Scott Parker, the grandson of Buddy Williams, and Lindsay Butler, Buddy's esteemed guitarist, recently sat down with Shaza Leigh and Lachlan Butler for a heartfelt conversation in honor of the legendary Australian country music star. The gathering brought to light untold stories of life on the road with Buddy, as Lindsay shared vivid and personal memories of traveling and performing alongside the pioneering artist. These stories offered a rare glimpse into the camaraderie, challenges, and moments of joy that defined Buddy’s journey as a musician and as a person.

Adding to the tribute, Scott provided a deeply touching perspective, sharing intimate insights about Buddy and his wife as the beloved "Nan and Pop" he grew up with, rather than the larger-than-life figures known to the rest of the world.

The conversation was a fitting tribute to Australia’s first homegrown country music star, blending personal anecdotes with historical significance, and showcasing the profound impact Buddy Williams had on those closest to him and the genre he helped shape.
