  Speaker 1: But it definitely helped.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: I mean, and that's just the new that's the new age.

  Speaker 1: I'm get catch them out.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: The new Spider Man's out.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: I'm going on TikTok. But what what was that like
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: as you started to embrace that platform and was it
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: always a part of your plan or did it just happen?
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: I mean I was posting online, like on TikTok before
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: I moved to Nashville, just like covers and like random
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: stuff that I would ride and uh, but I had
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: like forty five thousand followers, Not that numbers matter by
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: any means, but like forty five thousand before I moved
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: to Nashville. But you know, it really started taking off
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: when you know, Winding and Whiskey and Wind Up Missing
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: you started you know, doing its thing on there. I
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: kind of just threw it up there.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: I was.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: I think Winding a Whiskey was hung over. One morning,
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: I was like, I just got this demo back listen
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: to this and it did what it did, And that
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: kind of just opened the door for a lot of
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: social media stuff for me.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: Is it important for now? You're life fizzle a lot
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: busier and a lot different between touring, sleeping on a bus,
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: hopping in a van whatever.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: I literally got back from New York probably like ten
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: hours ago.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: I'm so tired. Isn't it weird How you start your life.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: Your parents they don't hop in a van with strangers.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: Now that's how you get city this.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: Now, what's encouraged Now I'm I'm the one like, hey,
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: hop in the van.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: How important now that your life is so much busier,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: how important is it to continue to feed that beast
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: that is social media.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: Extremely I mean, and everything's you know, super hot right
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: now and everything's cool what's going on, But like you
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: still got to feed the beast, like you said.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: And you still you know, you gotta do well.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: It made it work in the first place because you
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: don't want to fizzle out because today's day and age
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: is very right now I want it now, you know,
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: it's like short attention span type things. So you just
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: got to keep feeding the people stuff that they didn't
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: know they wanted. And that's all TikTok is, like oh
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: I didn't I didn't know I wanted that, or like.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: So, how often do you as somebody who I mean,
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: you're a bona fide country artists now, but as somebody
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: who started as TikTok would call you a creator. How
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: much time do you spend just scrolling in downtime? Not
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: as much as you'd think.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: I mean recently, I've been like really tired, so I
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: kind of just like lay in bed and scroll and.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Tell your phone hits you in the face.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, pretty much, wake you know, But uh, not as
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: much as as uh other people have you try to
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: stay off of it as much as have.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: You seen the dad and his son the guys that
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: do the double chunk chocolate cookie? Those guys have you
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: seen them? Is it the Costco dad? Yeah? The Costco
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: I've seen that. I saw that the other day.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: I'm like, what is this is going on?
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: They made the song? Yeah, we don't and I know it.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: I'm not. I don't know because it was collab. I'm
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: just saying collabs are hot and country get it. When
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: when it comes to putting out music, I was just
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: scrolling the other day and uh, Bailey Zimmerman was like,
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: TEA new music, new music, new music. Are you doing
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: the same as often as you can with like, Hey,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: this song, it feels like there's somewhere As soon as
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: the song's done, it goes to TikTok before it goes
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: to the label, before it goes to the EP or
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: the album. Same. Yeah, It's it's pretty much like that.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: And lately I've been so damn busy that I just
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: I can't sit down, or I could, but like, I
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: don't want to do that in my downtime.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: That's just that's just me. You know.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: If I got two hours, I'm gonna I'm gonna take
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: a nap, you know. But it's it's been a lot
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: of like uh premeditated videos for the past like probably
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: two months, just because I've been so busy that it's like, Okay,
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: we're gonna throw some up today when throw yeah, and
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: that's what we do. But I need to get back
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: to like engaging with the fans again because I missed that.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: That's that's how I started, you know, going live and
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: like cooking breakfast or whatever. Like I'd sit on the
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: sit on the staircase and just play a bunch of
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: songs and for an hour.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: But uh, that's why I started. So I want to
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: get back to that and like engaging with the fans.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Is it harder to do stuff like that when it
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: goes from crea eating music as a hobby to a living. Yeah, yeah,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: I'd say so.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: It's just a lot.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: There's just no time.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: I mean, we get twenty four hours in a day
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: and I'm working probably for the past at least like
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: six or seven months. I'm working probably fifteen to eighteen
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: hours a day every single day.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: You know, harder than you thought it was, or you
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: expected to grind like this.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: I mean I expected a grind for sure, but it
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: is a little more than I thought. But like, I'm
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: not mad about it. I'm very thankful and you know,
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: we get to do stuff like this or you know,
• 5:37

