Taylor Sheridan has threaded a variety of shared themes, motifs and even cast members throughout the various dramas populating the Yellowstone universe, including the utilization of country music stars. (Landing Tim McGraw as key ancestor James Dutton, for the best example.) CBS’ Marshals won’t be an exception to that expectation, either, and I’m not just referring to star Luke Grimes having evolved his own singer-songwriter skills.
Grimes, who had the pleasure of hearing one of his songs on Yellowstone, will be joined by a famed “buddy” of his from the music world, CMA and ACM Award-winning artist Riley Green. And unlike some past musicians’ appearances on Yellowstone, Green isn’t being lined up to necessarily showcase his day-job talents. I mean, I wouldn’t discount the potential for his character to sing at some point, but it doesn’t sound like he’s playing a recording musician.
