E495 - Will Moseley - From Hazlehurst to the American Idol Stage - DEMERBOX Artist of The Month

Chad sits down with Will Moseley, Georgia native and runner-up from American Idol Season 22, for a conversation that dives into real country music grit. Will didn’t grow up chasing fame; he dreamt of being a football player. After sustaining a few substantial injuries, he left football after college, picked up a guitar, and discovered something deeper in writing songs. When he played his song “Gone for Good,” he stunned the American Idol judges and won the hearts of Americans instantly. He earned a golden ticket to Hollywood, and stuck with it all the way to the finale—earning major praise from Luke Bryan, Katy Perry, and Lionel Richie. Chad and Will touch on what it’s like to go from Hazlehurst fields to national stages, to write songs that feel honest, and what it takes to make it these days. If you’ve heard “Everything But Me” or “It’s You,” this one gives you the man behind those songs. If Will’s new to your playlist, you’re still about to feel why his sound is turning heads, and you need to check him out! As expected from our Demerbox Artist of the Month Series, this one is real; Real stories, real voice, real country.
