Didn’t have @BoyzIIMen covering a song i wrote for Cody Johnson on my radar for 2026 but some dreams come true anyway.

[Troy Cartwright @troycartwright]

@TimCastleman pretty good - I’m still not great but i enjoy it very much. Slowed down a little bc we got a 12 week old baby so when i got free time i try and make sure im writing as much as i can. Good news is the inspiration is stronger than ever

[Troy Cartwright @troycartwright]

im so proud of this song and this (about to be) new record. Thanks for listening 🫡🫡

‘It sounds like old @tompetty
I’m one Heartbreaker away
From calling you, babe’

��� from @troycartwright

songwriting is fantastic

Tight driving drums (the floor tom!!)

A proper screaming guitar solo

& a PUNCHY arrangement for the final chorus 😁

@thesamparr Best book I’ve ever read.

If you don’t want to make the jump, check out “working” by Robert Caro (same author). It will make you want to read the power broker.

@thesamparr i did a pod on Swiss watches and the quartz crisis and how it relates to the music industry if ya wanna check it out.

My new EP Etc. All The Rest is available where ever you find music. It’s a story of a guy lost out in West Texas, and it’s some of my best work.

Feels like the end of an era.

I have flown @SouthwestAir from BNA to DAL probably 80 times in the last 10 years. I never even thought twice about it.

With all the recent changes, I checked out @AmericanAir and was $250 cheaper. and the flight times were better.

[Troy Cartwright @troycartwright]

New one just dropped called “That’s Alright.” New record is coming together…

@thesamparr Robert earl keen fixes 96% of my problems. Often, “feels so good, feeling good again.”

Pilgrimage Fest was great this year.

Kings of Leon was far and away the best act that I saw. It was a complete show and the visuals were particularly stunning.

Sam Fender was also very good, I’d see him again.

Not my fav JM show but that’s just bc his acoustic tour was 🤯

[Troy Cartwright @troycartwright]

If you had to rank your top 3 John Mayer albums - what order are you going in?

[Troy Cartwright @troycartwright]

@jdgroover Just my two cents, but I don’t think the answer is more. I think scarcity is undervalued, and I think people are hungry for deep music and artistry to dig into it.

Throwing stuff at the wall and seeing what sticks isn’t serving anybody anymore.

[Troy Cartwright @troycartwright]

That feeling is one I’ve been wrestling with. I wrote a little bit more about that, and ‘Conventional Wisdom’

I read two books. One was from an author that puts out several books a year, and the other from an author that puts out one book every decade. The main difference between the two is that one I still remember and think of often, and the other I’ve never thought about again.
