    Bella Lam: “Boot First,” Dolly Parton & Chasing Her Country Music Dream | Skip Happens

    Send us Fan Mail Meet rising country artist Bella Lam as she joins Skip Clark on the Skip Happens Podcast for a fun, honest and revealing conversation about her new single “Boot First,” her journey into country music, songwriting, performing and the determination it takes to chase a dream. Bella opens up about overcoming challenges early in life, finding confidence through music and turning her own experiences into songs. She shares the story behind “Boot First,” what she learned from her very first co-write, performing at Nashville's legendary Bluebird Cafe, and why songwriting can sometimes be easier than saying exactly how she feels. Bella also reflects on the influence of Dolly Parton, calling Dolly a blueprint for the way she approaches her music and career. She talks about her experience as an Asian American artist in country music, her rock influences, her love of artists ranging from Carrie Underwood and Miranda Lambert to Taylor Swift, and the country career she's building one show at a time. Plus — approximately 30 pairs of boots, a “Hannah Montana closet,” horror video games, the “Bella Fellas,” an upcoming driving test and plenty of moments that prove you never quite know what's going to happen on Skip Happens. 🎵 Check out Bella Lam – “Boot First” wherever you stream music and follow Bella for new music, shows and what's coming next. 🎙️ Skip Happens Podcast Hosted by Skip Clark On air.

    Jaclyn Kenyon & Justin Love on SCARS, Nashville & “I Wanna” | Skip Happens

    Send us Fan Mail Jaclyn Kenyon and Justin Love join Skip Clark on the Skip Happens Podcast for a revealing conversation about Nashville, SCARS, second chances and their new country-rock duet, “I Wanna (The Duet).” Jaclyn opens up about starting music at a young age, performing alongside major names including Nickelback, winning the TV competition Banded, and then facing a devastating period when her music career suddenly went silent and she couldn't release new music. She also shares how that experience helped lead to SCARS — music with a deeper purpose — and the unforgettable moment when a grieving fan told Jaclyn she needed one of her songs after losing her husband. Justin Love joins the conversation to talk about songwriting, Nashville's highly competitive music scene, faith, perseverance, the realities of being an independent artist and the story behind “I Wanna (The Duet).” It's a conversation about finding your sound, refusing to fit into somebody else's box, believing in what you're creating and turning the scars along the way into something meaningful. 🎙️ Hosted by Skip Clark 🎧 Skip Happens Podcast Listen for conversations with country artists, independent musicians, Nashville songwriters and people with stories worth hearing.
