Singer-songwriter and American Idol winner Chayce Beckham sits down with Bobby for a candid conversation about the road that changed his life. He opens up about the drunk-driving car wreck that happened shortly before American Idol, why he didn’t think he had much of a future at the time, and how getting the call for the show gave him a new direction. Chayce also shares the story of marrying his longtime girlfriend in Las Vegas with an Elvis impersonator, what he’s learned after a year of marriage, and why he decided to take time away from music. Plus, he looks back at the success of “23,” starting over in Nashville after winning Idol, and the next chapter of his career with his new project, Old Fashioned.