  Speaker 1: you what's the last thing you bought off the TikTok shop.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: I bought one thing and I did it last week
• 6:07

• 6:11
  Speaker 2: popped up. I just woken up. So I was scrolling
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: a little bit. I just woken up, and I saw
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: the sweatshirt come across my thing and it's on the back.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: It's got like a duck with like a chain, a
• 6:21

• 6:25
  Speaker 2: and a sideways hat and it says smoking quack. And
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: I walked out to the lobby. I'm pretty sure Autumn
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: was there. I walked out to the lobby. I was like,
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: guess what I just bought off the TikTok shop. I
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: hope they don't scam me because I've never used it,
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: but look at this sweatshirt.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: I had to get it, dude, I bought. I bought.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: Uh So Tay and I lived down in spring Hill
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: and so we passed Cool Springs Mall on the way
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: down there, and so they have like a throwback and
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: like a resale shoe shop. Yeah, and so I bought.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: I got suckered on a pair of Jordan's on the
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: Okay talk shop and I'm like, dude, do I want
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: to like? This is gonna be like Chinese knock off whatever?
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: And I got him and they were legit. I to
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: see if they were so, and I got a deal
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: on them. So let's to soop is where it's at? Man, Okay,
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: all right, let's talk music now. You have you went
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: from getting your music out there, you got discovered. You've
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: told this story before, but give me, give me the
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: cliff notes of the steps between uploading an album to
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: sitting in an office signing a record label contract, and
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: how did that contact happen, how did you get how
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: did that bring you to where you are now?
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Okay, so like three years ago I saw my
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: publishing deal. So for the last three years, I've been
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: writing every single day up until like eight months ago
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: when I dropped one of a Whiskey literally every single
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: day for three years straight, sometimes even twice a day.
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: And that was the grind then and then we got
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: to a point where it was like, oh, let's start
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: teasing some music. So we did that, and then whin
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: a Whiskey happened, and then right after that was whine
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: I'm Missing You, and then those were like blowing up,
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: and then the labels started hitting up, like hey, what's
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: going on. We're like, we're waiting, waiting. So we waited
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: a long time, probably like three or four months to
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: even take a meeting, and so then we were like, okay,
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: we need help. This is a lot, and so we
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: started taking meetings. So I was in New York, I
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: was in l A, I was here, I was a
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: couple of other places and just taking those meetings. And
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: then I met my family over at UMG Nashville, and
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: I loved them. In Mercury up in New York.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: You got a good squad, that's for sure. You got
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: a good squad absolutely when it comes to the music
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: creation process, Now, what's different Because you used to be
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: able to pick up and write a song every day?
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: Is it still like that if you feel like it?
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: And honestly, I've been struggling a little bit being creative.
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: Good, I got ideas, that's right, give me a guitar.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: But I'm kidding, my god, they're bankers though, anyway.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: Go ahead, Sorry, Yeah, And it's just, uh, it's it's
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: been a struggle for me lately, just because I've been
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: so busy and like kind of checking boxes instead of
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: like having some time to be creative. But we're working
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: on that and we're kind of getting back into it.
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: And we did a little bit with this EP. I
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: rented out of Lake House, had a bunch of my
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: buddies up there for three or four days and just
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: wrote and you know, went on the boat and hung
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: out and cooked dinner and stuff like that. It was
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: really nice. And uh, that's what we did for the EP.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: And then I think we got like three songs that
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: we wrote that during that session or those three days
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: that are going on the album that we're working on,
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: which is really cool, you know, but yeah, I can't
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: really find time to be creative, which sucks.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: It'll come, it'll come right because you're building the house
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: right now, and then you can tell.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: And that's the way I'm looking at it. Yeah, I'm
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: building the foundation and the songs of the.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: House when it comes to So the EP just came out,
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: what was it five days ago?
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: Friday?
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Is it is the EP process frustrating because when
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: anybody gets into it's like I can't wait to make
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: an album, can't wait to make an album, gonna put
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: out an album, and then it's like, well, hang on,
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: here's an EP. Is it a little frustrating because you're like, no,
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: I want to focus on this bigger project.
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: It was really frustrating. Not like really, but like it was.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: It was frustrating because like, I have all these songs,
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: and I was so much so that I want to say, well,
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: we didn't have time to make an album, you know,
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: and so we're like, all right, let's settle for an EP,
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: pick eight songs, And I'm like, how am I supposed
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: to pick eight songs out of the five hundred and
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: seventy five that I have waiting, you know? But they
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: put it in perspectives like, hey, let's just drop the album,
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: all right, drop the EP, make it make sense for
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: the project coming out, and then give people songs to
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: sing on the road. Because I sold out a headline
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: tour that I'm on right now with three songs?
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: Really is that wild to say?
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: It's crazy, it's crazy to think about. But where's like
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: we need more music these people, these people are wanting music,
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: and you can't really headline with three songs. And we
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: did a couple of headline shows beforehand and it was like, oh,
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: this is tough, you know, playing for sixty to ninety
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: minutes with only three songs out.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: But when it comes, when it comes to the album,
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: and I won't ask for like full details because there's
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: an small army of people that will hop over the
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: count over there, and they look, I'm scared we'll both
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: get our asses kicked for people that are excited for
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: more right, because you said it's like because the EP's
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: out right and I'm sure people have digested it, and
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: it's like, well, now what so for the album is
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: that like a before the end of the year, early
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: next year.
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: It'll be next year, Okay, it'll be next.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: Year, early next year, mid next year, summer fall sring.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: Early ish early ish next year, and that's all. I'll say.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: We have a date. We have a date, and we
• 12:07

