    Charles Kelley: Sobriety, ’80s Vibes & Songs for a New Moon
    Aug 12 2025
    Lady A’s Charles Kelley joins Spout to open up about life after three years sober, fatherhood, and the creative freedom behind his bold new solo album Songs for a New Moon. The 16-track, ’80s-inspired project blends gratitude, vulnerability, and big, anthemic energy—featuring standout originals like “Can’t Lose You” plus fresh takes on “Time After Time” and The Killers’ “Here With Me.” Charles shares how his wife’s support shaped the journey, why he’s no longer afraid to try something different, and how this record captures the music that shaped him—Phil Collins, Toto, Bryan Adams, and more. From golf course wins to Red Bull-fueled live shows, this candid, funny, and heartfelt conversation reveals a whole new side of Charles Kelley. Learn more about your ad choices.

    Russell Dickerson Is Done Holding Back
    Aug 4 2025
    In this episode of the Spout Podcast, country hitmaker Russell Dickerson sits down with host Tamara Dhia to talk about going full throttle—on stage, in the studio, and in life. Fresh off his biggest tour to date and riding high from the viral success of his high-energy anthem “Happened to Me,” Russell reflects on the moment everything clicked: fans singing along just two weeks after the song dropped, TikToks blowing up, and over 100 million streams later... it’s clear something special really did happen. Russell shares how his upcoming album Famous Back Home brings his full personality to the surface—from fist-pumping bangers to deeply personal ballads—and why he's finally leaning into the wild, goofy, high-energy version of himself his fans already know and love. He also opens up about betting on himself when the industry wouldn’t, shooting a breakout music video in a thunderstorm, and why genre gatekeeping is the least country thing you can do. Plus: stories about growing up alongside Brandi Cyrus, choreographing dances with the Savannah Bananas, hanging out with MMA fighters, getting parenting advice from his “fire squad,” and dreaming of a Cyndi Lauper remix. (She’s on tour. He’s manifesting.) If you like heart, hustle, and high kicks with your country music, this episode’s for you. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In this episode, she joins Erik Zachary for round two on the Spout Podcast to talk about her debut album Addison—a slick, synth-soaked trip through heartbreak, self-reflection, and glossy, gorgeous pop. They dive into the cinematic vision behind “Diet Pepsi,” the bold choice to include two short-but-stunning interludes, and why black-and-white visuals might just be the rebellion we need in a hyper-saturated world. Addison opens up about what it’s like to finally see her sound take shape, from intimate Box shows in New York and London to storming stages with Charli XCX on the Sweat tour. With just two producers (both women) and a laser-focused creative team, Addison isn’t your typical feature-stacked debut—it’s a tight-knit, body-moving, mood-shifting experience.
