413 – Matt Oakley – Solder’s Son
- 413 – Matt Oakley – Solder’s Son Oscar Mike Radio 35:14
This was a first for me. Anna Castle from Kore PR reached out and asked if I was interested in talking with Nashville recording artist Matthew Oakley. Anna told me Matt Oakley, was the son of a military veteran with a new single dropping called, “Soldier’s Son”.
I haven’t interviewed a military son or daughter who was a recording artist, so Matt and I met and started talking. His story is wide-ranging, and I could tell he was proud of his father’s service.
Matt shared insights into his creative process, the emotional connection to military families, and the significance of authenticity in music. The conversation highlighted the unique perspective of a military child and the impact of military life on personal identity, offering a heartfelt tribute to military families.
As we discussed Matt’s music career, he talked about his experiences as a military child, and the inspiration behind his song “Soldier Son,” which honors his father’s service.
“Soldier’s Son” drops on September 12th, 2024. I look forward to listening to the show of love from a son to a father.
