Singer-songwriter Brice Long met with brothers and podcast hosts Dan and Reid Isbell on the latest episode of God’s Country, discussing everything from church hymns, to moving to Nashville, to embarrassing stories and everything in between.
The Isbell brothers note in their God’s Country episode description that Long has had cuts by George Strait, Garth Brooks, Jon Pardi and other heavy-hitters in the country music genre. Long is also credited with penning "Nothin' On But The Radio" by Gary Allan, "Like A Cowboy" by Randy Houser and Pardi’s ”Heartache on the Dance Floor," to name a few. Brice, born in Kentucky, also delves into the story of “how his dad forced him to chase the ‘neon rainbow’ to Nashville,” and Reid “shares an embarrassing story that's guaranteed to have you face palming on his behalf.”
Dan and Reid — who have written music for Luke Combs, Miranda Lambert, Scotty McCreery, Jon Pardi, Lainey Wilson and others — started their weekly podcast this year. Guests appearing on the show so far include HARDY, Dustin Lynch, Colbie Caillat and others.
“One of our favorite things about country music has always been how intertwined it is with the outdoors,” Dan and Reid Isbell said in a statement when God’s Country launched. They hope to “bring the outdoor enthusiast or country music lover an up close and personal look into the minds of some of the best songwriters and artists of the genre — a place where they can be honest about struggles, relationships, their connection to the outdoors, the music business, family, whatever they feel comfortable talking about. We can’t wait to see where this partnership will lead and who this podcast will reach.”
