Chris Scott and Mike Hennel of The Summit discuss the following: how The Summit came to fruition in 2015 ("it stemmed from a conversation we had in Gatlinburg"); their special friendship with ZZ Top's Billy Gibbons and the late Dusty Hill; heart-warming moments while performing in Paducah, Kentucky ("just the culture of the town, the honor of being there, and the brotherhood we felt"); their "natural and organic" music recording experience with Will Turpin of Collective Soul; writing songs on serious and topical subjects such as drug addiction and mass shootings ("this is not a political statement...I feel for the parents who have lost children"); and the band's plans, including recording and touring. The podcast interview also includes the song "Hit Me Up." [...]
