Episode Description from the Publisher

THE JEREMIAH SHOW Featuring Tristan Tritt   For Tristan Tritt, rock and roll has always been a voice of defiance—and he has no intention of playing it safe.   The son of country music icon Travis Tritt, Tristan grew up backstage and on tour buses, immersed in music before setting out to build a life entirely his own. He joins Jeremiah to discuss overcoming stage fright, building a community around his music, and making songs he hopes will still matter 30 years from now.   Tristan also opens up about his parents, Travis and Theresa, the lessons he learned growing up on the road, and why the smell of “cigarettes and diesel” instantly transports him back to childhood.   At the center is his new single, “Living the Dream,” a hard-hitting anthem born of a generation trying to make sense of a divided world.   “There was a rawness to rock and roll that caught my attention and never let go.”   Tristan Tritt carries that rock rawness forward.   TRISTAN TRITT WEBSITE TRISTAN TRITT SPOTIFY TRISTAN TRITT INSTAGRAM     CHAPTERS 00:00 Introduction and episode overview 04:58 Nostalgia for community and patriotism in Idaho 16:11 Family influences and marriage of Tristan’s parents 18:05 Inspiration from his mother’s kindness and selflessness 19:25 Growing up on the road and childhood memories 21:12 Lessons from life on the road and routines 23:30 Future plans and raising a family on the road 25:01 Early memories of backstage and sensory experiences 26:47 Stage nerves and performance mindset 28:16 The influence of rock and roll on his soul 38:21 Principles to live by: integrity and honesty 40:20 Connecting with fans through genuine interaction 41:56 The evolving image of a rock star today 43:07 The modern rock star lifestyle and discipline 45:10 Rebellious childhood and attitude towards authority 45:54 Personal vices and self-discipline 47:16 Introducing his band members and their roles 49:22 The importance of storytelling in his music 50:30 Expressing frustration and hope in his lyrics 54:40 Future goals and the meaning of living the dream 56:21 Closing remarks and encouragement for aspiring artists   POP CULTURE, MUSIC ICONS, &amp; FOOD GODS - Listen More &amp; Evolve   Catch Up With Past Shows and Your Favorite Guests - TJS MEDIA LIBRARY   Partner with The Jeremiah Show  BRAND PARTNER DECK   The Jeremiah Show is brought to you by Evolve Entertainment Network  www.thejeremiahshow.com https://radio-evolve.rocks   Host | Executive Producer - Jeremiah D.
