Filmore and his wife Paige join Married to the Music for a conversation about love, life on the road, parenthood, and the reality behind the music industry.

From growing up just an hour apart without ever meeting, to eventually crossing paths at Tin Roof, the two share the unexpected story of how their relationship began and what it took to make long distance work while Filmore chased his music career. Paige also opens up about her demanding career as a pediatric cardiac sonographer and what it’s like balancing motherhood, medicine, and life alongside an artist.

The couple talks honestly about trust in relationships, navigating social media and touring, becoming parents, and the emotional experience of welcoming their daughter early and spending 20 days in the NICU. They also share stories from touring with Pitbull, raising their son Asher, and the behind-the-scenes moments fans rarely get to see.

This episode is funny, emotional, chaotic in the best way, and a real look at what it means to build a life together behind the music.

Brittney Johnson, wife of country artist Jamey Johnson, joins Married to the Music to share her story of building a career as an attorney, falling into an unexpected love story, and navigating marriage in the country music industry.

From a tight-knit childhood in Mississippi to graduating from Ole Miss Law and making her mark in the courtroom, Brittney had a clear, driven path until one unexpected meeting changed everything. She opens up about meeting Jamey at a governor’s inauguration, not even knowing who he was, their instant connection, and the moment he “proposed” just days later, only half-kidding.

And yes… they got married because what’s a casual, low-key life decision without a little country music chaos?

Brittney gets real about what it actually looked like to leave behind her identity as a trial lawyer, move to Nashville, and figure out life and love in the music industry from long distance and time on the road to rebuilding her sense of self and creating balance in a completely new world.
