"I don't sing anything I don't write and I don't write anything I haven't lived through," Brantley tells The Boot. "At the beginning of my career there was a lot of pressure with folks telling me, 'You gotta move to Nashville.' I was scared if I signed with a label they'd slap a cowboy hat and some Wranglers on me and make me sing somebody else's songs."
