About this episode

Ray Fulcher shares his journey as a songwriter in Nashville and his passion for golf.

Our episode this week involves one of Nashville’s most sought-after songwriters, Ray Fulcher. We’ve gotten to know Ray well over the last few years, and it’s no secret that outside of work and hunting, he can’t kick the golf bug. Cool story alert - we get into the beginning when he decided to move to Nashville. It was within that first week or so that he met another guy, and they both started hanging out and writing together. Ray tells the story and reveals that the guy he met early on was Luke Combs.  The journey for him started there, and he started creating his craft by writing songs that ended up being cut by some major artists. We hear about what it’s like working in the music business and how the song process starts to take shape. If you’re an avid listener of the show, this isn’t your first time hearing from a songwriter.  We turn the talk over to some small banter and life talk. Naturally, we gravitate into golf and ‘pay day’ Ray lets us in on his love for golf. This episode was recorded at Old Hickory in Nashville, TN.
