TRANSCRIPT
The first Aldean single that I did was my first number one. That was the first time something I did was on the radio.
I’ve had a couple pinch myself moments. The first one was when I had a mix. It was my very first sink mix that ever landed, and it was a trailer of this. Dragon Age: Inquisitions, Xbox video game. That was the first where it was like, wow, something that I did is actually gonna be seen by more than just like my mom and family or something, you know?
So, so that was pretty cool. Or if you’re in an Uber and then country music’s on the, on the radio, it’s like, That’s when I did. That’s when I did. That’s pretty cool. Anytime like that, that, that’s a pinch myself moment.
My wife’s in artist management and she works with a band called Nightly. We send videos at the speaker, like this Nightly song is playing right now and that’s always a cool thing.
