It’s been a few weeks since we caught up with Jason but it feels like a lifetime ago now. Our conversation came mere days before a massive tornado ripped through Nashville, luckily Jason and his family and friends are ok but boy at the time we had no idea how much different the world would look a few months later. From Nashville being turned upside down by the tornado to a pandemic that would see sports and music events cancelled, borders closed and artists turning to live streaming to keep their fans engaged.
