There’s a lot to be proud about when you’re from the South – whether it’s the stellar barbecue, the penchant for size, or the cowboy renaissance. For Justin Thomas and Eric Church, a Kentuckian and North Carolinian native, their hometowns raised them to appreciate all it can offer in its love of music or love of golf. On a beautiful late summer morning, the two met up at the exclusive Troubadour Golf Club in Tennessee and decided to hang out a day after Thomas’ charity event where Church gave an appearance.
Parking up to the club with his all-electric BMW i7, Thomas met Church who was already out on the green. Despite their differences in career, the two are friends and caught up – properly this time – about their successes and their passion for music and golf. For Church, his music career speaks for itself – as Country music royalty, five of his albums have gone platinum and he has sold out arenas with each of his tours.
He wrote his first song at the age of 13 but his career really began in Nashville where he has resided since he was a teenager. That first song? “It wasn’t good” he admits, but he understood what the creative process meant at that young of an age, and fostered that passion continuously. He attributes this ongoing drive and his father’s support to his success now.
