In this episode of American Hustle, Austin Moody sits down with legendary Nashville guitarist Jeff King for a conversation that goes far beyond music.

Jeff came out of the mountains of East Tennessee and carved out one of the most respected careers in the industry — staying in demand for decades in a business where most people burn out fast. But what sets Jeff apart isn’t just mastery of his craft. It’s how he played the long game.

We talk about discipline, staying elite, and why Jeff chose to build real financial freedom through real estate instead of relying solely on the music industry. Jeff also shares his perspective on how AI and technology are changing music — and what skills will still matter in the years ahead.

This episode is for musicians, entrepreneurs, blue-collar builders, and anyone who wants to master their craft, diversify their income, and build a life on their own terms.

No hype. No shortcuts. Just real hustle.
