Bar Conversations Hops & Spirits Logo with a guitar and whiskey glass

We sit down with Nashville-based singer-songwriter and guitarist Corey Congilio to talk about his new 6-song EP, A Good Place To Start. Corey shares the story of how the blues became the heart of his music, from early influences and legendary artists to shaping his own sound as both a sideman and now a solo artist.

With over 25 years of experience performing, recording, and teaching, Corey opens up about the transition from lifelong guitarist-for-hire to releasing a project that highlights his passion for blues. We dive into the inspiration behind A Good Place To Start, the process of selecting hidden gems from blues legends, and how his philosophy of “betting on oneself” has shaped this new chapter in his career.
