1
00:00:04.360 --> 00:00:05.639
Hey, you unto.
2
00:00:06.120 --> 00:00:12.720
Yes, that's true. For see why for you you will?
3
00:00:22.640 --> 00:00:24.920
This is the pipe Man here on the Adventures pipe
4
00:00:24.920 --> 00:00:25.679
Man W four c.
5
00:00:25.879 --> 00:00:28.559
Y Radio, and I'm here with Bourbon Revival.
6
00:00:29.079 --> 00:00:29.839
Nice Now.
7
00:00:29.879 --> 00:00:31.839
A lot of times at festivals I do that so
8
00:00:31.879 --> 00:00:34.479
I don't fuck up the pronunciation of a band name,
9
00:00:34.479 --> 00:00:36.320
because it's like the worst thing you could do. I
10
00:00:36.359 --> 00:00:39.719
think if you're in radio, I'd have a hard time
11
00:00:39.840 --> 00:00:43.439
being at Bourbon Beyond. To mess up the pronunciation of
12
00:00:43.479 --> 00:00:44.159
your bad name.
13
00:00:44.520 --> 00:00:46.439
That would be bad. I should be kicked at a
14
00:00:46.479 --> 00:00:48.240
festival if that happens, Well.
15
00:00:48.159 --> 00:00:50.679
Don't feel bad if you did. We wouldn't. We wouldn't
16
00:00:50.679 --> 00:00:51.359
hold it against you.
17
00:00:52.200 --> 00:00:54.600
And has anybody ever done that? I do it.
18
00:00:54.640 --> 00:00:57.320
I always pronounce hard. I call ourselves Bourbon and Beyond.
19
00:00:57.359 --> 00:01:03.719
Sometimes since this whole thing started, every time we've talked
20
00:01:03.719 --> 00:01:05.840
about this festival, it's like, yeah, we're going to Bourbon
21
00:01:05.879 --> 00:01:07.159
and Bourbon and Revival.
22
00:01:08.560 --> 00:01:12.439
I think we should tell Danny he needs to rebrand
23
00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:16.359
and rename this Bourbon and Revival. And then you are
24
00:01:16.480 --> 00:01:20.359
the headliner every year from the house band. Yeah exactly.
25
00:01:22.439 --> 00:01:27.319
So you guys won the Battle of the Band, did I? Yes, Yes,
26
00:01:27.400 --> 00:01:29.719
that was Birdie told me that, Did I hear that?
27
00:01:29.840 --> 00:01:29.920
Right?
28
00:01:30.040 --> 00:01:30.200
Yeah?
29
00:01:30.239 --> 00:01:32.439
It was a battle of Strings twenty twenty five. They
30
00:01:32.480 --> 00:01:34.799
held the contest here in Louisville, Kentucky at the Fox
31
00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:38.680
denn And we got into contest and pushed some stuff
32
00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:41.239
aside so that we can make the dates. And we
33
00:01:41.239 --> 00:01:43.719
were just so excited that we won. We couldn't really
34
00:01:43.719 --> 00:01:45.519
believe it really, but it was an experience.
35
00:01:45.519 --> 00:01:48.879
Nonetheless, do you believe it now or are you still
36
00:01:48.959 --> 00:01:51.599
kind of still kind of in all that we're here,
37
00:01:51.640 --> 00:01:55.079
like being backstage and the artist areas, Like it's a
38
00:01:55.120 --> 00:01:56.519
whole new world I've never seen.
39
00:01:56.760 --> 00:01:59.840
And I love that badass.
40
00:01:58.879 --> 00:02:01.959
And that gives people like me hope, man, because like
41
00:02:02.040 --> 00:02:04.079
I was thinking of starting a band and wearing a
42
00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:08.840
mask of a kid so that I could fool everybody
43
00:02:08.840 --> 00:02:11.039
and then like get popular, and then I pulled the
44
00:02:11.080 --> 00:02:11.599
mask off.
45
00:02:11.639 --> 00:02:13.039
Haha, I'm fucking fifty eight.
46
00:02:15.639 --> 00:02:17.240
That'd be great. I support that.
47
00:02:17.560 --> 00:02:19.639
Yeah, that would be a great gimmick, man.
48
00:02:19.759 --> 00:02:21.960
I mean, well, you know how many bands have masks
49
00:02:21.960 --> 00:02:23.599
You don't even know who their artists are.
50
00:02:23.639 --> 00:02:25.599
They just you just know they're going to be in costume.
