The American Idol Circus with Brayden King
We're back with another episode of On The Porch with Front Porch Music. This week we had a chat with Brayden King.
He's a relative newcomer to the country music scene, but the last few months have been an absolute whirlwind for him. He joined us on the heels of competing on the biggest music competition shows - American Idol.
He made it to the top 55 of the competition and shared what that experience was like. We spent a lot of time talking about American Idol and the magic of everything you don't see behind the scenes.
Brayden joined us for a chat while he was taking a well deserved vacation. He was really forthcoming about what his experience as an artist has been like. From joining the music scene as a solo artist a couple years ago, to getting a DM from an American Idol casting director.
He has a new song out “Bad Night To Be A Beer” and it's a great new song that you're going to want to save to your playlists. He is set to make a splash on the scene and we can't wait to see where his career takes him.
Enjoy our chat with Brayden King!

Are You Famous In Germany? With Mark Ledlin
Mark Ledlin is an athlete and an artist and he’s impeccable at both.
Starting his music career with an audition for The Voice Germany, Ledlin has now been named as one of the eight semi-finalists for SiriusXM’s 2023 Top of the Country contest in partnership with the CCMA. He was also one of our Artists to Watch in 2023.
From his missing tooth to breaking into the country music scene through TikTok, we had a lot to talk to Mark about!
RELATED: Have a listen to his debut single "Drink About Me" ...
We had Mark On The Porch to chat about these things, along with what it’s like growing up with sisters, how he manages creating music from Germany, and Boots and Hearts. If you don’t remember the Boots and Hearts takeover, he did the hot girl walk.
RELATED: He joined us after his performance at the Boots & Hearts Emerging Artist Showcase ...
We also ran through to talk about how he feels about playing at Sunfest Music Festival. But as a hockey player and a musician he’s been pretty busy, so we asked what he does to simply wind down and be in the moment!

Big Words, Big Dreams and Trying Weird Food Combos with Teigen Gayse
Teigen Gayse is British Columbia-based singer-songwriter who splashed onto the scene with her single “I Don’t Wanna Fall In Love Anymore” back in 2021.

If you follow Teigen on Instagram, you may have seen her taste-testing odd food combos. On this week’s episode of the podcast, we tried not one, but two different food combinations with Teigen. Let’s just say the trusty peanut butter and pickles … is really not as bad as you think it could be.
We also talked with Teigen about her new single, “If You Show Me Yours”, her background in audio recording production, and the festivals she’s performing at this summer. We also may have talked about her dog Billie Jean and how she went viral on TikTok.

Taylor Swift, Daisy Jones, and Hailey Benedict: The REAL Trifecta, with Hailey Benedict
Hailey Benedict is celebrating three CMAB Award wins just this past weekend along with successfully hosting the 2023 CMAB Awards show alongside Jojo Mason.
In March, Hailey was named one of the eight semi-finalists for the 2023 Top of the Country contest presented by SiriusXM in partnership with the CCMA. She also just recently arrived home from her first Canada-wide tour supporting Aaron Goodvin.
It’s safe to say 2023 is off to a hot start for Hailey Benedict, which also means, we had lots to catch up on!
We had Hailey On The Porch to chat about all of these things, along with her TikTok endeavors (have you seen her Thunderstruck challenge), being accepted into both Belmont and Berklee universities, and deciding to pursue music full time. We talked about Taylor Swift; a staple in Hailey’s music collection and lifestyle really.
See her Hannah Montana guitar that we talked about.
We also made sure to recap Daisey Jones and the Six (with NO spoilers if you’re just starting to watch). Logan hasn’t even started.

The Thing About Moving To Nashville, with Alee
Alee first popped onto the country music scene with singles like “Only The Strong Survive”, “Don’t Say You Love Me”, and “Moonshine”. Earning multiple CCMA and CMAB nominations, along with multiple Top 20 singles are just some of the highlights of Alee’s career.
We sat down with Alee to recap some of her finest moments, including door-knocking on radio programmer’s doors with her CDs (teaching us the fine line between persistence and harassment), working construction, and finally deciding to make the move to Nashville.
Alee is a classically trained pianist who didn’t pick up the guitar until a little later. She talked about songwriting on both instruments and finding her home at the piano.
Alee’s newest single “Love Songs” has an interesting story behind its inspiration. She told the story for TikTok of how she was playing “When You Say Nothing At All” and mid-song a woman interrupted and said she would pay her to stop playing.
Why did she do that?
You’ll have to tune into the episode where she tells us the full story.
Keep up to date with all things Alee on social media. Follow her on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, and TikTok.
