Austin to Fort Hood to show support for our military. The A&M alum, with help from his alter-ego Earl Dibbles Jr., is selling out venues across Texas and beyond. Last week Granger called into Radio Texas, LIVE! to talk about his 3rd Annual 100 Mile Boot Walk, and to debut his new single "Silverado Bench Seat."

Twenty-two year old veteran Jeremy Smith received his Purple Heart when he was injured by an I.E.D (improvised explosive device) while serving in Afghanistan -- and just wait till you see what the Boot Campaign did for him.
