    Parker McCollum: New Music, Big Dreams, and the Power of No
    Apr 24 2026
    Country star Parker McCollum joins Tamara Dhia on the Spout Podcast for a backstage conversation from Napa about the music, pressure, and purpose behind his latest chapter. Parker opens up about the deluxe version of his self-titled album, including why “Big Old Fancy House” took multiple attempts before it finally felt right, how “Killing Me” came together almost by accident, and why “Montgomery County” was born alone on a late-night flight home from tour. He also reflects on pushing himself creatively, wanting to feel uncomfortable again, and how his songwriting has changed since songs like “Stone” came from a more self-destructive place. Parker talks about the advice Miranda Lambert gave him to “fall in love with the word no,” the balance between ambition and protecting your life, and what has stayed the same from The Limestone Kid to Gold Chain Cowboy, Never Enough, and now. Plus, Parker shares what fans can expect next: a big summer tour, new music, and the early stages of writing his next album. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

  • The Road to Stagecoach

    The Road to Stagecoach
    Apr 20 2026
    This week on the Spout Podcast, we’re doing something a little different for Stagecoach weekend. In this special bundled episode, we bring together three separate conversations with Josh Ross, Corey Kent, and Willow Avalon — three artists heading into one of country music’s biggest weekends, each with a very different story, sound, and lane right now. Josh Ross talks about the emotion behind “Give Her Hell,” why he’s drawn to songs that hit harder emotionally, and how he moves between stripped-back country, power-ballad energy, and full-scale live intensity. He also opens up about the personal side of his songwriting, the meaning behind sequencing records, and why some of the deepest songs are the ones that stay with people the longest. Corey Kent joins us to talk about the rise of “Empty Words,” how fan reaction helped push the song forward faster, and why trusting instinct still matters in a world obsessed with data. He reflects on the long road from Oklahoma to Nashville to Texas, losing a publishing deal, working at a pavement company during COVID, and building a career that now includes platinum records, a No. 1 song, and a place on major festival stages. It’s a conversation about conviction, resilience, and what happens when the fans finally meet the vision. Then there’s Willow Avalon, who brings one of the most distinct voices in the genre right now. She gets into the story behind “Easy on the Eyes,” the songwriting perspective behind “Cardinal Sin,” and the next chapter following Southern Belle Raisin’ Hell. Her conversation is funny, sharp, thoughtful, and full of the kind of honesty that’s making more and more people pay attention. From viral songs to vintage country influences to building a career in real time, Willow sounds every bit like an artist having a moment on her own terms. Three artists. Three very different journeys. One Stagecoach special. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

    Dermot Kennedy joins Spout to talk about the making of his third studio album, The Weight of the Woods, and the emotional headspace of releasing music that feels both deeply personal and fully lived in.

He also gets into writing in Nashville with Gabe Simon, embracing imperfection in the studio, hearing Taylor Swift praise his songwriting, performing with Zach Bryan, wanting to collaborate with J. Cole, and how fatherhood has added a new perspective to his life.

    Gashi on Rap, Reinvention, Relationship and Reality
    Mar 30 2026
    Gashi joins The Spout Podcast for a conversation that goes way deeper than a typical album interview. Fresh off the release of “Snowed In at the Plaza Hotel” and stepping into the world of The Killer Whales of Gotham, he opens up about the stories, chaos, and mindset behind what he calls the best rap album of the year. But this episode doesn’t stay on the surface for long. Gashi gets candid about immigrant identity, the pressure of fame, dating while being constantly recognized, the state of rap, why streaming changed music culture for the worse, and the anxiety he’s been navigating in real time while promoting this new chapter. Along the way, he’s hilarious, unpredictable, emotional, and brutally honest in a way that makes this conversation feel less like press and more like getting the truth from someone who has nothing to hide. If you want an episode with big opinions, real vulnerability, and plenty of moments you won’t see coming, this is it. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
