Multiplatinum singer-songwriter Gavin DeGraw sits down with Troy Vollhoffer for an at-home episode of "On the Bus" for an in-depth conversation about growing up in the Catskills, his family’s passion for music, and how Patrick Swayze’s character in Dirty Dancing was (allegedly) based on his grandfather!

Gavin opens up about why supporting the troops is so personal to him and how the fear of regret motivates him as an artist. Gavin shares stories about being broke in New York (including the time he might have eaten a finger!), working with Colbie Callait, and details how the real Joe Davola–yes, THAT Joe Davola from Seinfeld–convinced him to use his hit single “I Don’t Want To Be” as the theme for One Tree Hill.

Then, Troy looks back on his favorite interviews of 2025 with Blake Shelton, Billy Bob Thornton, Gavin Adcock, and Old Dominion!

In 2026, Gavin hits the road with O.A.R. for the Three Decades Tour, which will also feature musical artists Lisa Loeb, KT Tunstall, and Phantom Planet.
