these two guys,
so I'll text them be like, hey, guys, I'd love
to try to shoot for me today or try to
shoot for al Dean whatever.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
Yeah, it's amazing.
Speaker 7 (03:00):
Yeah, thank you, thank you. It's sometimes it works out.
Most of the time it doesn't, so I try not
to do it too much. But if it, like I said,
if it's guys, I know that, you know, I know
we'll get what I do.
Speaker 6 (03:11):
I'll just be like, hey, let's try to write something
for me today. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
It's cool just to see the success in different with
different various artists, because obviously artists have different stops. Sure,
so I thought that was really cool that you're able
to write in different languages.
Speaker 6 (03:25):
And thanks man.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Who do you want to work with that you haven't
worked with yet?
Speaker 6 (03:30):
Cody Johnson's been up on the list for a while.
Speaker 7 (03:32):
I'd like to get a couple on him.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
Do you have one in the back pocket that you
would play him? Oh? For sure, I got it too,
that I might.
Speaker 6 (03:41):
Better with me cut it. Yeah, it's just it's fun.
Speaker 7 (03:48):
I love that side of it too, just like the
challenge of because you got publishers, you know, and they
do a lot on the back end of things, but
it's so hard to get cuts now that a lot
of it is just.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Well that's why I brought it. Yeah, you've definitely to
jump on with you.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
One of the best writers out there.
Speaker 6 (04:05):
Well, on gra I know what you're a.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Well, how's your week?
Speaker 6 (04:10):
Look?
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Is it crazy? I mean obviously a lot of interest
in everything that you're doing, so I would imagine you're
running around crazy this week.
Speaker 6 (04:17):
We do have some stuff.
Speaker 7 (04:19):
I think tomorrow is kind of my big day, just
a couple of industry parties I'm playing at and all that,
so it'll be fun.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
But I think that we're going to one of your performances. Yeah, tomorrow, Yes,
I can't wait. So we're excited for the performance. Yeah,
oh yeah, we love him.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
We can wait to see John Morgan perform. They're they're
wrapping us up. We keep him all day.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
We like old. Thank you so much for making time man,
we do. We can't wait to see.
Speaker 6 (04:43):
Yes, we will. We will you too.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
I am so excited. You're one of my favorite artists.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
On waiting for you to game. Tyler Braden, So I've
been I was in early. Yeah, absolutely, I've been hitting
Tyler Braiden up on h on Instagram, supporting the music
seventeen Try Losing One. Got into it. Then I saw
you covered radio Head at Stage Coach and I was like,
I love this guy.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
Man, I appreciate that. Thank you so man, Stage Coach.
That has been a while. It was one hundred and
eight degrees that day. Yeah, because you mentioned my wife
and she does photo video and she was running around.
We had like a twenty minute early set, so she
had to get all these shots and I come off
the stage and she is laid out on the ground,
just laid out.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
She's amazing now.
Speaker 6 (05:22):
Running around one hundred and eight degree weather.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
So a true story. I was working for a different
company at the time, but I was asked to host
part of Stage Coach. We shut production down four your
set because like now, we got and we turned the
monitor on. We were backstage and we watched your set
on the monitors at Stage Coach like that, probably four
or five years ago. Now it's been a while. Yeah,
thank you so.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
I first became a fan when I heard Devil, you know,
and I kept it on repeat for like literally, I
think I went to work and came home and that
song just stayed on repeat because I'm oh, don't y'all
don't want that person of me and that song Grace
resonated and then Guns N' Roses and just your whole album.
You're coming back to Charlotte February, just in case you
didn't know, because I know you're like, it's crazy, but
(06:01):
whenever you're on this stage, you give one hundred and
fifty percent. And if you don't know this, you mentioned
that your wife is a photographer. I love that you
care so much about your fans. Taylor will sign his
your set list, yeah, and she will go out in
the crowd and if you're lucky, you might walk out
of there with this set list an autograph set list.
Speaker 5 (06:21):
She's so good at while she's working and moving around
at spotting people that are singing the most songs and
all that good stuff. And so she'll take set lists
to like specific people she sees throughout the show, and
so she pays close attention.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
What is your most favorite song right now on the album?
Speaker 5 (06:35):
My favorite live is right on track. It's just about
being unsure at different points of your life. If you've
done what you're supposed to do, if you're where you're
supposed to be and you think you're the only person
that feels that way and you're not. We all reach
a certain age and think, oh, I'm supposed to have
two kids in a picket fence, right, We're supposed to
be at a certain level at a company or a
career or just whatever.
