Summary
On this episode of the BobbyCast, Bobby sits down with one of his closest friends, singer/songwriter, Brett Eldredge. Brett and Bobby open things up by talking about his anxiety when performing and being on stage. Brett talks about the period in his career when he dealt with dysphonia, which is an obsession with how he was projecting his voice, and he had trouble going from song to song. The guys also talked about the reason Brett doesn't do as many live shows these days, the origin story of his Christmas show 'Glow' and how it became a tradition.
