Colt and David sit down with singer/songwriter Harper Grace. 
Harper Grace is a Texas native with dreams the size of her home state. The rising country music star’s initial experience in the spotlight came at just 11 years old when her first public performance of the National Anthem didn’t go as planned, eliciting widespread criticism from an array of online observers and media outlets. Ten years later, the American Idol alum concluded a 12-city ‘Redemption Tour’ of professional sporting events by nailing her version game-after-game of the patriotic song.  Now residing in Nashville, Harper released new music in 2023, including “Sparkle”, “Oh Say Can You See,” an autobiographical track she penned for her 11-year-old self, and “Down In My Hometown”.
