Amazing Arizonans - J. David Sloan
Wednesday, August 30, 2023 | 42:09
On this edition of Amazing Arizonans I sit down with a hero of mine, J. David Sloan plays a big role in my early days in Arizona. He was the owner of the iconic country bar in Phoenix Mr. Lucky’s. His band Western Bred has been a country music fixture for decades. We talk about how he came to own Mr. Lucky’s, his music career and the relationships he has built. This conversation is a great look at some Arizona music history. I hope you like it as much as I did.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
