Summary

Terri Clark drops by Get Real with Caroline Hobby to reflect on her 20+ year career in country music. She discusses getting disqualified from one of her very first talent shows in Canada that would’ve resulted in a record deal and changed the entire trajectory of her career. After that loss, she and her mom packed up the car and drove down to Nashville from Canada. Terri shares about her early days living in Nashville alone as a teenager without a green card or a car and some very sketchy situations she found herself in. She somehow found herself a job singing at Tootsie’s for $15 dollars a day. After going on to reach massive success, Terri shares about the pressures in the industry to remain relevant and trying not to play the comparison game. Caroline and Terri connect on Terri’s close relationship with her mom and tragically losing her to cancer. They also discuss Terri having Toby Keith as a mentor early in her career, how she has processed his passing and so much more.
