Korby speaks with artist, songwriter and guitar player Boo Ray about the realities of maintaining a heavy tour schedule in a post-covid landscape, and how ‘the polaroid of the thing is sometimes more interesting than the thing itself.”

A much-loved figure of the East Nashville Scene, Boo’s band gets out and plays often. We talk about the spiritual analogue of the artist’s life, viewing it more as a calling than a dream, and we discuss the challenges Boo’s faced in terms of staying sober in a boozy business. Lastly, Boo plays a couple songs live in our studio, with and without Korby.

Songs:
Six Weeks in a Motel
4 Letters in a Heart

Boo Ray - Vocals, Guitar
Korby Lenker - Guitar, Harmonies
