The List for Friday, December 17th 2021

Welcome to The List,

Looks like Tim McGraw has found his ‘dream job’ and all this time we thought it was making music…well, that’s just as important to him too but this time around it just happens to be landing His New Series, ‘1883’ ACTING opposite his wife Faith Hill.  Tim tells us about his character James Dutton “He’s an intense guy, and he’s a resolute guy. He’s a complicated guy, there’s nothing simple about James.  In my mind James never sleeps, he never stops worrying and he’s never not paying attention” Tim says he sings on the set of the show. ‘1883’ premieres on Paramount+ on Sunday, December 19th.

Jon Pardi Once Got A Guitar For Xmas when he was 5 or 6 and says it’s what lit that spark for him. “This guitar spent multiple nights in the backyard and probably got hit by a sprinkler. it was kind of a toy then, but it started the whole spark. So, I always tell parents you just never know, if you get a little toy that’s a guitar or drum set, you never know what that’ll spark in a child’s mind. So.” What would he have done if not for that guitar…I think he’d be farming like he still DOES today!
