From field parties to “shot and a chaser” releases, Noah Hicks knows how to put out a song with a bang. Not to mention, anyone who can get a cut and a video with Rhett Akins this early in their career has to have something going for them. Check out this week’s episode where we […]

Boy, was this a fun one. We generally have a few when recording, but it’s definitely a first that someone brings a new method of drinking beer to the table.   But that’s just Canaan. He’s done everything from writing his own album end to end to radio hits and major tours. Now he’s returning […]

Vinnie is another member of the emerging Nashville Americana crew who we’ve had the opportunity to interview (see Nate Fredrick, Gabe Lee, etc.). But Vinnie’s northern roots give his sound a bit more Springsteen and Henley. Check out this week’s episode to hear more about Vinnie’s history playing Philly dive bars and how he got […]

Lainey Wilson has taken “bell bottom country” to new heights with her new record, Sayin’ What I’m Thinkin’.  While we’re excited about the success of Things a Man Oughta Know, the record opens with a banger in Neon Diamonds and doesn’t quit. Check out this week’s episode with an exclusive version of Things a Man Oughta Know and don’t forget […]

Jameson is a songwriting, beer drinking, finger pointing son of a gun.  Over the past two years he’s toured with Luke Combs, wrote his first #1 and got his first #1 song to country radio with Some Girls. It turned out for the best that COVID cancelled our initial podcast with Jameson, as Kurt got […]

This week welcome one of our first guests, Kenton Bryant, back to the podcast. A member of the 50 egg team and a disciple of Jonathan Singleton tree, Kenton’s a working man’s songwriter who can churn out well crafted songs just as well alone as he can working with the best in the world. And […]

Nate’s Different Shade of Blue is an exciting, complete album. Tracks like Paducah and Caroline will (and should) garner attention, but every track offers a different vibe while somehow providing cohesion to the greater work. We love Nate and this record. Hear more about it on this week’s podcast with Nicky T and Kurt Ozan.

What can you say about Kurt….well first and foremost he’s our favorite former sushi delivery guy.  That and he’s got a knack for picking up pretty much anything and figuring it out. This is one of the many reasons we bonded with Kurt and have chosen him to be the new co-host of the Raised […]

Most people know Trey by know, but what they likely know him for is only one dimension of his deep character.  Who would’ve thought the guy who cut the raunchiest country song of recent memory (albeit still a damn good song) also spends nights listening to inspirational podcasts and putting together vision boards. Don’t get […]

It’s been a few since we last sat down with Sam, but damn if he hasn’t stayed rowdy in our absence. After catching all the fish in his pond, lockdown got to Sam and he hit the road to meet the people. The Backyards and Bonfires tour was sent Sam into the homes of fans […]
