2
00:00:11.640 --> 00:00:12.279

This is the pipe Man here on the Adventures pipe
4
00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:27.039
Man W four C Y Radio, and I'm here.
5
00:00:26.920 --> 00:00:28.559
With Austin Snow. What's up?
6
00:00:29.000 --> 00:00:33.000
Hey, Hey, fucking great that you're here at Bourbon and Beyond.
7
00:00:33.079 --> 00:00:33.960
Looking great to be here.
8
00:00:33.960 --> 00:00:34.119
Man.
9
00:00:34.200 --> 00:00:37.880
The weather is phenomenal, I know, right yeah, And I
10
00:00:37.880 --> 00:00:40.159
gotta tell you, I don't know if you've been here before.
11
00:00:40.600 --> 00:00:42.560
I am. I graduated high school here.
12
00:00:42.719 --> 00:00:45.079
So have you been to this festival?
13
00:00:45.119 --> 00:00:48.759
Okay, So they switched around the whole festival this year.
14
00:00:48.920 --> 00:00:51.759
It is so much better. So it used to be
15
00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:54.119
on the other side of the building where all the
16
00:00:54.240 --> 00:00:58.039
gravel is and you know that festival dust crap.
17
00:00:59.200 --> 00:00:59.840
Not this year.
18
00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:03.200
I was almost in one sense looking forward to coming.
19
00:01:03.359 --> 00:01:05.840
I was like dreading. I'm like, oh man, I'm.
20
00:01:05.719 --> 00:01:09.159
Gonna get the festival flow again. And then I walked
21
00:01:09.159 --> 00:01:11.599
out there, I'm like, oh my god, this is.
22
00:01:12.159 --> 00:01:14.719
As They got all of us inside, too, which is great.
23
00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:16.040
Usually you don't get that a festivals.
24
00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:16.879
That's amazing.
25
00:01:16.959 --> 00:01:18.599
Usually you're sitting out in the sun all day waiting
26
00:01:18.599 --> 00:01:20.480
to play. And right, I got a little ac going.
27
00:01:20.560 --> 00:01:24.280
So see, have you ever done that? Danny Wimmer festival before.
28
00:01:24.760 --> 00:01:25.599
I have no idea.
29
00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:30.280
Okay, y see how he treats the artists.
30
00:01:30.840 --> 00:01:33.920
I mean, like, what is your experience been already as
31
00:01:34.120 --> 00:01:36.400
being treated as an artist compared to other festivals.
32
00:01:36.480 --> 00:01:37.879
Yeah, the experience here has been great.
33
00:01:37.879 --> 00:01:40.000
I mean, like I said, just now, we got indoor
34
00:01:40.120 --> 00:01:42.719
green rooms, we get snacks, we got catering, we got
35
00:01:42.760 --> 00:01:45.000
all the good stuff, and they got golf course to
36
00:01:45.040 --> 00:01:47.480
haul us around everywhere. So right, I've definitely been at
37
00:01:47.519 --> 00:01:50.120
festivals where you get none of that. No, there's nothing
38
00:01:50.159 --> 00:01:53.200
but floading a nightmare yep, and just porta potties.
39
00:01:53.519 --> 00:01:55.760
Right, it's all there is. But you know, it's been great.
40
00:01:55.760 --> 00:01:56.359
It's been awesome.
41
00:01:56.519 --> 00:01:57.599
So yeah, that's cool.
42
00:01:57.640 --> 00:01:59.599
And I think it's even the way it's till it's
43
00:01:59.599 --> 00:02:01.439
better for you as an artist, because I always wonder
44
00:02:01.480 --> 00:02:02.319
with artists, I'm.
45
00:02:02.200 --> 00:02:06.200
Like, how the hell did they do this? And sing
46
00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:08.080
with that? Festival? Does?
47
00:02:08.240 --> 00:02:11.319
Like I lose my voice after a day of interviews
48
00:02:11.360 --> 00:02:14.280
from that. I can't imagine singing doing that.
49
00:02:14.439 --> 00:02:15.840
Yeah, I've had to learn the hard way that you
50
00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:17.560
got to take care of your voice for sure in
51
00:02:17.560 --> 00:02:20.520
this business. Yeah, it's actually it's harder to go sing
52
00:02:20.840 --> 00:02:22.039
up in the mountains than it is in.
