Bryan Andrews: Grit, Grizzly Cans & Challenging Country's Status Quo

In this episode of Outside The Round, host Matt Burrill chops it up with rising country artist Bryan Andrews, a bold new voice out of Carrollton, Missouri. From his early days welding and dipping Skoal Wintergreen to blowing up on TikTok during the pandemic, Bryan shares his raw, unfiltered journey into country music. But what sets him apart isn’t just the music—it’s his willingness to speak openly about being a left-leaning artist in a genre dominated by conservative voices. Bryan dives into what it means to challenge the narrative from the inside, how he navigates small-town values with progressive ideals, and why he believes there’s more room in country music for open-minded conversation than people think. With plenty of laughs, real talk, and a spotlight on his new single “Grizzly Can,” this one’s for anyone who loves country music but doesn’t always fit the mold.
