🎙️ A Journey of Resilience and Rhythm: Sal Gonzales

This week on Single Tree Nation, Charlie and Derry sit down with the inspiring Sal Gonzales, a former U.S. Marine turned country music artist. Hailing from East Los Angeles, Sal’s journey began with a passion for music, singing in choirs and performing with his Spanish rock band, “La Cabaña.” After serving his country post-9/11, Sal faced immense challenges, including a life-altering injury during deployment, which led to over 30 surgeries and the amputation of his leg.

Despite these hardships, Sal found his way back to music, using his platform to support fellow veterans through organizations like the Wounded Warrior Project. His powerful story has taken him from the halls of the Bluebird Cafe in Nashville to performing alongside country superstars like Taylor Swift and Keith Urban.

In this episode, Sal shares insights into his passion for music, the healing power of songwriting, and the importance of community and support in overcoming life’s obstacles. Charlie and Derry also dive into their usual discussions about life, the role of food in fostering connections, and what drives them to pursue their passions.