Speaker 6 (06:55):
And we've all been there, and you're right where.
Speaker 5 (06:56):
You're supposed to be, and everybody has a different path
and we can't trade. So you just got to live
with it.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
And that's what I love about your music is that
it tells stories about real, authentic things.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
So thank you for sharing it with me.
Speaker 6 (07:07):
Thank you, thank you so much.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
So obviously we're in the country genre, but I feel
like some of your music dips in and out of
a lot of genre. But we're in a time where
that space is growing. Absolutely. Have you ever felt like
the need to pull back or the need to expand,
because I feel like you could put your music in
a lot of different spaces.
Speaker 6 (07:23):
I'm the coincidental.
Speaker 5 (07:24):
We are looking at what the music want to put
out next year, and I am just trying to be
more intentional about how much of it.
Speaker 6 (07:32):
Is heavy, because I love to do that live, you know.
Speaker 5 (07:34):
But you got to pick your moments and you got
to have just these pillars of just sound and emotions
throughout shows. And I feel like we've always been pretty
good at that, but just adding more dynamics just makes
it that much better. So we have That's cool of
you to point that out, because I literally have said
that in meetings in the last two weeks.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Long story short, stay tuned. We guys, that sound like
we got something cool coming. Stay tuned. All right, thanks
so much, Tyler. Yes, your wife, I said, hello, for sure,
party in the building.
Speaker 8 (07:57):
I'll do it after this. Sorry, I got a short throws.
Ask me for one of the cough drop screwed up?
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Good? Okay, No, I'm fine. All right. Hey, I just
feel disrespectful and I'm like, no on on a cough
drop doing? Do you understand what they would do to us?
They're like hearty lost his voice.
Speaker 8 (08:12):
Talking to Campien sarily in four minutes you just hear
it go away at the end of the center, do.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
You need am instead of the fifteen?
Speaker 2 (08:20):
So you are bringing your tour to Raleigh, North Carolina.
We are excited about it. My question is does the
set list because you you dip toes in multiple multiple genres,
does the set list change geographically when you go to places?
Speaker 3 (08:34):
No?
Speaker 6 (08:34):
Never, nope, Oh amazing.
Speaker 8 (08:36):
I'm very calculated with my my the tour, and I'm
one of those that I think that like, the more
it becomes a well oiled machine, the more you do
the exact same thing every night, and so I just
I've always kind of been to the mindset of, like,
I want to put together a show and not just
like put it together a random set list every night and.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Make it like a production. You know.
Speaker 8 (08:56):
Yeah, so now it's it's always the same, but the
hype song changes every where.
Speaker 6 (09:00):
Last time we did Pete Pablo.
Speaker 8 (09:02):
Yeah, you might want to do that at North Carolina,
I think, I think so. I think maybe it was
sort but last time we were in North Carolina, we
hyped it with Petie Pablo.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
Well, he's from Raleigh, he's from rob Our National anthemout there.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
If you want to do that, it would go over well,
very good enough.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
So now that you have a baby, beautiful baby, congratulations,
has that changed your songwriting or your lifestyle at all?
Speaker 6 (09:26):
No? Not my lifestyle.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
Yeah, there's no more.
Speaker 8 (09:31):
I was just talking to my wife last night, like,
it's not a sad thing because we were kind of
like one of the last couples to have kids in
our friend groups. So we're kind of catching up. But
I was like, you know, I haven't just like been
to a bar with my friends in like six months,
and I was hoping she'd be like.
Speaker 6 (09:46):
Yeah, you should totally do that, and she was.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
Like, oh, that's crazy, and then just like look at
her phone.
Speaker 8 (09:49):
Yeah, I mean no, but you're very I mean it's
pretty conscious of what you do and high late, you
stay up and all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
But my songwriting hasn't really changed.
Speaker 8 (09:58):
I have, you know, ideas that I like want to write,
but I just I'm a perfectionist and I know, like
the first one that I dedicate to her, I want
it to be very special and like, you know, come
from the heart, and like, yes, not too much yet.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
This is gonna be a corny question, but it's corny
because I am super interested in it. Favorite country song obviously,
we spent it. It's great in the response, Thank you,
great for our fan base. If you were to be
put on the spot and just talk about one of
doesn't have to be the what would be one of
the songs that comes to mind could be my.