53
00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:23.439
The dust because of the elevation.
54
00:02:23.639 --> 00:02:26.280
Yeah, like in Colorado up there, it's like it's rough.
55
00:02:26.520 --> 00:02:29.080
Yeah, I bet, And I'm tired before I get on stage,
56
00:02:29.120 --> 00:02:29.639
I know, right.
57
00:02:30.120 --> 00:02:32.199
And I love what you said because I think a
58
00:02:32.240 --> 00:02:34.599
lot of singers or a lot of people don't realize
59
00:02:34.599 --> 00:02:39.759
that singers like they develop and they evolve because of
60
00:02:39.879 --> 00:02:46.159
these experiences. And it's like finding your voice. That doesn't
61
00:02:46.280 --> 00:02:49.000
ruin your voice. It's hard work, isn't.
62
00:02:48.800 --> 00:02:49.639
It absolutely is?
63
00:02:49.800 --> 00:02:51.919
Yeah, And I feel like most of us that sing
64
00:02:51.960 --> 00:02:54.960
grew up the same way, just singing around, right, Nobody
65
00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:57.919
ever'd ever took a music singing class in school or
66
00:02:58.000 --> 00:02:59.560
high school or any of that. And so like when
67
00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:01.919
I started, that's all I knew was how I'd been
68
00:03:01.919 --> 00:03:03.400
singing my whole life. And then when you add that
69
00:03:03.439 --> 00:03:05.479
on top of playing one hundred and fifty shows a year,
70
00:03:05.520 --> 00:03:06.280
it stacks up.
71
00:03:06.360 --> 00:03:08.719
So you don't have the longevity if you do that.
72
00:03:08.759 --> 00:03:10.199
Like absolutely, I had that issue.
73
00:03:10.199 --> 00:03:12.560
Like, well, I was a teenager. I was singing thrash metal,
74
00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:15.479
but it was so new that they didn't have any
75
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:19.039
techniques or anything, So I just fried my throat yep.
76
00:03:19.080 --> 00:03:20.199
Because it's easy to do.
77
00:03:20.199 --> 00:03:22.719
You think that's how you're supposed to sing it. Yeah,
78
00:03:22.759 --> 00:03:25.319
like you know, you just sounds good from your gut.
79
00:03:25.439 --> 00:03:28.159
But when you're doing those gut oral sounds, you think
80
00:03:28.199 --> 00:03:30.080
you ask coming from your throat and then you fry
81
00:03:30.120 --> 00:03:32.240
it and yep, you can't even get past one song.
82
00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:32.639
Yep.
83
00:03:33.199 --> 00:03:35.319
I think I like focus on that because I don't
84
00:03:35.400 --> 00:03:39.520
think people realize how hard it is sometimes to be
85
00:03:39.520 --> 00:03:40.680
an artist as singer.
86
00:03:40.840 --> 00:03:43.360
Yeah, it's tough work, but there's also absolute worse things
87
00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:44.080
I could be doing.
88
00:03:44.199 --> 00:03:44.960
It could be harder.
89
00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:46.960
So I worked construction for a couple of years and
90
00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:49.840
then worked on airplanes for about four before that, and
91
00:03:49.879 --> 00:03:52.520
so I would much rather be warming up my vocal
92
00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:54.560
cords than there you go to the sun.
93
00:03:54.719 --> 00:03:57.360
So what was that moment in time in your life
94
00:03:57.360 --> 00:03:59.400
that you knew this is what you need to do.
95
00:03:59.840 --> 00:04:01.879
I don't think that there was ever any really a
96
00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:04.680
point that kind of changed my perspective on it.
97
00:04:04.759 --> 00:04:06.199
I joined the Air Force.
