Behind the Setlist is rebroadcasting its first episode from May 2022, an incredible conversation with the one and only Andy Grammer. You may have recently seen Grammer perform at the 100th annual Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony in Washington D.C. And you probably know Grammer for such songs as "Keep Your Head Up" and "Don't Give Up On Me." Billboard talked to Grammer earlier in 2022 about putting people in a good mood at his concerts. “The word positive is cheesy," he said. You’re at a loss to begin with. You’re just starting down 20 points.” But, at the same time, “we all need optimism." Grammer also talks about how he chooses songs to put in a setlist and how he uses poetry to connect with his audiences. If you missed this episode the first time around, you're in for a treat.