51
00:02:25.879 --> 00:02:26.759
That's what I'm saying.
52
00:02:27.080 --> 00:02:32.719
Listen, I've interviewed Gwar and I've interviewed them without their costumes,
53
00:02:32.879 --> 00:02:35.639
and I've said to them, guys, you look a lot
54
00:02:35.680 --> 00:02:36.599
bearing your costumes.
55
00:02:36.599 --> 00:02:38.479
I'm glad you do that.
56
00:02:38.479 --> 00:02:40.800
That might be where we would stand too, like looking better.
57
00:02:41.319 --> 00:02:43.400
I've always told Matt he's got a face for the radio.
58
00:02:43.479 --> 00:02:43.680
Though.
59
00:02:43.800 --> 00:02:47.759
There you go, there you go, good, good thigy good thing.
60
00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:50.759
We're on radio right now with no cameras right right.
61
00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:56.240
So, speaking of being back here, what's your experience been
62
00:02:56.479 --> 00:03:00.280
so far of how Danny Wimmer treats artists like you
63
00:03:00.400 --> 00:03:03.280
won Battle of the Bands. It's not like you're the headliner,
64
00:03:04.319 --> 00:03:06.039
but don't you get treated like as if.
65
00:03:05.960 --> 00:03:09.960
We feel like we are walking back there and all
66
00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:11.599
the I mean, of course you have to have your
67
00:03:11.639 --> 00:03:15.360
credentials and stuff for but everyone's treated us like top notch.
68
00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:16.199
It's so nice.
69
00:03:16.240 --> 00:03:18.599
The hospitality has been great and it's really something to
70
00:03:18.599 --> 00:03:19.400
speak for itself.
71
00:03:19.599 --> 00:03:21.520
That's way cool. And let him add to it too,
72
00:03:21.560 --> 00:03:23.759
because oh, I just think it's a great We're treated
73
00:03:23.800 --> 00:03:26.599
like kings here. It's a great, great event, a great
74
00:03:26.599 --> 00:03:29.479
way to start awesome. Yeah, He's definitely it's number one.
75
00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:32.560
If we come back, though, I want a whole wing
76
00:03:32.680 --> 00:03:34.400
like the Goo Goo dolls have you know?
77
00:03:34.639 --> 00:03:35.599
Yeah, that ain't cool.
78
00:03:35.759 --> 00:03:37.840
I need room to kick out my legs a little bit.
79
00:03:37.960 --> 00:03:38.479
There you go.
80
00:03:39.479 --> 00:03:41.680
Now if the end he hears that, he'll probably put
81
00:03:41.719 --> 00:03:46.479
you like in the little golf cart.
82
00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:47.400
That broom closet. Okay, we'll be the Clauset act.
83
00:03:47.520 --> 00:03:49.319
There you go. Okay.
84
00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:52.479
So I have to ask, do you play at Gibson?
85
00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:55.599
I do, okay, because that would be really screwed up
86
00:03:55.639 --> 00:03:57.120
if you didn't.
87
00:03:57.240 --> 00:03:59.520
Playing a Bard and wearing a Gibson hat. Yeah.
88
00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:02.199
Actually, I was trying to side on my outfit for
89
00:04:02.199 --> 00:04:05.199
today because today's Sunday. It's the Camo theme. So I
90
00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:07.479
got a Camo shirt. I tried to get some shoes
91
00:04:07.479 --> 00:04:11.039
to match the green. But I had got this hat
92
00:04:11.080 --> 00:04:13.919
at the Guitar Center. And I normally I love hats
93
00:04:13.919 --> 00:04:16.399
because I'm going bold, I guess, But night I saw
94
00:04:16.439 --> 00:04:18.319
the hat and I was like, oh, dude, I play
95
00:04:18.319 --> 00:04:20.959
at Gibson. I have a remake of an original Advanced
96
00:04:21.000 --> 00:04:25.319
Jumbo from nineteen thirty five play and I thought, how
97
00:04:25.399 --> 00:04:27.199
more suiting than is to wear that hat and play
98
00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:29.360
that guitar on this stage?
99
00:04:29.360 --> 00:04:30.639
Today is going to be you know.
100
00:04:30.600 --> 00:04:34.160
What a do you pick Gibson as your guitar of choice.
101
00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:37.480
It's about the sound of this particular instrument. I'd acquired
102
00:04:37.480 --> 00:04:41.199
the instrument when I was about sixteen seventeen years old.
