#416 - Bobby + Eddie on their High School Bands and Best Concerts Ever + Jobs Before Making It: Stories from Lainey Wilson, Craig Morgan, Trisha Yearwood, Bailey Zimmerman, Nate Smith and more! Sep 19, 2023

Show notes

In this episode, Bobby and Eddie share stories from their bands in high school, best concerts they've ever been to as they hang out driving home from a trip. Then, we've taken stories from episodes over the years of artists talking about the jobs they had before they made it big. You'll hear from Craig Morgan, Matthew Ramsey of Old Dominion, Lainey Wilson, Bailey Zimmerman, Craig Campbell, John Michael Montgomery, Trisha Yearwood and Nate Smith. Some had odd jobs just to pay the bills while they pursued music full time...like working in an oil field, being a celebrity impersonator or having a 9-5 desk job at a label. Some didn't even tell people at their current job they could sing! But in the end, it all worked out the way it was supposed to!
