T he Kentucky-born singer shared his advice for following your dreams after the show.

'If you dream of being a musician don't just dream, do,' he said, 'If you have dreams of being in Nashville then you have to come to Nashville...it takes some commitment, and it takes a lot of dedication to a craft and it takes some hard work but also just loving it enough to keep doing it.'
