My career in the entertainment industry has enabled me to work with a diverse range of talent.

Through my years of experience, I've

recognized two essential aspects. Industry professionals, whether famous stars, or behind-the-scenes

staff, have fascinating stories to tell. Secondly, audiences are eager to listen to these stories,

which offer a glimpse into their lives and the

evolution of their life stories. This podcast aims to share these narratives, providing information

on how they evolved into their chosen career. We will delve into their journey to stardom,

discuss their struggles and successes, and hear from people who help them achieve their goals.

Get ready for intriguing behind-the-scenes stories and insights into the fascinating world of

entertainment.

Hi, I'm Tony Mantor. Welcome to Almost Live Nashville.

Joining us today is Marcus Humman, a Grammy-winning singer-songwriter whose words and

melodies have shaped the soul of country music for decades. He's chased his dream from the stages of

L.A. to the honky tonks of Music City. In the mid-80s, he traded the West Coast Lights of L.A. to the

stages of Nashville. There, he honed his craft at iconic

spots like the Bluebird Cafe, eventually landing a songwriting deal that launched a career of chart-breaking

songs. He has gifted the world songs that capture love, wanderlust, and the unbreakable human

spirit. He's not just a hitmaker.

He's a multi-instrumentalist, composer, storyteller, scoring films, penning operas, and even

weaving musicals that have graced off-Broadway stages. His journey here in Nashville has been

nothing short of fantastic. So before we dive into

our episode, we'll be right back with an uninterrupted show right after a word from our sponsors.
