Episode #18: Matt Stell Feb 20, 2024

Big things come in small boxes. Big things also come in six foot seven country singers. This next guest quite possibly could be the tallest artist in country music, maybe in all of music. While I am quite excited, I am also quite intimidated to have this interview. After playing basketball at Drury University, this guest got accepted into Harvard University extension Pre-med program. He elected not to go and took the bold bet of becoming an artist in Nashville, TN, and that bet has paid off big time. After two number one songs on the radio, “Prayed For You” and “Everywhere But On,” appearing on Good Morning America, The Kelly Clarkson Show, The late Night Show, and Family Feud, and many tours, this artist is gearing up for a new project. I’m very excited to welcome to the studio…. Matt Stell.
