- Grammy winner Luke Laird

Talking to Luke Laird feels like talking to a friend I’ve known for years. We both have a deep love of music and theology. We’re about the same age, and we grew up on opposite sides of Pennsylvania through our teenage years, listening to the same bands and artists. We both have a master's in theology from the same school.

But Luke went on to be one of the most successful songwriters of all time.

​

He’s a Grammy winner, and has written a truly mind-blowing amount of chart-topping songs: 25 #1 hits and counting. He has also worked with some of the most well-known, successful artists in country music and other genres.

Oh, and he earned his master’s in the middle of writing some of those monster hits.

I’m grateful to Luke for taking time to talk about the huge changes in the music industry over the past years, his love of music across genres, winning a Grammy, and why he chose to pursue a master’s in the middle of all that.

Check out the episode above, give it a like, and tell me what you think.

Until next time.
