Tucker Beathard is giving fans an intimate look into the creative process of his recently-released and praised album KING, launching KING STORYTELLERS SESSIONS today. Joined by co-writers Casey Beathard, Marla Cannon-Goodman, Phil O’Donnell, co-producer and co-writer Ryan Tyndell and hosted by Ashley Eicher, the first episode of the weekly series offers an emotional look into the behind-the-scenes of singer/ prolific-songwriter/ co-producer and multi-instrumentalist Beathard’s deeply personal song “I Ain’t Without You,” available to watch here.

“Since I can remember I’ve channeled my emotions through writing songs,” explained Beathard. “As a fan of music I’m always curious how a song idea comes around and so I thought this series would be a cool way to show what went into making this record. All of the writers in the series are people that have had my back since day one and I’ve been blessed to work with. It’s awesome to be able to share this with them.”