103
00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:43.120
I was at We used to have a music shop
104
00:04:43.120 --> 00:04:46.560
here in Louisville called First Quality Music Supplies, and they
105
00:04:46.600 --> 00:04:48.920
catered to a lot of the banjo They made banjos
106
00:04:48.920 --> 00:04:52.079
for Gibson in fact, and actually Cody plays one of
107
00:04:52.120 --> 00:04:55.879
their promo models before they started making their line. Nice
108
00:04:55.959 --> 00:04:59.000
and a friend of mine, he believed in me, and
109
00:04:59.040 --> 00:05:01.519
he I went in there actually just to look at
110
00:05:01.560 --> 00:05:04.079
instruments and hang out like musicians, do you know, just
111
00:05:04.439 --> 00:05:06.279
in all of all the cool stuff on the wall,
112
00:05:07.079 --> 00:05:09.879
and I was I had picked up this blonde Gibson
113
00:05:10.040 --> 00:05:11.920
and it was really cool because it had the bass
114
00:05:11.959 --> 00:05:15.560
like a Martin. And then my friend, we weren't really
115
00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:18.199
friends at the time, but he saw something in me
116
00:05:18.240 --> 00:05:20.360
and he was like, hey, real quick, stay right here.
117
00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:21.160
Came back.
118
00:05:21.199 --> 00:05:23.040
He brought me this other Gibson, the one I have,
119
00:05:23.160 --> 00:05:26.279
and he's like yours. After four hours of messing with
120
00:05:26.319 --> 00:05:28.839
it and like comparing them, he was like, which one
121
00:05:28.879 --> 00:05:29.399
would you buy?
122
00:05:29.439 --> 00:05:30.959
I was like, if I was a buy one. I'd
123
00:05:30.959 --> 00:05:33.240
buy this Sunburst one and he was like, what's yours.
124
00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:33.839
Wow.
125
00:05:33.879 --> 00:05:36.160
I didn't know what to say. And to this day
126
00:05:36.199 --> 00:05:38.160
I still own that guitar. It's the best guitar I've
127
00:05:38.160 --> 00:05:40.600
ever owned. The reason I like it because it has
128
00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:44.680
two lives, like it has two personalities. It can sound
129
00:05:44.720 --> 00:05:46.800
like a Martin or better, and it can sound like
130
00:05:46.839 --> 00:05:47.360
a Gibson.
131
00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:48.199
Wow, that's cool.
132
00:05:48.279 --> 00:05:52.120
Meets both worlds, and so that that moment in time
133
00:05:52.240 --> 00:05:55.399
is probably why you're here today, because it's part of it.
134
00:05:55.439 --> 00:05:59.120
You might not have continued playing guitar had that not happened.
135
00:05:59.360 --> 00:06:02.399
I probably would continued, but not serious.
136
00:06:02.839 --> 00:06:05.160
Yeah, if it wasn't for someone believing in me the
137
00:06:05.199 --> 00:06:08.000
way he did, and other folks as well. I can't
138
00:06:08.199 --> 00:06:10.839
name everybody, but that kind of love and support you
139
00:06:10.839 --> 00:06:14.399
don't come across every day. Yeah, and sometimes it's a
140
00:06:14.399 --> 00:06:16.439
little bit hard to process. It took me a while
141
00:06:16.480 --> 00:06:18.519
to really process that because I didn't know what he
142
00:06:18.519 --> 00:06:21.120
had given me. And I could tell you a long
143
00:06:21.120 --> 00:06:23.160
story about the wild goose chases. I've been on for
144
00:06:23.319 --> 00:06:26.000
guitars and stuff since then, and I always come back
145
00:06:26.040 --> 00:06:27.920
to that and find new love every time I pick
146
00:06:27.959 --> 00:06:30.160
it up. I'm like, oh my god, this guitar is badass.
147
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:32.279
It's like when you go buy new shoes, you want
148
00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:33.480
to go put your old shoes back.
149
00:06:33.639 --> 00:06:34.800
That's right, they're fitted for you.
150
00:06:35.000 --> 00:06:35.759
Yeah, exactly.
151
00:06:36.120 --> 00:06:38.639
I want to hear everybody else's story of what brought
152
00:06:38.680 --> 00:06:41.079
you to this moment time today.
153
00:06:41.639 --> 00:06:43.600
Just a quick thing about this whole band is we're
154
00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:47.199
all bluegrass guys. Me Matt Cody here, we're all right
155
00:06:47.240 --> 00:06:50.959
out of traditional bluegrass backports picking. This guy, however, is
156
00:06:51.000 --> 00:06:53.879
a rock guy, plays drums and all that good stuff.
