Episode 30 – I told you season 2 was going to be bigger and better. Probably one of the greatest songwriters of my time, the man who is writing the soundtrack to my life, Jonathan Singleton. I first came across Singleton in 2007, at a dive bar in Starkville, MS called Rick's Cafe. Still, to this day one of my favorite bars. This young scrappy guy was on a stool just him and his guitar belting out future #1 hits. I didn't know it at that time, but I was witnessing one of the first times if not the first, that Singleton ever opened for Eric Church. Now, 13 years later he is cranking out #1's with Luke Combs, Co-owns a publishing company, has an amazing family, and is not slowing down anytime soon. Jonathan is a powerhouse, his voice makes me think of what Angels will sound like, and the way he captures words on paper is like nothing else. I warn you this may be my longest episode to date, we have a lot of ground to cover, and it’s been amazing watching this scrappy dude on a bar stool on Starkville, MS grow into Co-Owner of 50 Egg Music.
