About this episode
Mitchell Tenpenny basically grew up in the music business, with a grandmother who was the CEO of Sony Publishing and a mother who advocated for songwriters throughout her career. It was this unique vantage point that made Mitchell realize he wanted to be a songwriter, too, but the journey took him a while. It wasn’t until his boss on a construction site put him in touch with an LA producer that Mitchell’s own music career started to take shape. Now, he’s releasing an ambitious and deeply personal new 20-track studio album called The Third , a reference to both the father and grandfather he’s named after. Sid talks to Mitchell about some of his favorite songs on the new record, his grandmother’s cooking, the stories behind his beloved rescue dogs, and how his faith is reflected in his music and his career.
