When you see Rachel Stacy perform, you are struck by the extreme confidence that she exudes. Whether she is belting out a rocker, a heartbreaking country ballad, or absolutely mesmerizing the crowd with her show-stopping fiddle chops, Rachel Stacy commands attention. Her hard-earned confidence belies the real-life experiences that have brought her to today. A veteran entertainer who has performed with a "who's who" of the music business, Rachel spent years not only trying to claw her way to the top of the heap as a woman in a male dominated business, but she also spent years with the negative effects of the abuse she dealt with as a child, and battled drug and alcohol addictions in her later years that would have taken a lesser person out. "I'm a victor, not a victim," Rachel says. "I was always told to NEVER talk about these things. I am vulnerable and not always comfortable sharing my story. But it is my story to tell. If I can help someone who is struggling with my words or my songs, that's what I'm going to do." To understand Rachel's determination, you have to understand the path she took to get here. Born in Marion, Illinois she was raised in Oklahoma City and moved to California in her mid-twenties and landed at UCI - University of California, Irvine where she studied dance and drama and graduated at the top of her class. She then moved a few towns over to Hollywood where she became a regular act at Slim Jim Phantom's (from the band Stray Cats) legendary Cat Club on Sunset Strip. That opened doors for her to be booked at The Viper Room, Whiskey A Go Go, The Roxy, The Gig on Melrose, and many more. In that heady rock 'n roll environment Rachel began to find her voice, her sound, her crowd pleasing stage show. She began touring across the country opening for ZZ Top, George Thorogood, Keith Anderson, and others. During that time Rachel began focusing hard on her songwriting and recorded her sophomore album at Radio Recorders in LA. She released the lead single “Damn You Look Good” to radio and it caught the attention of programmers in the Texas/Red Dirt genre and received airplay across Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Kansas. She began performing regularly in the region and was encouraged to relocate to be closer to the fan base she was courting. “I was very excited about the reception my music was receiving, and I felt at the time that Texas is where I needed to be.” Rachel recalls. “I sold everything I owned and loaded my jeep with my instruments and two cats and moved to the Dallas/Ft. Worth area.” Rachel Stacy is at a point where she is very excited about the future and is not wasting any time in moving the ball forward. But that comes as no surprise from someone who has shared stages with Maren Morris, Willie, Merle Haggard, Tanya Tucker, and many of the greatest artists of our time. You see, it takes not only extraordinary talent, but great self-confidence to stand toe to toe with legends. Clear-eyed and sober, Rachel is up for the next phase of her career and more sure of herself than ever. That confidence is front and center in her latest single, "Empty Glass," a sad ballad that sounds like the life Rachel battled to escape. She wraps her smokey vocals around every single lyric of this classic country heartbreaker and makes it herown. When she sings about closing time with only an "Empty Glass" for company, you believe her. It's because she's lived the story. Rachel has spent much of her life entertaining in dance halls, honky tonks and on concert stages. Those experiences have allowed her to forge a unique style that has made her an in-demand entertainer in the neon bathed world that lives in "Empty Glass." Pull up a bar stool and join her there. #rachelstacy #musician #songwriter #singer #fiddler #nashvillerecordingartist #livewithcdp #talkshow #chrispomay #barrycullenchevrolet

If you are even a little bit familiar with Texas / Red Dirt music, you are most likely well acquainted with the Braun brothers.  The four Braun brothers, originally from Idaho, have all found success in the Texas / Red Dirt genres with their music.  Micky Braun, the youngest of the clan, followed his older brothers, Willy and Cody, of the band Reckless Kelly, to Texas around the turn of the century and he’s never looked back. In this interview Micky explains that in the early years of the band’s existence the Motorcars would take almost ANY gig they were offered.  They were determined to prove that they were a legitimate hard-working band that deserved its’ place in the genre.  Now, some twenty years later, the proof is in the pudding. Micky and the Motorcars are on the eve of releasing their new record “Long Time Comin’” produced by Keith Gattis.  Micky explains that this was the first project they’d recorded outside of Texas and talks a little about the experience of recording in Nashville with session players. Another new turn of events with this latest Motorcar release is that Micky’s brother Gary, who is also in the band, was a writer on several of the songs as well as handling the lead vocals on the recording. You can order your copy of “Long Time Comin” by clicking HERE. Sit back and relax as you listen to Micky tell us what is was like to grow up in a very musical family in Idaho and find success as a musician in Texas!

While Adam Hood is well-known in the Texas and Red Dirt Music scene today, it all started for him in his home state of Alabama.  Many musicians and songwriters in the scene harken back to a time period in their lives (that usually coincides with their college years) when playing music became a possibility for a career.  Not for Adam Hood.  Adam was already playing a weekly gig, paying $150, at the ripe old age of 16!  So, to say he’s a veteran of this music thing is a fair assessment.  I’d first been introduced to the music of Adam Hood when I ordered a Dell Computer back in 2004.  Pre-loaded on to every Dell Computer that year were a handful of songs from several artists.  To my good fortune, and with “A” being the first letter in the alphabet, Adam Hood and his song, “Play Something We Know” was at the top of the list.  I was instantly a fan, and the rest, as they say, is history.  During the interview Adam and I recount this story and how to this day, many folks still bring up getting introduced to his music through their Dell computer. Adam tells us how using a industry person in Austin, TX to help him put out his 2004 EP “6th Street”, introduced him to others in the Texas Music and Red Dirt scene.  This eventually led to friendships and music contacts with the likes of Miranda Lambert and Frank Liddell. After meeting Frank, Adam started writing for him in the mid to late 2000’s.  He was also starting to do more co-writing with folks in the Texas/Red Dirt scene by this time with artists like Stoney LaRue and Wade Bowen. We visited quite a bit about Adam Hood, “the songwriter” on top of Adam Hood “the artist.” While Hood says he can’t imagine being one, without the other, he does have extensive songwriting credits and has wrote with some of the best out their including now-superstar, Chris Stapleton and has had cuts with many Texas/Red Dirt acts as well as national acts like Little Big Town.  You can check out a good deal of his songwriting credits by clicking HERE. We eventually talk about things like being a family-man as well as a touring musician and songwriter which Hood has navigated quite well. So, there’s your brief and written intro to this episode.  But like always, the only way to truly experience what we captured in our interview with Adam Hood, is to press that play button and listen.

Shampoo is better. I go on first and clean the hair. Conditioner is better. I leave the hair silky and smooth. Oh, really, fool? Really. Stop looking at me, swan. This week I volunteered to connect those satellites between I40 and the Lonestar state to chew the Buc-ee’s jerky and get a little red dirt under my nails with one of my favorite singers on the planet Stewart Mann.  Statesboro has had many a hit on the Texas Red Dirt scene and shared the stage with too many titans to mention. Stewart has one of the most soulful voices on the planet. Rumor has it he may have sang a Sam Cooke song one rainy Dallas  night with yours truly. Stewart and spend our time talking about our journeys through the music business, getting older, what does it all mean, and balancing it all with family. So sit back, buckle up and adjust the rearview, the exits for McKenzie and Parkers Crossroad are just ahead on this weeks episode of Nashville to Memphis.
