Have you ever wondered what its like to be a country artist outside the U.S.? To have a career around a genre that has its roots so firmly in American culture? 

 

We talk all about that this week with Canadian Country artist Justin LaBrash. 

 

Out discussion covered: 

• How Canada is creating it’s own form of “country music”   
• Why he’s not trying to move to Nashville 
• How he gets his singles on radio as an indie artist (and why he does it himself) 
• Why he would design a country cover set differently in Canada than he would in America 
• The difference between booking shows in Canada vs. America 
• How he broke 100 gigs in 2018 and was able to make his artist project bring in a full time living 
• Why he’s glad he took online berklee classes (and which classes he’s glad he didn’t take)   
• What the heck “French country music” is
