On Episode 307 of Outside The Round, Matt Burrill sits down with Australian country artist Mack Geiger during his first trip to the United States. Fresh off the release of his debut EP Walk a Straight Line, Mack shares how growing up on a cattle farm shaped his songwriting, the story behind his breakout hit "String By," and why traditional country music continues to inspire everything he creates. The two also discuss Mack's first U.S. headline tour, selling out legendary venues across Texas and Oklahoma, signing with Columbia Records Nashville, writing five of the six songs on his new project solo, and balancing music with his previous path toward becoming a paramedic. Plus, stories from Australia, country music culture around the world, and what's next for one of country's fastest-rising international artists.
