Jody Abernathy
In this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I am honored to sit down with my dearest friend, Jody Abernathy. Our friendship started back in 2013, and from the very beginning, I felt a profound connection with Jody, both musically and personally. Over the years, we had the incredible pleasure of playing and singing together in the band Across the Wide, a period that stands out as the most musically joyous time of my life.
During our conversation, we delve into Jody's diverse musical tastes and his unique approach to songwriting. Jody's ability to draw inspiration from various genres has always intrigued me, and in this episode, he shares the influences that shape his music.
In addition to discussing his musical journey, we explore a more personal and poignant topic: Jody's path to sobriety. He candidly shares his experiences with addiction and recovery, offering insights into how these challenges have profoundly influenced his writing and performing. His story is one of resilience and transformation, and it adds a powerful layer to our understanding of his artistry.