Speaker 8 (10:26):
Favorite country song. My number one favorite country song is
Homeboy by Eric Church.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Obviously, as North Carolina people. We subscribe to that and
I stay grad so I appreciate that. Yeah, yeah, I
just man that song.
Speaker 8 (10:39):
I had a very similar experience in high school or
a best good friend of mine and I got in
a little bit of trouble and then he ended up
going to prison.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Wow.
Speaker 8 (10:49):
So and then shortly after that, I moved to Nashville
and I heard Homeboy the first time, and it just
it rocked my world because it's something I could truly
relate to.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Yeah. Anyway, so that's that's it for me. That's my
number one favorite country song. Hardy Let's see you in Raleigh,
and I think Tucker Wetmore is gonna be there too. Yeah. Yeah,
I'm getting wild.
Oh look at that was bees. I like that.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Bernis, you're both sefist. I don't know rolled in here
you baby, I know.
Speaker 3 (00:08):
Randall King is like distracting everybody with the most gorgeous
baby ever.
Speaker 4 (00:12):
Last time we were on a plane together here, I think,
were you just about to have the baby when we
were together.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
And you left your bag on the plane. Yeah, scatterbrain
over here, happened. Nobody's judging, Yeah, nobody's. Nobody's judging.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
So you're coming to Charlotte Coyote Joe's, and we can't
wait because it's gonna be a party awesome.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
You want to be on stage and that you might
not get the first lyric. I'm gonna blow the little
I'll walk out in something like this for sure. It
goes crazy. Charlotte nineties when you're at the center. Yeah,

Speaker 1 (00:48):
The hat with the feathers, I'm a feather.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Cody Joe's before, Oh yeah you have Cody Joe's story got.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Hammered, which is what everybody does.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Got hammered. I love a honky tong, but.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
You didn't get on the You didn't get that hammered.
Speaker 4 (01:01):
I did get on the bull and hoping for Chris Lane,
I've got on the bull.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Well, how long did you? Did you make it? Eight seconds?
Speaker 2 (01:07):
I don't think so. I think it's probably four or
five one thousand twelve seconds? It twice for twelve all right. Well,
the one thing that I did want to ask before
you want so many people want to talk to you,
is the versatility of your music. Have you always just
felt open to not worry about genre and just make
the best music because you've had a lot of seasons
of your life.
Speaker 4 (01:26):
Yeah, I would say starting out, for sure, I had
zero plan other than just make whatever feels right.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Yeah. In the last couple of years for my artistry,
I've narrowed it down.
Speaker 4 (01:37):
I want to make country music, yeah, and pay homage
to all those that went on before us. I feel
like we got to pass the torch. Yes, and uh,
you know, learn people some stuff. But when when I
go home and take the hat off, I'll throw on
some young thug and yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
Yeah, I turned off too, honestly, body, Thank you so much. Brother,
always good to see. Thank you. Yeah, I appreciate you.
Son Morgan in the building. What's up a.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
Party?
Speaker 2 (02:01):
And jalous? Honest, were you having any kind of stress
or anxiety coming to talk to us all at all?
Speaker 6 (02:09):
You guys read the same night.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
I was about to say not for John was so.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Great kind of showed us around Texas when we were
out there for the a sum So we have Kennedy
and a love for him.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
One of the questions that I would love to know,
and I know you got to talk to a lot
of people, is you've had cuts with several very successful artists.
You've obviously done well for yourself. When you write songs,
do you write specifically for someone else or do you
write it comes out and you're like, you know what,
I think that they would sound great on this. What
is that process like for you?
Speaker 7 (02:39):
I mean, I try to I try to write the
best idea typically and see where it lands. There's a
few times, like recently I've been like, hey, you know,
I know I'm looking ahead of what room I'm going
to be in, and I'm like, I like these two guys,
so I'll text them be like, hey, guys, I'd love
to try to shoot for me today or try to
shoot for al Dean whatever.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
Yeah, it's amazing.
Speaker 7 (03:00):
Yeah, thank you, thank you. It's sometimes it works out.
Most of the time it doesn't, so I try not
to do it too much. But if it, like I said,
if it's guys, I know that, you know, I know
we'll get what I do.
Speaker 6 (03:11):
I'll just be like, hey, let's try to write something
for me today. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
It's cool just to see the success in different with
different various artists, because obviously artists have different stops. Sure,
so I thought that was really cool that you're able
to write in different languages.
