Nashville Singer/Songwriter/Bartender To Compete On 'The Bachelorette'

A Nashville singer/songwriter/bartender is one of 31 men who will hope to receive a rose each week from Rachel Lindsay in the latest version of ABC's wildly popular "The Bachelorette."

The cast for the 13th season of the show was revealed Wednesday and includes Lee Garrett, 30, a University of Florida graduate who sings tunes and slings booze in the Music City.

On his official "Bachelorette" bio on ABC's website, Garrett says he has a horseshoe tattooed on his left arm and admires his Mamaw, who lived during The Great Depression.

Were he to be trapped upon the proverbial deserted island, Garrett says he'd need "A hook, the right girl and a fire source" to survive and that he would not tolerate it if his island included "Sand gnats!"

Garrett, who used seven exclamation points in answering the nine-question survey, claims to be a "'pleaser' under wraps" who has played "nearly every venue" in Music City.

"The Bachelorette" premieres Monday at 8 p.m. Central on ABC.
