Country music artist, Paralympian, & Purple Heart recipient - SCOTTY HASTING - Ep. 50

March 15, 2025 • Dave Rumer and Jacob Colgan • Episode 50

On today’s show, we sit down with Black River Entertainment artist Scotty Hasting. In 2011, Scotty was serving as a US Army Infantryman in Afghanistan, where he was ambushed by enemy combatants and shot 10 times with heavy machine gun fire. Miraculously, he was able to survive and recover, but he’s had to work hard to overcome both the physical and emotional scars. The journey has included competitive archery for the US Paralympic team and, more recently, learning to play the guitar, perform, and write songs.

He has since signed with Black River Entertainment in Nashville, TN, well-known for country music stars such as Kelsea Ballerini and Chris Young. As a civilian, Scotty continues to serve by supporting military non-profits - performing for military families at the Grand Ole Opry, and for thousands of WWII veterans in Normandy, and more.

Scotty’s is an inspiring story of sacrifice, courage, and the willingness to reinvent himself again and again in order to overcome.
