Country Music Has Bills to Pay! | Riley Kerns of Low Water
Country music has bills to pay and Riley Kerns knows all about it!
Drummer, singer and all-round musical Swiss Army knife for Low Water, Riley joins Cam to talk about life behind the kit and everything it takes to keep the music going when the stage lights go out.
From reggae bands and painting jobs to sweaty tour vans, onstage mishaps and the art of keeping a band together, this one's a look at the less glamorous side of chasing the honky-tonk dream.
Plus, 20 new songs in six months? Sounds like Low Water have something brewing.
