In Episode 15 of the Savannah Jams Podcast, we sit down with Bak Bond, one of Savannah’s fastest-rising country artists and one of the hardest-working new faces on the local scene. In just over a year, Bak has gone from finding his footing to hosting his own Bondfire Sessions showcases, playing high-profile community events, and setting his sights on a Nashville talent showcase. We talk about his unexpected transition from hip-hop to country, why storytelling pulled him in, how his eclectic style shapes his performances, and what it takes to build momentum from the ground up with a fully committed band behind you.
