🟥 GUEST: GRANGER SMITH

After 24 years touring as an award-winning, platinum-selling, country music singer-songwriter, Smith chose to leave the music business to pursue a future in ministry. The "Like A River" summer tour in 2023 will mark his last as he moves full throttle towards his faith. Honoring his late son, River, his first book Like a River: Finding the Faith and Strength to Move Forward After Loss and Heartache, will be released on August 1, 2023 (W Publishing Group, and imprint of Thomas Nelson).

Compelled by the call to ministry, Smith intends to serve his local church under the teaching, council and leadership of his pastor and elders while he continues work on a Master's degree at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, along with public speaking and authorship.

🟥 GUEST: WALKER HAYES

Walker Hayes is an American country music singer and songwriter, born on December 27, 1979, in Mobile, Alabama. He moved to Nashville in 2005 to pursue a career in music. Before making it big, Hayes faced many struggles, working in various jobs, including waiting tables, while trying to break into the industry.

His career took off in 2010 when he signed with Capitol Records and released his first single, "Pants," which charted on the Billboard Hot Country Songs.

"Fancy Like" brought Hayes mainstream recognition, earning him multiple award nominations and collaborations.
