Chad sits down with John Rich, this month’s DemerBox Artist of the Month, for a deep conversation about the music business, creative freedom, and the fine line between success and significance. John talks about the birth of the Music Mafia, the rise of Big & Rich and Gretchen Wilson, and how Nashville’s sound and politics have shifted over the years. He talks about staying authentic, honoring the flag, and writing songs that mean something, even when they ruffle feathers.
We love how John Rich is unapologetically himself. He's outspoken, sharp, funny, and fearless.
If you believe real country music still needs a backbone, this one’s for you.

E506 - The Heartbeat of Real Country - Brent Cobb and The Fixin's - DEMERBOX Artist of The Month pt2
Brent Cobb is back for Part Two, and this one’s all about the music. Chad and Brent dig into the craft: songwriting, influences, and details that show why Brent’s one of the best of his generation. There’s even a surprise influence of Brent's that may surprise you!
Brent and Matt play “Shine On Rainy Day” live in the room, and it’s flat-out incredible.
This episode feels less like an interview and more like hanging out on the bus with a band at the top of their game. It's real talk, big laughs, and music that cuts straight to the soul.
If you've never heard Brent sing live, prepare to be a lifelong fan.
