Speaker 1: Welcome to Taking a Walk Nashville with your hosts, singer

Speaker 2: Harrelson, tan Neil Arts. Thank you so much for being

27
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 2: on Taking a Walk Nashville today.

28
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 1: How are you doing, I'm good. How are you I'm good?

29
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for being here.

30
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 2: So I'm really excited for your upcoming single that's about

31
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 2: to drop, If Somebody Told Me You Were Dying drops

32
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 2: April tenth.

33
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 1: You state that this song came.

34
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 2: From a late night conversation when you realized you hadn't

35
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 2: seen your X in a while, which can be very

36
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 2: relatable because you know, many of us carry anger and

37
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:12,359
Speaker 2: feelings after a relationship, especially if it didn't end well.

38
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:16,359
Speaker 2: And you say that this song kind of sets you

39
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 2: at peace by hopefully never seeing them again. So were

40
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 2: you kind of in this mindset while writing this song, like.

41
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm okay if I don't, you.

42
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 2: Know, attend their funeral hypothetically speaking or see them again?

43
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 1: What was your mindset while writing this?

44
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 3: I feel like it was a bit of a wave

45
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 3: of emotions because like it's always kind of that like

46
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 3: jump scare feeling when you're like, well, what is like

47
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 3: when somebody asked me, because that's what happened. Somebody asked

48
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 3: me like, oh, have you seen them? And I was

49
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 3: like no, And I didn't know what they were getting

50
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 3: at by saying that either, you know, so then your

51
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,920
Speaker 3: mind kind of goes to, Okay, what does that mean?

52
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 3: And like what are they going to tell me or whatever?

53
00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:01,079
Speaker 3: And so honestly, I just like had really thought about

54
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 3: it in a while, and then that weird thought popped

55
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 3: into my head of like if somebody told me that,

56
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,359
Speaker 3: like if that was what their follow up text was,

57
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 3: like oh, you know, something has happened, Like I I

58
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 3: really for a second thought like, oh my gosh, Like

59
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 3: I wouldn't even I don't think I would even go

60
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:24,800
Speaker 3: to the funeral. Like if something, if somebody told me

61
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:28,359
Speaker 3: something awful, like I wouldn't even put myself in that situation.

62
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,080
Speaker 3: I wouldn't even put myself back in there because it

63
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 3: was so detrimental to my mental health and my health

64
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 3: as a human being that like no, I really wouldn't

65
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 3: I wouldn't even want to be in the in that

66
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 3: same room. So it was a thought that I thought

67
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 3: was maybe a little out there, but I wrote it

68
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:51,560
Speaker 3: down anyway, and I ended up having a writing session

69
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 3: with Lydia Sutherland and Joe Townge and she actually Lydia

70
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 3: had actually like started talking about this other idea of

71
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 3: like something else about dying, and I was like, well,

72
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 3: I have this other idea, and so we ended up

73
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 3: running with with my idea of if somebody told me

74
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 3: you were dying.

75
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 2: And you know, it's such a weird realization to think

76
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 2: about that, but so relatable because you know, if you've

77
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 2: gotten over someone, you've had your closure, then you don't

78
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 2: want to go back to them, no matter what the circumstances.

79
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 2: So I think it's very relatable. I love the production

80
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 2: of the song. Who did you work with in the

81
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:31,040
Speaker 2: studio for this song?

82
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 3: Todd Tren and Joe townsh did it together, which was

83
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 3: really cool because Joe had started a demo the day

84
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:44,719
Speaker 3: of and I just loved like everything that he was doing,

85
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 3: and I had put down my vocals that day as well,

86
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 3: and like the day that we wrote the song, we

87
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,919
Speaker 3: did a little demo and I ended up keeping like

88
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 3: pretty much all of my day of vocals, and so

89
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 3: we brought Todd in and he stacked, like helped me

90
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 3: stack a bunch of harmonies, and he was just really

91
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 3: great at putting this whole thing together. So yeah, it

92
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:12,839
Speaker 3: came out very cinematic and dramatic, which was kind of

93
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 3: what I was going for.

94
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, it definitely fits the mood everyone should go check

95
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 2: out if somebody told me you were dying. And speaking

96
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:25,159
Speaker 2: of other singles, your single somebody like that. It became

97
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 2: the first number one country song written, produced, and performed

98
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 2: by all females, which I love. How do you feel

99
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 2: about carrying that torch and what are your general thoughts

100
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 2: on women in country music trying to make it up

101
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,480
Speaker 2: the charts together? And what was it like working with

102
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 2: Alex Klein on the song?

103
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:46,600
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh.

104
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 3: Well, first of all, it was so so cool to

105
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 3: have that huge win with an all female team of

106
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 3: us all writing it together and Alex producing. That was

107
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 3: just really special in something that we didn't we had

108
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 3: kind of assumed had already happened to be totally honest, like,

109
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,839
Speaker 3: we knew that there weren't many females that had topped

110
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 3: the charts like recently, but I'd just assumed that, like,

111
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:15,160
Speaker 3: you know, a female producer had done that before. And

112
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 3: when we found out, I think we were like top

113
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 3: twenty and that was actually when like the record was

114
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 3: broken or something like that, and so it was just

115
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 3: really wild to find out that, you know, we made

116
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 3: history with that. But it was really special and obviously

117
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 3: I'd love to pass that on to the next all

118
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 3: female team for sure. And yeah, Alex was just incredible.

119
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 3: I mean, I still love working with her. I'm actually

120
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 3: going to write with her this afternoon. We just love

121
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 3: working together and she's a huge part of my sound

122
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 3: and how my music has evolved over the years.

123
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:53,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think a lot of people don't realize.

