The internationally syndicated Whiskey and Cigarettes Radio Show has announced their exclusive interview with Featured Artist Craig Hendricks, who is promoting his latest single, “Deere, John.”
A retro country troubadour raised on family farmland in Sandersville, Georgia, Hendricks blends classic country storytelling with influences ranging from bluegrass to Motown. Introduced to guitar by his grandfather, he spent years honing his craft before stepping fully into the music world—quickly landing a publishing deal within six months of arriving in Nashville. His debut releases earned radio airplay and chart success, including extended runs at #1 on Indie and UK charts.
Since then, Hendricks has released multiple acclaimed EPs and a full-length album (May 20, 2025), while continuing to tour nationally. His songs have climbed Cruisin’ Country, Cashbox, and Christian Country charts, and he has accumulated numerous honors from American Songwriter Magazine, the World Song Awards, and other major songwriting organizations.
Listeners can hear Craig Hendricks’ Featured Artist interview on Whiskey and Cigarettes beginning Sunday, January 11, 2026, airing between 11:00 AM and 3:00 PM ET. The episode will broadcast live on Military Brotherhood Radio (mbradio.us), be syndicated on 40+ stations worldwide, and stream on demand via Apple Music, SoundCloud, and www.whiskeyandcigarettesshow.com.