98
00:04:06.000 --> 00:04:09.199
Right after high school and it never your service the way,
99
00:04:09.240 --> 00:04:10.919
thank you so much. And I joined the Air Force
100
00:04:11.000 --> 00:04:13.439
r after high school, and then it was pretty much
101
00:04:13.439 --> 00:04:15.960
just bored. Man, I've really just got bored after basic training,
102
00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:18.120
and I was in my second phase of training, so
103
00:04:18.439 --> 00:04:20.560
we'd go to class at six am and get off
104
00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:22.000
at four and that was the first time we have
105
00:04:22.120 --> 00:04:23.639
any free time. So I had to figure out how
106
00:04:23.680 --> 00:04:25.000
to feel this free time that I had for the
107
00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:27.639
first time, and I bought a guitar. I started singing
108
00:04:27.680 --> 00:04:30.560
songs and kind of around them. Was when TikTok and
109
00:04:30.600 --> 00:04:32.240
all that kind of came along. So I just started
110
00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:35.160
doing covers and posting them, and I got bored with covers,
111
00:04:35.199 --> 00:04:37.519
so I started writing my own songs. And I did
112
00:04:37.560 --> 00:04:39.399
the same thing and kind of built the following that way,
113
00:04:39.439 --> 00:04:41.839
and then moved to Nashville after my enlistment. So I've
114
00:04:41.879 --> 00:04:44.240
never had a plan at all that.
115
00:04:43.959 --> 00:04:46.959
That's the way things work out, the way you really
116
00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:49.199
wanted to. Because when you have a plan and if
117
00:04:49.199 --> 00:04:52.079
the plan goes awry, then you're like, oh my god.
118
00:04:52.360 --> 00:04:54.800
But when you don't really have that plan, you could
119
00:04:54.839 --> 00:04:55.839
just be whoever.
120
00:04:55.519 --> 00:04:56.120
You want to be.
121
00:04:56.800 --> 00:05:00.279
That's my viewpoint, absolutely, And it's interesting because I don't
122
00:05:00.279 --> 00:05:00.800
know if you know this.
123
00:05:01.439 --> 00:05:03.279
There's a band playing here. Okay.
124
00:05:03.279 --> 00:05:05.439
My son's been in the army for almost twenty years,
125
00:05:06.040 --> 00:05:08.000
and I said to him what's wrong with you?
126
00:05:08.079 --> 00:05:09.399
Man? You should have gotten this job.
127
00:05:09.399 --> 00:05:11.680
There's a band that plays at all the Danny Wimmer
128
00:05:11.759 --> 00:05:13.120
festivals as you were.
129
00:05:13.560 --> 00:05:14.759
They're an army band.
130
00:05:15.040 --> 00:05:18.639
It's their job in the army to play music and
131
00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:23.120
play music festivals. I'm like, my son's psyops. Yeah, he
132
00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:26.199
jumps out airplanes into Somalia and stuff like that. I'm like,
133
00:05:26.680 --> 00:05:30.839
you couldn't have traded into torture training for maybe guitar lessons.
134
00:05:30.920 --> 00:05:33.399
Yeah, yeah, absolutely, Yeah.
135
00:05:33.439 --> 00:05:35.120
I didn't know enough about music theory to do that
136
00:05:35.160 --> 00:05:37.279
when I joined the Air Force, so I still don't
137
00:05:37.279 --> 00:05:38.240
know anything about music.
138
00:05:38.279 --> 00:05:39.759
I just do what sounds good, didn't.
139
00:05:39.560 --> 00:05:42.680
You know what, though, think about some of the greatest artists,
140
00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:47.759
it's not about knowing everything, about having that passion.
141
00:05:47.959 --> 00:05:50.160
Absolutely, And I think you lose a lot of creativity
142
00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:51.879
that way too. If you know too much about what
143
00:05:51.920 --> 00:05:54.360
you're doing, you lose a lot of creativity.
144
00:05:53.759 --> 00:05:56.839
Because then you're too focused on the tractor goal yeah,
145
00:05:57.120 --> 00:06:00.879
instead of just the heart. I I can tell you
146
00:06:01.000 --> 00:06:03.319
some of the best concerts I've ever went to weren't
147
00:06:03.360 --> 00:06:07.680
necessarily the best sounding singers or the best musicians. It
148
00:06:07.879 --> 00:06:11.560
was the energy, the vibe, what you feel going on.
149
00:06:11.680 --> 00:06:13.959
Yep, absolutely right. You gotta catch a vibe, man, that's
150
00:06:14.000 --> 00:06:16.000
the biggest thing there, it is. That's all people want
151
00:06:16.040 --> 00:06:17.399
to experience, is just a vibe.
152
00:06:17.439 --> 00:06:19.920
That's what it's about, especially nowadays with everything going on
153
00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:22.600
in the world. We just want to come here to escape.
