Mark Mackay, L.A. Cali boy and San Fran native told the boss "laters" and dove heart first into making his dreams as a Country Music artist a reality. It was amazing to listen to him talk about following his convictions and taking the daily trials of slumming it on the road in stride. I had the pleasure of seeing him play at the Grizzly Rose in Denver, opening for the Eli Young Band. Not to mention his buddy Gilby Clarke, from Guns and Roses showed up and played a song for everyone too! Hope you enjoy this episode.
