Dallas Smith on Why he Took the Solo Country Gamble, The Manager that Nearly Bankrupted Him & More on I Hate Simkin
Update: 2025-10-08
Description
Dallas Smith sits down to trace a remarkable career arc: early club nights (Studebakers), a TVT deal that nearly derailed everything, and the eventual reinvention from rock frontman to platinum country artist.
They discuss the business nightmares of label bankruptcy and locked masters, the relationship with Joey Moi & Mountain View, why 604’s hands-on model mattered, and how streaming and touring economics now change the way careers are built and paid.
Dallas also opens up about the personal cost of touring, family challenges, and the friendships that outlasted it all.
