In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. One of my most cherished memories is at the New Daisy Theatre in Memphis. I saw a performance by Robert Earl Keen, and the magic of his music ignited a passion within me. I knew right then that I wanted to be a songwriter.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Al Green, I'm Still In Love with You Bob Dylan, Nashville Skyline Chris Stapleton, Traveller Al Green is the epitome of Memphis music, I love every second of this record. "Traveller" began a new era of country music where the song matters first. Bob Dylan taught me that to be a country music songwriter, you must be a storyteller first.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “California Line” I love California. The sunshine, the possibilities, the excitement. I fell in love for the first time there. California Line is about looking back on a memory that hangs just out of reach and the healing that takes place with time.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Playing my all-time favorite venue, ACL Live, in my hometown of Austin.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I would love to play Red Rocks Amphitheater and sell out a show at Webster Hall in NYC.
