Episode 11

On Top of the World with Stephen Day

Ever wondered what it's like to navigate the ebb and flow of the music industry? Listen as Nashville musician Stephen Day takes us through his revealing journey from a pastor's kid in Georgia to performing on the world's stage. He unravels the emotional tapestry behind his first EP, "Undergrad Romance," and how his leap of faith into the music industry has enriched his life.

In our hyper-digital age, creating timeless records can be a daunting task. Yet, Stephen passionately discusses his commitment to producing heartfelt, authentic music. His music has seen more than 110 Million streams to date. 

There's an unspoken belief that success in music is a smooth, linear path - but Stephen uncovers the untold story, filled with highs, lows, and unexpected opportunities. He shares some hard truths about the industry, the emotional roller coaster that accompanies performances, and the vulnerability that artists often grapple with. Couched within these confessions, Stephen offers us a glimpse into how his wife Abby has steadfastly supported him through his bumpy ride and how their journey together has shaped his music.

So, are you ready to be inspired? Tune in and let Stephen's story ignite your passion for chasing your own dreams.

People are my passion! I wake up each day wanting to make a difference, inspiring and encouraging others.

I was born and raised in Binghamton, New York, and relocated my family to East Tennessee during the pandemic. My wife, Stephanie, and I have four beautiful kids. Joshua, Jordan, and identical twins - Hailey and Harper.

They are our world and make our lives crazy! We also have two mini-golden doodles, Zeke and Teddy, and we live outside Knoxville, Tennessee.

I'm a husband, father, and business owner.

Outside of the One Big Thing Podcast, I also co-host the award-winning Ditch the Suits Podcast alongside Travis Maus.