Speaker 6 (03:25):
And thanks man.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Who do you want to work with that you haven't
worked with yet?
Speaker 6 (03:30):
Cody Johnson's been up on the list for a while.
Speaker 7 (03:32):
I'd like to get a couple on him.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
Do you have one in the back pocket that you
would play him? Oh? For sure, I got it too,
that I might.
Speaker 6 (03:41):
Better with me cut it. Yeah, it's just it's fun.
Speaker 7 (03:48):
I love that side of it too, just like the
challenge of because you got publishers, you know, and they
do a lot on the back end of things, but
it's so hard to get cuts now that a lot
of it is just.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Well that's why I brought it. Yeah, you've definitely to
jump on with you.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
One of the best writers out there.
Speaker 6 (04:05):
Well, on gra I know what you're a.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Well, how's your week?
Speaker 6 (04:10):
Look?
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Is it crazy? I mean obviously a lot of interest
in everything that you're doing, so I would imagine you're
running around crazy this week.
Speaker 6 (04:17):
We do have some stuff.
Speaker 7 (04:19):
I think tomorrow is kind of my big day, just
a couple of industry parties I'm playing at and all that,
so it'll be fun.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
But I think that we're going to one of your performances. Yeah, tomorrow, Yes,
I can't wait. So we're excited for the performance. Yeah,
oh yeah, we love him.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
We can wait to see John Morgan perform. They're they're
wrapping us up. We keep him all day.
Speaker 2 (04:38):

Speaker 6 (04:43):
Yes, we will. We will you too.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
I am so excited. You're one of my favorite artists.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
On waiting for you to game. Tyler Braden, So I've
been I was in early. Yeah, absolutely, I've been hitting
Tyler Braiden up on h on Instagram, supporting the music
seventeen Try Losing One. Got into it. Then I saw
you covered radio Head at Stage Coach and I was like,
I love this guy.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
Man, I appreciate that. Thank you so man, Stage Coach.
That has been a while. It was one hundred and
eight degrees that day. Yeah, because you mentioned my wife
and she does photo video and she was running around.
We had like a twenty minute early set, so she
had to get all these shots and I come off
the stage and she is laid out on the ground,
just laid out.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
She's amazing now.
Speaker 6 (05:22):
Running around one hundred and eight degree weather.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
So a true story. I was working for a different
company at the time, but I was asked to host
part of Stage Coach. We shut production down four your
set because like now, we got and we turned the
monitor on. We were backstage and we watched your set
on the monitors at Stage Coach like that, probably four
or five years ago. Now it's been a while. Yeah,
thank you so.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
I first became a fan when I heard Devil, you know,
and I kept it on repeat for like literally, I
think I went to work and came home and that
song just stayed on repeat because I'm oh, don't y'all
don't want that person of me and that song Grace
resonated and then Guns N' Roses and just your whole album.
You're coming back to Charlotte February, just in case you
didn't know, because I know you're like, it's crazy, but
(06:01):
whenever you're on this stage, you give one hundred and
fifty percent. And if you don't know this, you mentioned
that your wife is a photographer. I love that you
care so much about your fans. Taylor will sign his
your set list, yeah, and she will go out in
the crowd and if you're lucky, you might walk out
of there with this set list an autograph set list.
Speaker 5 (06:21):
She's so good at while she's working and moving around
at spotting people that are singing the most songs and
all that good stuff. And so she'll take set lists
to like specific people she sees throughout the show, and
so she pays close attention.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
What is your most favorite song right now on the album?
Speaker 5 (06:35):
My favorite live is right on track. It's just about
being unsure at different points of your life. If you've
done what you're supposed to do, if you're where you're
supposed to be and you think you're the only person
that feels that way and you're not. We all reach
a certain age and think, oh, I'm supposed to have
two kids in a picket fence, right, We're supposed to
be at a certain level at a company or a
career or just whatever.
Speaker 6 (06:55):
And we've all been there, and you're right where.
Speaker 5 (06:56):
You're supposed to be, and everybody has a different path
and we can't trade. So you just got to live
with it.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
And that's what I love about your music is that
it tells stories about real, authentic things.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
So thank you for sharing it with me.
Speaker 6 (07:07):
Thank you, thank you so much.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
So obviously we're in the country genre, but I feel
like some of your music dips in and out of
a lot of genre. But we're in a time where
that space is growing. Absolutely. Have you ever felt like
the need to pull back or the need to expand,
because I feel like you could put your music in
a lot of different spaces.
