Why A 1993 Mustang Cobra Is On Country Artist Brandon Lay's Wishlist

This weekend we get the chance to meet up with EMI Recording Artist, Brandon Lay. Gannon got his hands on a 1993 Mustang Fox Body Cobra, which happens to be on Brandon's wishlist. The 1993 model was the last made but it was the first year that Ford launched the SVT division, which developed specially tuned versions. Thus the Cobra was one of the highest-performing vehicles of the day. The look and sound are unmistakable and some fans even refer to this pony car as the best muscle car ever made.
Brandon Lay has hit the charts in a big way! His style falls somewhere between Don Williams and Def Leppard. He's also a car guy so we took the chance to meet up with him to talk cars, music, and BBQ.
Brandon talks to Gannon about the correlation between not only singing, but writing music and working on cars, or creating something mechanically. And it all comes down the details. Most recently, Brandon was on the Brothers Of The Sun Tour with Kenny Chesney, playing 19 stadiums.
They end up at Marcy Jo's restaurant just outside of Nashville. They cover the background on Brandon's hit song "Speakers, Bleachers, And Preachers" and how he goes through the song-writing process. To finish it off, we took questions from fans that Brandon answers!
You can find Brandon's tour schedule at brandonlay.com

In my stock '93 Cobra BTW (which I still own).

[@carlosc.555]

Gannon, what gives? You're in a Cobra, yet everyone on the highway is passing you.... EVERYONE. You're going so slow that a semi had to switch lanes to pass you. How disappointing....

[@adventuresofwillandshelby6013]

Carlos C. Lol, you’re right! Looked like a knight transport truck... But all jokes aside, don’t bash all us semis... I run out west ALOT. All deserted backroads. I typically set my cruise control between 80 and 95. I got the “trophy” on the shop wall at home... Clocked doing 142 while loaded just west of kingman Arizona... 😎🤣 Not all trucks are slow lol

Brandon, can you write a song about the Foxbody Mustang that has had a huge impact on America's car guys and gals? It still continues to make new fans and is becoming one of America's favorites of all generations. Great video!

[@anthonylaudano9751]

The king of the foxbody.Also the king of SVT.My vibrant red 93 cobra doubled in value.Do I need to say anything else.May not be the fastest car but if you're a mustang guy you love a 93 cobra.
