In this wide-ranging conversation, Jimmy opens up about the touching inspiration behind the new single 'Thank God for Mamma & Daddy,' the emotional power of recording the album live, and how faith continues to guide his journey, from his Statler Brothers days to now.

They also discuss the companion DVD featuring Ricky Skaggs and Sharon White, his enduring connection to Statler classics, and why now was the right time to release his memoir 'Story of an American Dreamer.'

Jimmy shares deeply personal reflections, stories fans may be surprised to hear, and what he hopes his music and his life will be remembered for. 'Songs of an American Dreamer' is out now with 14 tracks blending new material, fan favorites, and timeless gospel and country roots.
