In this episode of Press Play, Cajun-born singer-songwriter Drew Landry sits down with Daily Inter Lake reporter Taylor Inman for a grounded and wide-ranging conversation about songwriting, storytelling, and staying connected to your roots. Known for his raw and honest lyrics, Landry shares the experiences that shaped his voice—from growing up in Louisiana to building a life in East Glacier, Montana.
While sitting on the stage at Great Northern Bar in downtown Whitefish, they discuss fighting for what you believe in, the importance of honoring where you come from, and the drive to create something that speaks to real people. If you’re drawn to music with heart, grit, and purpose, this one’s for you.
Catch a special preview of Drew Landry before his set at Under the Big Sky Festival! He’ll be performing live in the Daily Inter Lake press room for an intimate lunchtime show on Friday, June 27, 2025.