154
00:06:22.360 --> 00:06:23.000
In your art.
155
00:06:23.079 --> 00:06:24.319
That is absolutely right man.
156
00:06:24.399 --> 00:06:28.920
You know speaking of that tell us about Home Sweet Hell.
157
00:06:30.079 --> 00:06:32.240
Yeah, the song or the projects, all of.
158
00:06:32.199 --> 00:06:35.879
It, because I just love that name altogether, because I
159
00:06:35.920 --> 00:06:38.519
feel like that when I go and do festivals in
160
00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:41.360
Europe and UK and i'd come back home, I'm like, oh,
161
00:06:41.399 --> 00:06:42.160
home sweet Hell.
162
00:06:42.240 --> 00:06:43.279
It's the way I feel.
163
00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:46.040
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
164
00:06:46.079 --> 00:06:49.279
So the EP kind of came last minute. I would say,
165
00:06:49.839 --> 00:06:52.759
a couple friends of mine and I wrote a song
166
00:06:52.920 --> 00:06:54.600
at I think it was three AM and.
167
00:06:54.600 --> 00:06:55.360
A Motel six.
168
00:06:55.639 --> 00:06:58.600
I love that late last year and I kind of
169
00:06:58.600 --> 00:07:01.079
wanted my project this year to be more towards the
170
00:07:01.160 --> 00:07:03.639
mental health side of things, just because that's where I
171
00:07:03.759 --> 00:07:06.160
found music is in that aspect and it got me
172
00:07:06.160 --> 00:07:07.680
through a lot of hard times in my life and
173
00:07:08.160 --> 00:07:09.680
that's kind of what I wanted to do for my
174
00:07:09.759 --> 00:07:11.560
own music. And I've had to grow a lot over
175
00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:13.879
the last three years doing this whole music thing, and
176
00:07:14.319 --> 00:07:16.759
I had, I would say, an unorthodox way of breaking
177
00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:18.879
into the industry because I feel like most people when
178
00:07:18.879 --> 00:07:20.480
they move to Nashville and do the whole music thing,
179
00:07:20.480 --> 00:07:23.040
they're there for a few years. They're there for upwards
180
00:07:23.040 --> 00:07:25.519
of ten years doing it with nothing going on, and
181
00:07:25.600 --> 00:07:27.560
so they have time to figure out themselves and learn
182
00:07:27.560 --> 00:07:29.279
about what they want to talk about and this and that.
183
00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:32.040
And just shot into the whole thing and signed my
184
00:07:32.079 --> 00:07:33.920
record deal five months into moving to town.
185
00:07:34.199 --> 00:07:34.480
Wow.
186
00:07:34.519 --> 00:07:37.000
And so when that ball starts rolling, you're still learning
187
00:07:37.040 --> 00:07:38.519
a lot about yourself and what you want to talk
188
00:07:38.519 --> 00:07:40.720
about in your story. And I feel like just this
189
00:07:40.839 --> 00:07:43.480
project is a result of me just growing into what
190
00:07:43.519 --> 00:07:44.319
I want to talk about.
191
00:07:44.759 --> 00:07:45.439
See, I love that.
192
00:07:45.639 --> 00:07:49.160
And yes, music is the best therapy for you, the artists,
193
00:07:49.160 --> 00:07:52.000
and for us the listeners. So there's a lot of
194
00:07:52.040 --> 00:07:56.000
people out there, especially nowadays, we're saying artists should just
195
00:07:56.079 --> 00:07:57.680
stick to the music.
196
00:07:57.480 --> 00:08:00.480
And not use it as a pulpit. I'm like, do
197
00:08:00.560 --> 00:08:03.920
you know what music is? That's the whole reasons It's
198
00:08:04.079 --> 00:08:04.959
always been that.
199
00:08:05.199 --> 00:08:09.920
Yeah, come on, And I think absolutely, especially if you
200
00:08:09.920 --> 00:08:13.199
have the audience, you should be speaking up about things
201
00:08:13.199 --> 00:08:15.680
that are important to Marie because there's other people out
202
00:08:15.680 --> 00:08:18.480
there that can relate exactly you get and get help
203
00:08:18.560 --> 00:08:18.839
from them.
204
00:08:18.879 --> 00:08:19.639
Yep, exactly.
