Show Notes
Joe Nichols joins Spout to talk about the long road behind his country career, the traditional sound he never abandoned, and why country music may finally be circling back to its roots.
Joe reflects on his new music, including “Fighting the Good Fight,” “Goodbyes Are Hard to Listen To,” and the upcoming “High Notes,” while sharing why he is taking his time building a full album instead of rushing the process.
He also looks back on the unexpected rise of “Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off,” the chart drama behind “Brokenheartsville,” hearing other artists cover his songs, and why connecting with fans now means more to him than chasing another number one.
Plus, Joe opens up about his Arkansas roots, his love for trout fishing in the Ozarks, his work with Home Run for Hope, and how his perspective has shifted from competing with other artists to rooting for them. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
