When an artist starts to hit it big and the money begins to flow in, it is easy to want to splurge on something big and unnecessary. For instance, Lee Brice admitted that his frivolous purchase was an original 1986 Bigfoot monster truck. “When you drive it, it will change your life. It is wild!” the “Rumor” singer exclaimed. Personally, I don’t think that was a dumb or frivolous buy. I need a monster truck too!
Tucker Wetmore recently took the stage at the Ryman Auditorium as part of a new artist showcase.  The “Friends Like That” singer took the opportunity to announce his debut album, “What Not To,” which will be dropping on April 25. Not long after the album release, Wetmore will return to the “Mother Church of Country Music” for his first headline show at the venue.
I’m Sheena, and that’s your Music City Minute.
