Eddie Vanzant may not be a household name across the nation, but in Martinsville, Indiana, he is well-known for his time as the frontman of the beloved local country group, the Eddie Vanzant Band. Although the band no longer performs, as Eddie has chosen to prioritize his family first, his music continues to resonate with those who remember.
Eddie will take listeners on a nostalgic journey down the gravel roads of his past. It was on these roads that a chance encounter with a coondog sparked his father's love for coonhunting, a passion that Eddie carries with him to this day.
Now, Eddie channels his love for hounds into his business, Indian Creek Kennels, where he dedicates his time to nurturing and training these remarkable animals. Alongside his professional endeavors, Eddie shares a deeply personal story about his son Ethan, who faced a challenging medical condition. During this difficult time, Eddie leaned on his faith, trusting in God to work through the hands of the doctors to bring healing to his son. He also reflects on how attending church has profoundly impacted his faith and strengthened his family bonds. Through these experiences, Eddie's story is one of resilience, faith, and the enduring power of family and community.
