  • Conversation with Isaac Carree
    2024/11/17

    Isaac and I crossed paths in 2017 when he joined us on the road and stage to sing background vocals for the Soul 2 Soul The World Tour, the third Soul 2 Soul duo co-headline tour Tim and Faith would do.

    Before that I knew as much about Isaac Carree as he knew about me, but over the years I've have had the opportunity to learn so much more about the real Isaac.

    Issac began his musical career as a young boy singing in church while his mother, Pastor Nancy Wilson of New Beginnings Community Outreach Church in Greensboro, North Carolina, would lead worship services, deliver sermons, and oversee various church ceremonies like baptisms, weddings, and funerals

    In 1990 Isaac would get the chance to work with gospel music's legendary John P. Kee and that would propel Isaac into the stratosphere of his genre finally earning him a Stellar Award for his achievements in the gospel music industry.

    I am so thrilled to be able to sit and talk with my dear friend.

    I truly hope you enjoy listening in while Isaac and I discuss just about everything, from growing-up ,to hard work, to the road, even determining if i was a "blind up" or a "blinds down" guy .

    Enjoy!

  • Conversation with Dave Spak
    2024/10/24

    For the last two years Dave has been crushing it out on the road with Country Music Star Tim McGraw as Lead drum technician/stage assistant and guitar catcher.

    Dave and I go back several years as friends and co-writers but I never really knew Dave's background or his journey to Nashville.

    Daves compassion and hard-working mentality are contagious and willingness to help others motivating.

  • Conversation with Denny Hemingson
    2024/10/09

    Denny Hemingson is one of the most down to earth people I know. His talents as a musician are amazing. Between writing, producing, and engineering clients from all across the globe, Denny is the full time band leader, musical director and steel guitar player for Country music Superstar Tim McGraw.

    When we're touring Denny and I are constantly in the gym or outdoors walking, getting some vitamin D. He is my/our bus functional medicine advisor and we've all come to him at one time or another, with questions concerning our aches and pains. Denny's desire to help others has motivated him to become a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner as well as a Precision Nutrition Coach.

    I hope you enjoy this conversation with Denny and I as we learn more about Denny and just what drives him to strive to be better everyday and to leave this place better than he found it.

  • Conversation with John Prestia
    2024/09/28

    I am so fortunate to have this gentleman as a friend.

    He is an outstanding songwriter, guitar player, vocalist, and performer. You can find him almost any night of the week playing music somewhere in and around Nashville.

    He co-wrote, with Dickey Betts, the Allman Brothers top ten single, "No One To Run With" which was featured in Adam Sandler's The Waterboy.

    When he's not guitar teching for Country Superstar Tim McGraw, John likes to spend his time "noodling" in his happy place, a converted garage he affectionally calls, "The Tone Zone".

    I love John's outlook on life and his love of music.

    I hope you enjoy my conversation with my friend, John Prestia.

  • Conversation with David Levita
    2024/08/01

    I caught up with our other guitar player David Levita.

    David has had an amazing life. From living on his own at 15 in New York City to busking on the streets of London, to laying down amazing guitar tracks for such great artists as Eminem, Faith Hill, Jewel, Meatloaf, Alanis Morissette and many more.

    David is a force to be reckoned with on stage and in this conversation we talk about the “Standing Room Only” tour with Tim McGraw and the amazing energy everyone brought including the audience, to make this one of the most exciting, electric, shows to date.

    We barely scratched the surface of this fantastic human being but I do hope you enjoy listening to our little conversation .

    Love! ✌🏽

  • Conversation with Adam Shoenfeld
    2024/07/24
    I catch up with my dear friend and musical brother, to have a little chat about life, the boldness of asking questions, and chasing the Muse.  I could go on and on and on and on about the musical genius of my dear friend Adam Shoenfeld. I mean come on, his guitar playing is featured on over 500 albums playing for artists such as Luke Bryan, Rascal Flatts, Rhett Akins, Big and Rich, Faith Hill, Tim McGraw, Blake Shelton, Florida Georgia Line, and many many more. He’s been nominated for the ACM guitar player of the year award in 2011, 2012, 2015, 2017, 2018, and 2019. When he’s not on stage with country superstar, Tim McGraw, you can find him in the studio, either recording, writing, producing, or being the front man for one of his other musical endeavors, Digital Brains, a rocking, “rip your face off” power trio or Sunkat, a vibe-filled vocal duo collaboration with wife Katie Cook-Shoenfeld.  But I really wanted to get to know Adam in a different light so we just pressed record. Poured the coffee and had a great little conversation. So sit back, grab your favorite beverage and enjoy my little discussion with guitarist songwriter producer just all around bad ass Adam Shoenfeld. ✌🏽