• 12:11
  Speaker 1: forward to it. Thank you for confirming here first when
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: it goes, hey, i'll edit it out. Well you start laughing.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: I was like, oh shit, that I just found something
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: else that wasn't could you imagine it? For once? Judging
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: by her, she went like this and you hit your face.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: I was like, I swear to god, they didn't tell
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: me nothing. The cool thing about getting to talk to
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: an artist who is so fresh to the mainstream experiences
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: you're experiencing things on tour backstage through your email through
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: your cell phone that you still get to go. We'll
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: have to bleep this, but holy shit, like I just
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: met so and so or holy shit, I got a
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: DM from Eric Churt saying I'm badass or something. What
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: are some stories like that that you can share with us, dude?
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: Okay, So I was just on the Luke Priant tour

• 13:17
  Speaker 2: I'm like, this is sick, all right. Cool, So we

• 13:30
  Speaker 2: dudes being bros, you know. It was. It was really
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: cool and like Jelly hits me up all the time,
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: checks in on me, like, hey, I remember a couple
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: of weeks ago he sent me a text. He goes, hey, man, uh,
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: because we hadn't talked in like probably a month, and he.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: Goes, hey, man, just checking in.

  Speaker 2: I know that this ride is like a rocket ship
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: right now. I know how that can be. I know
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: how they can feel. If you need anything, just let
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: me know. How are you doing? And like we just
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: talked and you know, over text, and like we were
