104- John Rich Redneck Riviera Whiskey (Nick)
Manage episode 356491868 series 2724103
90’s country made a positive mark on me. I loved the stories they told, the sense of pride they carried, and the twangy stringed instruments. Of course Country wasn’t always like this. Country music pioneers, for better or worse, created new sounds and new tones by mixing genres in order to infiltrate and widen their market. People like Conway Twitty & Johnny Cash paved a way for 90’s country artists like Billy Ray Cyrus, The Dixie Chicks, and Sawyer Brown. People of the early 2000’s like Keith Urban, Rascal Flatts, and Big & Rich paved a way for today’s artists like Florida Georgia Line, Morgan Wallen, and Jason Alden. And that brings me to today’s topic of John Rich of Big & Rich. A little on his career, a little on his extracurriculars, and a lot on his whiskey “Redneck Riviera”.
But Where did John Rich get his start? Has he ever been in a full band? What is Texasse? Is his whiskey any good? Does it Mix well? Can you class up a Redneck Riviera? What does Proof mean? And is this the American version of a Canadian whiskey?
Well we will discuss this, and more on this group therapy session with Nick, on the Tweed Couch
