Braden was born to Neil and Faith Braden and raised in Slapout, Alabama and attended Holtville High School. He started a rock band called Tempting Fate (later renamed Adamant) with some friends at age nineteen and performed locally around Montgomery and other parts of central and southern Alabama for several years. During this time, Braden expressed that he was listening to country music, and would lean into that sound when he would play solo acoustic shows, having been introduced to the genre by his parents, who would sing in bars, restaurants, and private parties. Braden moved from Slapout to Brentwood, Tennessee when he was twenty-seven, and eventually moved to Nashville to pursue music. Prior to becoming a full-time musician, Braden worked as a trained firefighter and would work on songs during his breaks. [1]
