Talent alone gets you nowhere. You really have to have the grit, and you gotta have a love for people.
~ Zac Brown
To be a Southern Ground artist, you have to be a lifer. It's not about winning a karaoke contest or a television show to become famous. It's about really paying your dues. It's people I'm fans of and want to help in the business.
Other people pull off amazing festivals and events and things like that. I think ours is a little bit different, and that's what makes us distinct.
You have a feeling when you're recording, like, 'This is gonna translate really well,' and when you see it live, and it kind of proves that, that's an amazing feeling.
You can tell all our songs come from us and from our artists, the people we write with and travel with.
I always thought it was sad that you couldn't get anything really good to eat at concerts, so we sit down with our fans before every show and eat a gourmet meal that we made for them.
It does make me sad that there's a lot of great songs out there, and they're not going to see the light of day because they're competing with these tailgate songs.