205
00:08:19.680 --> 00:08:21.680
And also there's just such an influx of people doing
206
00:08:21.680 --> 00:08:23.720
it at the same time. Now you have to be
207
00:08:23.920 --> 00:08:26.040
more of a personality than you ever have been. People
208
00:08:26.079 --> 00:08:28.079
have to know you, people have to want to.
209
00:08:27.800 --> 00:08:28.519
Be around you.
210
00:08:28.600 --> 00:08:31.759
And that's why social media is eighty percent of our
211
00:08:31.839 --> 00:08:34.639
job now. It's not really the music anymore as much
212
00:08:34.639 --> 00:08:36.600
as it is just being in front of people's faces
213
00:08:36.600 --> 00:08:39.679
because so many people are doing it. Yeah, you have
214
00:08:39.720 --> 00:08:41.360
to pick aside and what you stand for, and you
215
00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:43.799
have to stand up for something because that's what people want.
216
00:08:43.840 --> 00:08:46.399
They want to dide with somebody exactly, kind of feel
217
00:08:46.440 --> 00:08:47.200
like they're close to them.
218
00:08:47.320 --> 00:08:50.759
So no doubt, And like it's funny you should say
219
00:08:50.759 --> 00:08:53.759
that because like I've managed certain artists and I have
220
00:08:53.879 --> 00:08:57.120
like associations with Sony and other record labels, and the
221
00:08:57.159 --> 00:09:02.159
first thing they want is the social media the music, right, Like, first,
222
00:09:02.240 --> 00:09:04.919
let's see their social media, following then you could send.
223
00:09:04.720 --> 00:09:07.399
Us some music, yeah seeing it out? Yeahah, So to
224
00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:11.120
your point, yeah, and I'll tell you what I was like.
225
00:09:12.240 --> 00:09:17.120
So you were the second ever in that artist program
226
00:09:17.159 --> 00:09:20.519
that Serious XM puts on. Oh my god, what did
227
00:09:20.519 --> 00:09:23.360
that feel like for that to happen? Because that I'm thinking,
228
00:09:23.879 --> 00:09:26.440
holy shit, that's pretty freaking cool.
229
00:09:26.559 --> 00:09:26.799
Yeah.
230
00:09:26.919 --> 00:09:29.480
Yeah, it's even cooler because going back on what I
231
00:09:29.519 --> 00:09:31.879
said earlier that I never had a plan. I never
232
00:09:32.120 --> 00:09:34.399
saw myself doing any of this, So it's like so
233
00:09:34.519 --> 00:09:37.759
much just out of thin air, and it's just kind
234
00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:38.960
of just been one of those things where like I
235
00:09:39.000 --> 00:09:41.480
wasn't expecting any of that. I wasn't expecting to even
236
00:09:41.480 --> 00:09:43.039
be here today or any of that. I just have
237
00:09:43.159 --> 00:09:45.480
been doing what I love, and it's just it's I
238
00:09:45.480 --> 00:09:47.320
feel like it's a testament of just doing what you
239
00:09:47.360 --> 00:09:48.639
love and it'll figure itself out.
240
00:09:48.679 --> 00:09:50.480
Soul that irons and I could tell you have the
241
00:09:50.519 --> 00:09:53.840
total passion for music and what they do and the
242
00:09:53.960 --> 00:09:57.039
love for it. There's sometimes ours are just going through motions.
243
00:09:57.080 --> 00:09:58.799
I'm like, you're in the wrong business if you're not
1
00:00:04.400 --> 00:00:11.320
2
00:00:11.640 --> 00:00:12.279
3
00:00:22.679 --> 00:00:25.000
4
00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:27.039
5
00:00:26.920 --> 00:00:28.559
6
00:00:29.000 --> 00:00:33.000
7
00:00:33.079 --> 00:00:33.960
8
00:00:33.960 --> 00:00:34.119
9
00:00:34.200 --> 00:00:37.880
10
00:00:37.880 --> 00:00:40.159
11
00:00:40.600 --> 00:00:42.560
12
00:00:42.719 --> 00:00:45.079
13
00:00:45.119 --> 00:00:48.759
14
00:00:48.920 --> 00:00:51.759
15
00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:54.119
16
00:00:54.240 --> 00:00:58.039

00:00:59.200 --> 00:00:59.840

00:01:09.159 --> 00:01:11.599
