    Greg Pratt | From Memphis to Nashville

    Born and raised in Memphis, Tennessee—the home of the blues—Greg Pratt was on a very different path before country music called his name. With just one college credit left and a family legacy in medicine, Greg packed his car, left everything behind, and headed to Nashville with only a few dollars and a dream. In this short but powerful conversation, Greg shares how he taught himself guitar, learned to write songs, and built a baritone voice that now fills some of Nashville’s biggest stages. From working in the back kitchen of a restaurant to becoming one of the most in-demand live performers in town, his journey is pure grit, passion, and heart. We talk about his music, his rise as an independent country artist, his radio success, and what’s ahead as he continues to perform over 200 shows a year and make his mark on today’s country music scene. This is a quick sit-down—but it definitely won’t be the last time you hear from Greg Pratt on Happy Hour with Deb. Support the show Happy Hour with Deb Real Talk. Big Feelings. Country Soul.

    Country Star Walker Montgomery: The Story Behind the Music

    In this episode of Happy Hour with Deb, I sit down with the incredibly talented Walker Montgomery — an artist with one of the strongest pedigrees in country music but a fire to build a legacy that’s all his own. Chosen as an “Artist to Watch” by Country Now, Music Mayhem, The Boot, and more, Walker shares how growing up as the son of John Michael Montgomery and nephew of Eddie Montgomery shaped him… and how carving out his own identity led him all the way to his Grand Ole Opry debut.