157
00:06:53.879 --> 00:06:55.519
So we'll let him go first and tell you all
158
00:06:55.519 --> 00:06:56.000
about that.
159
00:06:56.480 --> 00:06:59.759
It's really a great opportunity for me to be entangled,
160
00:07:00.079 --> 00:07:00.879
basically intertwined.
161
00:07:00.959 --> 00:07:02.000
These guys came to me.
162
00:07:02.199 --> 00:07:04.240
Matt came to me a long time ago and when
163
00:07:04.240 --> 00:07:06.399
he was a youngster and we recorded his daddy, his
164
00:07:06.439 --> 00:07:10.160
granddad's band. I think me be infused.
165
00:07:09.600 --> 00:07:10.279
With these guys.
166
00:07:10.360 --> 00:07:12.959
It's a good mix because we've got a little bit
167
00:07:12.959 --> 00:07:15.279
of we've got a little bit of power on the
168
00:07:15.279 --> 00:07:18.439
bottom end, but it's just a unique blend of appellation
169
00:07:18.600 --> 00:07:19.399
and pop.
170
00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:21.560
And I love it and it really works.
171
00:07:21.720 --> 00:07:24.600
What I like is the word blend, because nowadays there's
172
00:07:24.800 --> 00:07:28.000
so many bands, so many artists, that the only way
173
00:07:28.040 --> 00:07:30.319
you really stick out is if there is a blend,
174
00:07:30.439 --> 00:07:32.319
Otherwise everybody's doing the same thing.
175
00:07:32.600 --> 00:07:35.240
There's a whole world of material that he could cover.
176
00:07:35.759 --> 00:07:39.519
But with us starting to enter into the songwriting, that's
177
00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:42.279
real exciting. I'm real, real excited to see what the
178
00:07:42.279 --> 00:07:44.480
next year or two it's going to hold for us,
179
00:07:45.040 --> 00:07:46.839
nice big things. I'm optimistic.
180
00:07:47.720 --> 00:07:49.800
This would have been a family thing for me. I
181
00:07:49.800 --> 00:07:53.560
started around ten years old with my dad and my
182
00:07:53.639 --> 00:07:56.399
sisters started playing music along with my brother. They all
183
00:07:56.439 --> 00:07:59.720
played guitar and all that good stuff. And I took
184
00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:02.759
one lesson and I don't know what it was, but
185
00:08:02.879 --> 00:08:04.920
it was really overwhelming. So I said I don't want
186
00:08:04.920 --> 00:08:06.439
to do it. And I didn't do it for another year,
187
00:08:06.480 --> 00:08:08.399
and then I saw them growing and getting better, and
188
00:08:08.399 --> 00:08:10.879
I'm like, I'd like to do it again. And my
189
00:08:10.959 --> 00:08:12.959
dad said, well, if you're gonna do it, you're gonna
190
00:08:13.000 --> 00:08:16.439
do it, and you're gonna practice, And by god, I
191
00:08:16.480 --> 00:08:19.680
practiced every day until I was about eighteen, when I
192
00:08:19.720 --> 00:08:21.399
took a couple of years off because I didn't have
193
00:08:21.439 --> 00:08:24.120
to practice anymore. But yeah, I mean that that was
194
00:08:24.160 --> 00:08:26.199
pretty much my journey was all about me and dad
195
00:08:26.240 --> 00:08:28.120
and going to good festival.
196
00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:32.399
Good for you and good for dad. Because here's my experience.
197
00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:37.080
I played guitar, and I was trying to experiment with
198
00:08:37.240 --> 00:08:40.399
see what sounds I could make, the scales. I don't
199
00:08:40.399 --> 00:08:43.360
want to do these fucking scales. Okay, that's boring and
200
00:08:43.440 --> 00:08:47.159
shit teacher wanted me to do scales like eight hours
201
00:08:47.200 --> 00:08:51.440
a day. And my dad said, you should probably not
202
00:08:51.559 --> 00:08:53.159
play guitar because you suck.
203
00:08:56.000 --> 00:08:59.120
So now I'm talking to you, talk.
204
00:08:59.000 --> 00:08:59.960
The guitar players.
205
00:09:00.960 --> 00:09:03.360
Cool, maybe we can help fix it.
206
00:09:03.799 --> 00:09:04.600
Yeah, there you go.
