Offstage America
Offstage America is Michael Ray like you’ve never heard him before.
No stage lights. No script.
This show lives where real life happens, on the road, on the porch, in the woods, at the table. Michael sits down for honest conversations about the things that actually matter: family, faith, the outdoors, sports, music, mental health, giving back, and what it means to build a life you’re proud of.
Guests range from fellow artists, athletes, celebrities and veterans to everyday Americans with real stories worth hearing. Some you’ll recognize instantly. Others you’ll be glad you met here first.
Michael brings a rare perspective from someone who’s toured nationally, topped charts, lived the highs of success, and still stayed rooted in who he is and where he comes from. That makes the conversations relaxed, unfiltered, and real. The kind of conversations that don’t happen on stage or in interviews.
Offstage America isn’t about hype. It’s about real people. It’s about life off the stage and the stories that shape us when no one’s watching.

Michael Ray isn’t here to play a character.
In the very first episode of Offstage America, Michael and Paul break down how a “quick whiskey call” turned into a full-blown movement...and why it’s happening at the exact right time. Michael opens up about a year of major transition: his Warner deal ending, rebuilding his team and direction, a real spiritual reset, the self-doubt he’s never said out loud, and the moment he decided he was done keeping people at arm’s length.
They also lay out what this show is actually about: faith, the outdoors, real friendship, veterans and first responders, men’s mental health, and shining a light on the small-town heroes who never get their flowers.
Plus: what’s next — new music, a January writing camp, and taking Offstage America on the road.
