buttons66 Posted July 28, 2022 Author Share Posted July 28, 2022 Jim Collins also chimed in this morning ..he was pretty mad.. Jim collins @SexyTractor1234 · 3h Replying to @NEWS_by_Larry Sorry, but “Damn Strait” is not a cover. It’s a completely different song than Granger Smith’s song. The reason I know this, is because I co-wrote the song. You need to fire whoever wrote this inaccurate, and poorly sourced “article”. Do better 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+sinycalone Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 I'm guessing Jim Collins' comments might have had more influence than Sandy and mine's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttons66 Posted July 28, 2022 Author Share Posted July 28, 2022 It was corrected .. One of his favorite songs from “Same Truck” isn’t one he penned, although McCreery is the first artist to record it. The song is “Damn Strait” by Trent Tomlinson and Jim Collins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buttons66 Posted August 2, 2022 Author Share Posted August 2, 2022 (edited) Just absolutely got 1 hint about the new Band Member and it was enough to investigate further..Spence Peppard So Glad I did ............. Married to Misty ..18years . From her FB page Misti Peppard is with Spence Peppard. · Five years ago we took a HUGE step of faith, leaving everything and everyone we knew and loved behind to follow the Lord’s leading to move to Nashville for Spence to pursue his dream of music. It was scary, thrilling and tested our faith on more than one occasion. But God has been so very faithful in the promises He laid out before us. He promised to never leave us or forsake us. He continues to prove that daily as we rely on Him. Since taking that big leap in 2017, Spence has been a part of so many amazing experiences. Each one leading to the next big adventure. 2.5 years ago he stepped into the role of lead guitarist for Jason Crabb. Jason and his team are so amazingly talented and it was such an honor to join alongside his ministry. There are some jobs that become more than just jobs. This was one of those. Jason and his team have become family and we love and appreciate each of them so very much. They have been nothing short of amazing in their love and encouragement for Spence as he moves into his most recent position of lead guitarist for Scotty McCreery. We cannot express our gratitude enough to the Lord for placing Spence in another amazing group of guys that value and encourage Spence. There is always some apprehension when taking on a new position but these guys have made it so easy. Most of the guys with Scotty’s band have been with him for over 10 years and there’s a reason for that. When you have a solid group that cares and looks out for each other, why go anywhere else? Scotty, thank you for taking a chance on Spence. I know you won’t be disappointed! You are gaining a super talented musician, but more importantly, a man of God that will be there to encourage, support and love people on the daily. There are no words to express just how proud I am of you, Spence! God has led you to this moment and He will continue to walk alongside you as you trust in Him. Mo and I are praying daily for you as you are on the road. What an honor you have been given and as Morgan and I already know, what an honor Team Scotty has in having you join their crew. We will see you soon! ========================================================== From Dan Peppard FB https://www.facebook.com/peppard.autoplex Lots of pictures from the weekends shows ...family of Spence went to Oklahoma to see him play . They are extremely happy about him playing with Scotty The band has welcomed him with open arms and made him feel very welcome Some lovely comments with all the photos. Looks like he is good fit .... ========================================================================= https://www.facebook.com/Mistipeppard Spence Peppard I’ve spent 2.5 amazing years on the road with Jason Crabb, Terry Thompson, Rhonda Thompson, Jeffrey Holm and have played many dates with Marcus Wiles, Israel Gonzales, Kris Bitten, and so many other musicians who are Nashville’s finest. It has been one of the sweetest seasons I’ve experienced, and I thank God He placed these people I now call family, in my life. Last night, I started a new job playing lead guitar with Scotty McCreery. My good friend, bassist/tour manager Nathan Thomas, and new friend guitarist/keyboardist Jeff Harper have so generously trusted me with this role, so I’m following the path God has once again placed before me. With Jason’s single debuting higher than any other of his career, and Scotty’s latest single currently sitting at #1 on country radio, I couldn’t be more proud of these guys, or grateful for the opportunity to share a portion of the stage with them. Thank you Crabb camp for the incredible, life changing years, and McCreery camp for welcoming me in a way in which I don’t feel worthy, and for your patience as I get up to speed. Misti, Mo, I love y’all so much, and we’ll see ya shortly =================================================== Dan Peppard Spence was just recently hired by Scotty McCreery’s team to play lead and sing back up vocals for him . Last night was his first night on stage with Scotty and I’m sure that it was an amazing experience . To have the honor to play Scotty’s current #1 hit that was co-written by one of Nashvilles great veteran songwriters , and who is also our friend Jim Collin’s , that grew up in Nacogdoches Tx. Spence, Misti and Morgan along with the rest of us Peppards will always be indebted to Jason Crabb. He introduced Spence to the Opry stage and always encouraged him. It was a great 2 1/2 years and we thank God for Jason who also gave Spence his blessings to go with Scotty. Thank you , thank you ,thank you Jason, we LOVE YOU Edited August 2, 2022 by buttons66 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttons66 Posted August 4, 2022 Author Share Posted August 4, 2022 Krista chats with Scotty McCreery Saint John, NB, Canada / Country 94 https://www.country94.ca/2022/08/02/krista-chats-with-scotty-mccreery/?fbclid=IwAR2Ee7mUc7ax7XLwYBBJuyigk-sFNsVbmEibB8PvRK6WiisaLgdGKgsQj2c Imagine how Krista felt last week when she knew the phone would be ringing in the control room and none other than Scotty McCreery would be on the other end of the line! It was fun to chat with Scotty about his latest #1 single Damn Strait, his upcoming appearance at YQM Country Fest and Krista even suggested a nickname for his baby boy. Have a listen! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Ottawa1946 Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Just listened to the Coffee, Country and Cody Podcast. What is the CCA Global Co ? Who will see the Private show/Exclusive Opry (with the 10 songs set) that Scotty & the band did? Obviously it wasn't advertised. Just wondering.
