Craig Campbell Sets Grand Opening of Grindstone Cowboy

April 13, 2022 (Nashville, Tennessee) - Country hit maker Craig Campbell and his wife Mindy revealed plans to open a coffee shop in their home town of Eagleville, Tennessee several months ago, and today, they are pleased to announce the grand opening of Grindstone Cowboy on Saturday, April 30, 2022. The fun day will kick off at 8 a.m. and feature kid-friendly events, live music from Jason Sturgeon, Craig and his family and other special guests, and of course coffee.

“Mindy and I share the love of coffee and music, and this has been a dream of ours for a long time,” said Craig, who alluded to the fact that there is no drive-thru coffee shop within 20 minutes of their house. “We love this community, and want this to be a welcoming place for our friends, neighbors and visitors to have a great cup of coffee, good fellowship, wonderful music and maybe a drink or two.”

Housed in a historic building at 115 North Main Street in the heart of Eagleville, Grindstone Cowboy will include a restaurant, bar and music venue and feature craft coffee drinks, coffee cocktails, beer on tap, and soups and sandwiches at lunch. Coffee for Grindstone Cowboy will be roasted by popular Nashville coffee house Frothy Monkey, and an in-house baker will create baked goods and desserts. The “new” floor of the extensively renovated building was repurposed from one of the theater stages in Nashville’s renowned Tennessee Performing Arts Center. Evening concerts featuring top touring artists will be announced in the coming weeks.

“Every step of this project has involved our entire family, because we are all invested in this dream,” added Mindy, referring to their daughters Preslee and Kinni Rose. “This has been a huge labor of love, and we’re excited for April 30 to get here!”

Grindstone Cowboy will be open 6 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday and closed Sunday. The shop will host regular evening concerts and intimate writers’ nights similar to the famed Bluebird Café in Nashville. Women Winestone Wednesday, Live music on Saturdays 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., Kids Karaoke, and a book exchange are also planned. The Campbells will also be making the space available to rent for birthday parties, music showcases, meetings and more.

About Craig Campbell:

In a world fueled by the smoke and mirror act of overnight success, Campbell has long been admired for his patience and persistence on the road less travelled. A consistent balancing act of traditional values and modern industry trends, Campbell is also considered by many to be one of the most talented yet under the radar stars, across all genres. The magic of the keys brought him his hunger for music as a child. The good ole’ down home boy grew up playing his mother’s piano and singing in church. After graduating high school, he took a job as a corrections officer in his hometown of Lyons, Georgia. But music never left his side. Taking a cue from the sounds of classic country and idols like Travis Tritt and Randy Travis, Campbell started a band and played local and national bar gigs. When the guitar player quit, Campbell took that as a sign to chase his dreams all the way to Nashville, Tennessee. 

Starting in 2002, the young hopeful spent the next several years paying his dues as a demo singer by day and Lower Broadway gigger by night. He connected with fellow South Georgia native Luke Bryan and started touring as his keyboard player. A year and a half long keyboard stint with Tracy Byrd soon followed, and he took over as bandleader down at The Stage on Tuesday nights on his non-touring days. His smooth chops and hot blooded stage presence soon caught the eye of industry execs and in 2009, Campbell signed his first record deal.

His debut single, “Family Man,” hit the Billboard top 15 in 2011. “Outta My Head” also cracked the top 15, catchy tune “Fish” garnered more than 10 million demand streams. His 2014 breakout hit “Keep Them Kisses Comin’” was on its way up the charts when Campbell got the unexpected news that his label had closed. He and his devoted team continued to press radio stations around the country, so much so that the single ended an impressive run well inside the Top 10, which is unheard of for a song with no financial backing.

He signed with Red Bow Records, a division of the Broken Bow umbrella, and “Tomorrow Tonight” made it into the top 40, followed by perhaps his most poignant and well-known work to date, “Outskirts of Heaven.” “Outskirts” showcased Campbell’s vulnerability and deep rooted faith and was praised by Rolling Stone and Taste of Country, among others.

The impact of “Outskirts” prompted media appearances and memorable performances at nationally televised NFL games, the TODAY show, CMA Fest, and the Grand Ole Opry, the latter of which he has made over 50 appearances to date. And in a full circle moment, the down home Georgia boy reunited with buddy Luke Bryan on his highly successful 2017 Huntin’, Fishin’, and Lovin’ Every Day Tour.

In the summer of 2018, Campbell released his first new music in five years with his “See You Try” EP on Broken Bow. The title track became an instant crowd pleaser with its confident, flirty lyrics and boot stompin’ melody. The EP also found a home for both an electric and acoustic version of “Outskirts of Heaven.” By August of 2018, Campbell and Broken Bow had mutually parted ways. After a two-year break, he came back last year with the highly anticipated single, “It’s About Time.”