Speaker 6 (07:23):
I'm the coincidental.
Speaker 5 (07:24):
We are looking at what the music want to put
out next year, and I am just trying to be
more intentional about how much of it.
Speaker 6 (07:32):
Is heavy, because I love to do that live, you know.
Speaker 5 (07:34):
But you got to pick your moments and you got
to have just these pillars of just sound and emotions
throughout shows. And I feel like we've always been pretty
good at that, but just adding more dynamics just makes
it that much better. So we have That's cool of
you to point that out, because I literally have said
that in meetings in the last two weeks.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Long story short, stay tuned. We guys, that sound like
we got something cool coming. Stay tuned. All right, thanks
so much, Tyler. Yes, your wife, I said, hello, for sure,
party in the building.
Speaker 8 (07:57):

Ask me for one of the cough drop screwed up?
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Good? Okay, No, I'm fine. All right. Hey, I just
feel disrespectful and I'm like, no on on a cough
drop doing? Do you understand what they would do to us?
They're like hearty lost his voice.
Speaker 8 (08:12):
Talking to Campien sarily in four minutes you just hear
it go away at the end of the center, do.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
You need am instead of the fifteen?
Speaker 2 (08:20):
So you are bringing your tour to Raleigh, North Carolina.
We are excited about it. My question is does the
set list because you you dip toes in multiple multiple genres,
does the set list change geographically when you go to places?
Speaker 3 (08:34):
No?
Speaker 6 (08:34):
Never, nope, Oh amazing.
Speaker 8 (08:36):
I'm very calculated with my my the tour, and I'm
one of those that I think that like, the more
it becomes a well oiled machine, the more you do
the exact same thing every night, and so I just
I've always kind of been to the mindset of, like,
I want to put together a show and not just
like put it together a random set list every night and.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Make it like a production. You know.
Speaker 8 (08:56):
Yeah, so now it's it's always the same, but the
hype song changes every where.
Speaker 6 (09:00):
Last time we did Pete Pablo.
Speaker 8 (09:02):
Yeah, you might want to do that at North Carolina,
I think, I think so. I think maybe it was
sort but last time we were in North Carolina, we
hyped it with Petie Pablo.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
Well, he's from Raleigh, he's from rob Our National anthemout there.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
If you want to do that, it would go over well,
very good enough.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
So now that you have a baby, beautiful baby, congratulations,
has that changed your songwriting or your lifestyle at all?
Speaker 6 (09:26):
No? Not my lifestyle.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
Yeah, there's no more.
Speaker 8 (09:31):
I was just talking to my wife last night, like,
it's not a sad thing because we were kind of
like one of the last couples to have kids in
our friend groups. So we're kind of catching up. But
I was like, you know, I haven't just like been
to a bar with my friends in like six months,
and I was hoping she'd be like.
Speaker 6 (09:46):
Yeah, you should totally do that, and she was.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
Like, oh, that's crazy, and then just like look at
her phone.
Speaker 8 (09:49):
Yeah, I mean no, but you're very I mean it's
pretty conscious of what you do and high late, you
stay up and all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
But my songwriting hasn't really changed.
Speaker 8 (09:58):
I have, you know, ideas that I like want to write,
but I just I'm a perfectionist and I know, like
the first one that I dedicate to her, I want
it to be very special and like, you know, come
from the heart, and like, yes, not too much yet.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
This is gonna be a corny question, but it's corny
because I am super interested in it. Favorite country song obviously,
we spent it. It's great in the response, Thank you,
great for our fan base. If you were to be
put on the spot and just talk about one of
doesn't have to be the what would be one of
the songs that comes to mind could be my.
Speaker 8 (10:26):
Favorite country song. My number one favorite country song is
Homeboy by Eric Church.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Obviously, as North Carolina people. We subscribe to that and
I stay grad so I appreciate that. Yeah, yeah, I
just man that song.
Speaker 8 (10:39):
I had a very similar experience in high school or
a best good friend of mine and I got in
a little bit of trouble and then he ended up
going to prison.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Wow.
Speaker 8 (10:49):
So and then shortly after that, I moved to Nashville
and I heard Homeboy the first time, and it just
it rocked my world because it's something I could truly
relate to.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Yeah. Anyway, so that's that's it for me. That's my
number one favorite country song. Hardy Let's see you in Raleigh,
and I think Tucker Wetmore is gonna be there too. Yeah. Yeah,
