In a world where country, blues, and rock collide, few voices carry the raw honesty of Spud Vincent—the singer-songwriter alter ego of Sam Murphy. A former Australian Navy serviceman, Vincent once lived by discipline, structure, and the unyielding push to bury what hurt. But as he reveals in this conversation with host Jacob Roads, discipline can only take you so far.At the heart of this episode is “Man Up”, Vincent’s latest single and a gut-punch of a track that flips the old cliché on its head. Written as a lifeline for men wrestling with mental health, the song is equal parts confession and call to arms—urging self-acceptance over suppression, and vulnerability over silence.Vincent opens up about his journey from the Navy to the stage, how years of resilience gave way to self-reflection, and why songwriting has become his truest weapon. With Roads not only hosting but also producing his music, this is more than just an interview—it’s the unveiling of an artist finding his sound, his story, and his freedom.This is the sound of a man who’s walked through fire, now singing for those still stuck in the smoke.🔗 Listen now, share it forward, and don’t miss the anthem redefining what it really means to man up.
