This week on Bar Talk Happy Hour, we’re diving into the surprising and sometimes downright strange jobs your favorite country artists worked before they ever stepped on stage. Can you guess who once bounced rowdy college crowds, who delivered soda for a paycheck, or who spent time scrubbing and bartending just to get by?
From ranch work to oddball shifts in the service industry, these stories remind us that even country legends had to hustle before hitting it big. Pour yourself a drink and join us as we uncover the side hustles and hard work that shaped the stars you know today.