207
00:09:04.919 --> 00:09:05.200
Yeah.
208
00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:07.759
So I started playing when I was about twelve years old.
209
00:09:07.799 --> 00:09:10.799
My grandpa he grew up playing guitar and bluegrass music,
210
00:09:10.840 --> 00:09:13.559
and I got started with that and he eventually I
211
00:09:13.559 --> 00:09:16.200
started playing banjo and going around jam sessions. Heck, I've
212
00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:18.320
been playing with Matt here since I was been thirteen
213
00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:21.639
years old, had little jam sessions across the state and
214
00:09:21.960 --> 00:09:24.840
just all the time playing music, and like I got
215
00:09:24.840 --> 00:09:27.840
the bug instantly, and like knew that this is what
216
00:09:27.879 --> 00:09:29.039
I was going to do for the rest of my
217
00:09:29.080 --> 00:09:32.559
life at that moment. And then I ended up going
218
00:09:32.559 --> 00:09:35.240
to college to Morehead State, and I was one of
219
00:09:35.279 --> 00:09:37.759
the first out of there with the traditional music degree.
220
00:09:37.879 --> 00:09:39.840
And I like to say, I got a ba and banjo.
221
00:09:40.039 --> 00:09:42.600
You know, I love it. You're a bab.
222
00:09:42.840 --> 00:09:44.639
Yeah, there you got outwards.
223
00:09:45.039 --> 00:09:47.519
Yeah. And you know what, I'm.
224
00:09:47.399 --> 00:09:51.320
Always curious too. I love the banjo. Actually, right down
225
00:09:51.360 --> 00:09:54.360
the street from where I live, there's this park and
226
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:57.879
they have bluegrass, like every Sunday live bluegrass.
227
00:09:57.960 --> 00:09:58.679
I think it's cool.
228
00:09:58.720 --> 00:10:02.519
Tell and it's not even normally my jam of what
229
00:10:02.679 --> 00:10:04.360
I might go to music.
230
00:10:04.879 --> 00:10:05.480
I do dig it.
231
00:10:05.639 --> 00:10:08.840
I always wonder like, what makes somebody pick the banjo
232
00:10:08.960 --> 00:10:09.639
over the guitar?
233
00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:10.720
Bad decisions.
234
00:10:10.879 --> 00:10:14.399
There's a defect teen pool, you see. It's all that is.
235
00:10:15.000 --> 00:10:15.480
It's not.
236
00:10:17.600 --> 00:10:19.480
How I got into it was my grandpa did a
237
00:10:19.519 --> 00:10:22.559
lot of fingerstyle guitar, and I started taking guitar lessons
238
00:10:22.559 --> 00:10:25.080
from a guy that mainly plays banjo, and he was like,
239
00:10:25.320 --> 00:10:27.799
you need to be playing banjo. And then that's where
240
00:10:28.039 --> 00:10:29.440
that's it just started.
241
00:10:29.120 --> 00:10:29.559
That with that.
242
00:10:29.840 --> 00:10:30.759
So nice.
1
00:00:04.360 --> 00:00:05.639
2
00:00:06.120 --> 00:00:12.720
3
00:00:22.640 --> 00:00:24.920
4
00:00:24.920 --> 00:00:25.679
5
00:00:25.879 --> 00:00:28.559
6
00:00:29.079 --> 00:00:29.839
7
00:00:29.879 --> 00:00:31.839
8
00:00:31.879 --> 00:00:34.479
9
00:00:34.479 --> 00:00:36.320
10
00:00:36.359 --> 00:00:39.719
11
00:00:39.840 --> 00:00:43.439
12
00:00:43.479 --> 00:00:44.159
13
00:00:44.520 --> 00:00:46.439
14
00:00:46.479 --> 00:00:48.240
15
00:00:48.159 --> 00:00:50.679
16
00:00:50.679 --> 00:00:51.359
17
00:00:52.200 --> 00:00:54.600
18
00:00:54.640 --> 00:00:57.320
19
00:00:57.359 --> 00:01:03.719
20
00:01:03.719 --> 00:01:05.840
21
00:01:05.879 --> 00:01:07.159
22
00:01:08.560 --> 00:01:12.439
23
00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:16.359
24
00:01:16.480 --> 00:01:20.359
25
00:01:22.439 --> 00:01:27.319
26
00:01:27.400 --> 00:01:29.719
27
00:01:29.840 --> 00:01:29.920

00:01:43.719 --> 00:01:45.519
