Manage episode 398771348 series 3470835
Every tattoo has a story, and in our latest Skip Happens episode, we peel back the layers of ink with the return of the ever-charismatic Rob Fitzgerald. As we swap tales about the art on our bodies, the profound meanings they hold, and the occasional regret, we also uncover the rich tapestry of Rob's world. From discussing the far-reaching effects of Canadian wildfires to delving into how his dual love for firefighting and music entwines, this conversation is a journey through the heart of a man who lives and breathes his passions.
Strap in for a musical odyssey as he takes you through the birth of his newest track, "Drunk on You." It all started with a simple guitar riff that blossomed into a soulful serenade, a tribute to the heady intoxication of love. We'll let you in on the magic that happens when Nashville's finest get their hands on a song and give you an earful of the bluesy, country vibes that we Canadians cherish. Whether you're a vinyl enthusiast or a digital devotee, this episode spins a tale of music's tactile pleasures and the creative force behind it.
In the comforting glow of a record player's light, we wind down our session with a nod to the supportive cast behind every artist. From discussing the vital role of a spouse in a creative's life to striking the delicate balance between emergency services and strumming on a guitar, the depth of our stories harmonizes with the soul of country music. We also reveal the personal highs and lows from Nashville's bustling scene to the intimate, shared experiences of family and loss. Join us for a heartfelt rendezvous that's as rich in narrative as the melodies we live by.
