There are few better ways to get to know someone than rifling through their record bins. On his new Apple Music Country show The Broken Jukebox Society, veteran musician and television personality Nick Hoffman does just that, digging through the eclectic, often surprising musical influences of some of today’s most popular artists. “I'm into what makes artists tick,” Hoffman tells Apple Music. “‘Why'd you write that song, you know? How'd you get to where you're at? The style that you have as an artist, how did you get there?’ I'm fascinated by the journey. So this show is all about nostalgia. It's less about the songs you have on the radio right now and it's more about how you got to them, how you got here.” As Hoffman puts it, The Broken Jukebox Society shines a spotlight on the “soundtracks of artists’ lives, taking the artist down the path of reliving the songs that made them who they are.” Country music is the show’s focus, but Hoffman’s far-reaching conversations with artists like Jordan Davis and Dustin Lynch often reach unexpected territory, too, like the influence of ’90s pop stars or early family memories of listening to classic rock artists like Tom Petty. “It’s super lighthearted, super fun, and there’s no rules,” Hoffman says. “Yeah, we focus on ’80s, ’90s, and 2000s country, for the most part, but there's no rules. It reveals a side of the artist that you wouldn't normally see.” Hoffman is a true multi-hyphenate, playing fiddle for artists like Kenny Chesney and Keith Urban, releasing music as a singer-songwriter and with country band The Farm, hosting the Outdoor Channel television series Nick’s Wild Ride, and so much more. His kaleidoscopic perspective on music and pop culture makes him the perfect tour guide for a meandering trip down musical memory lane. “Everybody has a soundtrack to their lives,” Hoffman says. “What’s yours?”
