Sam Palladio was pursuing a music career before he landed the role of Gunnar Scott on ABC’s Nashville, so to now be able to combine his love of music with his love of acting he says is “incredible… To land this gig, which was quite possibly the most perfect job for me, is just incredible. So now I’m living and working in this town with the best musicians and song-writers and producers in the world, and I get to have my music career on the side.”

Speaking of his music career, Sam says he will have new music out very soon. “I’m recording and I got my first album coming out, say in the next six months.”
