He's very transparent, he's very honest. He's very 15 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 1: eager to help the next generation break the stronghold that 16 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 1: mental illness mental health issues have had on so many 17 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 1: of us. David Nail is a multi platinum singer songwriter 18 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: from Kennett in the boot heel of Missouri. He's been 19 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:24,959 Speaker 1: on the country music scene for a number of years. 20 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: He's had Grammy nominations, ACM nominations, He's had over a 21 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 1: billion billion with a B streams.

After building a respected 24 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 1: career in Nashville, David split with his longtime record company 25 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: about a decade ago so that he could address his 26 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: mental health issues and embrace a more independent chapter that 27 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 1: prioritized honesty over expectations. Got to dig into that when 28 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: we get to talk to him. Recent projects such as 29 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:15,359 Speaker 1: Oh Mother, the boot Heel releases, and twenty twenty three's 30 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 1: Best of Me reflect a more organic, reflective approach to 31 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 1: his music, much more organic than his earlier works, with 32 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:27,399 Speaker 1: songs centered on family memories, mental health, and the hard 33 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: earned perspective that comes with experience. Now he is entering 34 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 1: a powerful new chapter with this album we're going to 35 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:39,359 Speaker 1: talk about today. It's called Flowers, his first full length 36 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 1: album after multiple EP releases and some singles drops. The 37 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 1: title and the cover art, even the handwriting for the title, 38 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 1: are all from his mom, Donna. The album is a 39 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: result of a long collaboration with several writers, one of 40 00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: them being Laurie McKenna ur. He wrote Humble and Kind. 41 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 1: You might remember that that Tim McGraw recorded Laurie contributed 42 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 1: her writing skills to many songs on this new album. Flowers. 43 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: Flowers is ten tracks in all, each one telling an 44 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: honest and emotional story. They're little mini movies when you 45 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:21,639 Speaker 1: listen to them. When I listen to them, I can 46 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: picture the whole story playing out. That's what David is 47 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 1: all about these days. No more chasing trends, just vulnerability 48 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 1: and authenticity for music that resonates on a much deeper level. 49 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 1: The Crown and Fare thee Well were the first singles 50 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 1: to drop, and She Knows was just recently released.
