About this episode

This week Reid and Dan host the music row's rowdiest artist, Gavin Adcock, out in God's Country. The episode dives in with all things cattle farming and Dan shares his first and last experience at attempting the trade. Gavin walks through what a day looked like for him growing up raising cattle and how that work ethic has parlayed into his current landscape of touring. The guys pick Gavin's brain on how he maintains releasing music consistently and what his tricks are for remaining viral on TikTok. Gavin shares what a pre-show ritual looks like for him, what it's like managing his rowdy fanbase, and ends the episode with a Gravorite that will bring a tear to a glass eye.
