Description

We sit down with Colby Acuff—country music artist, fourth-generation Idahoan, and former fly-fishing guide. We talk about his journey from guiding on rivers by day to playing music in smoky bars at night, and how the wilds of Idaho helped shape the raw, no-nonsense sound he’s now known for.


We get into the making of his breakout record If I Were the Devil, what it’s been like playing with legends, and how it felt stepping onto the Grand Ole Opry stage for the first time. Colby also opens up about staying grounded, staying independent, and how fishing still plays a role in his life—even with all the buzz in Nashville.


If you're into authentic country music with a bit of dirt under the fingernails, and stories that roll like a western river, this one’s for you.


Find everything Colby, here.
