Fresh off the release of his new album Handmade Horsepower, Colby Acuff joins the Whiskey Riff Raff podcast to talk about winning Whiskey Riff Raff Madness, the viral origins of "Dunk That Shit," why social media is breaking country music, and why some of the most talented artists in the genre still aren't getting the recognition they deserve.

Colby dives into his frustrations with modern country music, explains why he believes Nashville is still the place to be for aspiring artists, and shares why Handmade Horsepower is the record he wants to be remembered for. He also discusses writing every song on the album himself, the short film that accompanies the project, and the impact artists like Sturgill Simpson have had on his career.
