CJ Boggs
Today we're talking with CJ Boggs, an amazing audio engineer who has worked with some of the biggest names in the business (and we were lucky enough to get him to work on a few of our songs!) He has done so many different things over the years, from touring as a keyboard player to touring internationally as an engineer. We cover lots of ground - especially interesting to us was hearing what it was like to tour regionally out of Nashville (from the experience of his daughter Nicole Boggs).

Donnie Winters
We first met Donnie when he was hosting the famous Douglas Corner Cafe open mic in Nashville - and he's one of the reasons we decided to move here. Donnie had his first cut when he was only a freshman in high school! He comes from a long line of musicians and he's been on the grand old opry stage with Marty Robbins, and has opened for Charlie Daniels, Marshall Tucker, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and the Allman's with the Winters Brothers Band! We talk about what it means to be a professional and why relationships are so important.
