Carly and I were thrilled to have Josh Crutchmer back on the show to talk about his 3rd and latest book, Red Dirt Unplugged.

Along with working a day job for a little ol publication called the New York Times, native Okie and Red Dirt Music Fan, Josh Crutchmer, is a journalist who’s played a significant role in getting recognition for the artists and the music we all dig for years now.

For example, Josh just spent an entire year basically embedded with Wyatt Flores as he rides a very hot streak into the fall.  He was in the studio with him as he recorded his latest album.

Josh has also been spending a lot of time with The Great Divide as they capped their comeback this year with some Texas Music honors as well as their Opry debut in July and their Ryman debut (opening for Wyatt) coming in December!

Over the past year, Josh has also had his articles published in Rolling stone featuring artists like Flatland Calvary, Wade Bowen, Dylan Gossett, Koe Wetzel, American Aquarium, Cody Canada, Reckless Kelly, Muscadine Bloodline, Dasha, Shane Smith, Old 97s and Charles Wesley Godwin.

So, let’s just say Josh has his pulse on the scene and the exciting time we’re all experiencing in our favorite genre of original music.  We were thrilled to have him on the show and we can’t recommend his book highly enough!
