It's a tale as old as time (or at least as old as the 1970's): a country artist garners enough crossover appeal that they make the deliberate switch to Pop Music. Some artists return to their roots, some fizzle out, and others become the biggest touring acts on the planet. This week we are joined by comedy producer Danii Gallegos (We Still Like You) to discuss the Marren Morris's controversial statement on why she's leaving country to join forces with Jack Antonoff, plus who else has successfully left country for greener (more lucrative) pastures.
