The Skeeters | Pickin' It Out w/ Andrew Pope #62
y'all get ready because this is the most emotional episode of pickin it out i've ever done. i was proud to sit down with bert david newton and matthew allan martin of the skeeters from fort payne alabama. they've toured with everybody from billy joe shaver to junior brown to willie nelson to robert earl keen to jamey johnson. and in 2007, just when they were at the height of their career, it all came to a halt. for the first time ever on camera, matthew allan martin tells us why. and now, some 19 years later, the skeeters have reunited to finish what they started and to bring us some new music. plenty of laughin but plenty of cryin too in this one y'all. grab you a tissue or two and don't miss this'n. --- SUBSCRIBE: @AndrewPopeMusic DOWNLOAD, RATE & REVIEW ON APPLE PODCASTS: https://linktr.ee/AndrewPope --- Find Andrew: Andrew on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/theandrewpope Andrew on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/andrewpopemusic Andrew on TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@andrewpopemusic Find The Skeeters: The Skeeters on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/theskeetersmedia The Skeeters on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/the.skeeters.media The Skeeters on TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@the_skeeters --- As always, this podcast is brought to you for free.