124
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 2: I think, you know, some listeners realize that many of

125
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 2: these songs are written by you know, maybe an all

126
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 2: female team, but not necessarily a female producer, which can

127
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 2: be a rarity and country music at least. So I

128
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 2: love that you had an all female team for this,

129
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 2: and I think, if I'm correct, it was the first

130
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 2: song since two thousand and seven that became a number

131
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 2: one for a Canadian female artist, correct.

132
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, which, yeah, that was pretty reviled too. I actually

133
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 3: got to hang out with it was Terry Clark. She

134
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 3: was the last one to have a number one down

135
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 3: here until me, which was so weird, but I was yeah,

136
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 3: just she was so sweet. She invited Alex and I

137
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 3: over to her place and we all hung out and

138
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 3: she was like, well, you dethroned me. We had some champagne,

139
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 3: but to celebrate just the success, because yeah, Alex and

140
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 3: Terry also worked together on some other things, so it

141
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 3: was very cool.

142
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 1: Cool, what a special moment. Yeah, So tell us about

143
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 1: what was the start.

144
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:01,720
Speaker 2: Of your career, like making that transition from Canada down

145
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 2: to Nashville to pursue country music.

146
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,680
Speaker 3: Oh wow, I mean it started so young for me.

147
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 3: You know, I loved country music growing up. I loved

148
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 3: all kind kinds of music though, like I really was

149
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 3: into like all pop music and everything like that. But

150
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 3: when I found out that people were really writing the

151
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 3: songs here in Nashville, that was something that piqued my interest.

152
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 3: Around the time I was like thirteen fourteen years old

153
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 3: and started actually writing my own songs. You know, I

154
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,079
Speaker 3: had always made stuff up, but I never actually wrote

155
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 3: it down, and so I got really interested in that.

156
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 3: And when I found out that, you know, some of

157
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 3: these major artists from Canada like Shnaia Twain, you know

158
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 3: they yes, they were from Canada and they started up there,

159
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,560
Speaker 3: but majority of their career was started down here in

160
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 3: the United States. That's kind of what I was looking at.

161
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 3: I was like, you know, I really want to be

162
00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 3: everywhere that I can be, and if I can be

163
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 3: in Nashville, really feel like I'm going to be.

164
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,080
Speaker 1: Able to just grow.

165
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,839
Speaker 3: And you know, I also had a big fear of

166
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:09,560
Speaker 3: just being like, you know, maybe maybe good in a

167
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,680
Speaker 3: small town, but maybe not anywhere else. And so I

168
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 3: really wanted to kind of push myself and get to Nashville.

169
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 3: So I think I was fifteen when I made my

170
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 3: first trip here, and yeah, I was actually like found

171
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 3: on my YouTube channel by a manager and he called

172
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,679
Speaker 3: my parents and that's how I ended up, you know,

173
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 3: coming to Nashville for the first time and co writing

174
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 3: for the first time.

175
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 2: Oh wow, did you move down here with your family

176
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,080
Speaker 2: or were you kind of separated from your family making

177
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:42,080
Speaker 2: the trips.

178
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 3: Yeah. I was kind of making like two week trips

179
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 3: as often as I could with my mom, just my

180
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 3: mom coming with me because I have three other siblings,

181
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:55,560
Speaker 3: so I wasn't about to uproot their lives for my

182
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 3: crazy dreams. But yeah, so it was a lot of

183
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,440
Speaker 3: back and forth until I turned twenty one. I ended

184
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 3: up signing a publishing deal, and you know, if you're

185
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 3: from Canada, you gotta get visa and do all of

186
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:12,439
Speaker 3: that stuff. So that was a whole process to actually

187
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 3: be able to get down to Nashville.

188
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 1: Yeah. Do you still go back to Canada A lot?

189
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 1: I do?

190
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:20,680
Speaker 3: Yeah. Actually, I was talking to my grandma this morning.

191
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,079
Speaker 3: She was like, when are you coming back? We mee

192
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,199
Speaker 3: you here, and I'm like, oh, I try to make

193
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:28,920
Speaker 3: it back at least twice a year. I usually come

194
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:32,440
Speaker 3: home at some point during the summer, Labor Day weekend

195
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 3: kind of thing, and then Christmas. But if I ever

196
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 3: have shows like close by, I'm always like, okay, we

197
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 3: need to at least make a stop.

198
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 1: Yeah.

199
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 2: It are so many different country music festivals in Canada,

200
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 2: so I'm sure you're up there for gigs a lot.

201
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:49,439
Speaker 3: Oh yeah.

202
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 2: Well, speaking of some of your other music, you also

203
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 2: recently released the song Don't Ruin Flowers. As you work

204
00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 2: on recording your next album, what does the next chapter

205
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:02,680
Speaker 2: look like for you with a new album.

206
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 3: Well, I have been writing for it for quite a while,

207
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 3: and I feel like the songs have been evolving and

208
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 3: changing throughout this entire process, so it's been kind of

209
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 3: interesting to nail down exactly what this project is going

210
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 3: to be. But it has definitely taken the path of

211
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 3: like just kind of exploring but also going back to

212
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 3: my roots quite a bit with just how I'm approaching

213
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 3: songwriting and everything like that. So this will be a

214
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 3: lot more of songs like Don't Room Flowers and if

215
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 3: Somebody told Me You Were Dying, and then there was

216
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 3: a previous song called Unbecoming, and so it's all of

217
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 3: those different things all in one, and as I kind

218
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 3: of transition from breakup songs into kind of where I

219
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,680
Speaker 3: am in my life now, as you can see, there's

220
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 3: a smile on my face, so I'm obviously not the

221
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,559
Speaker 3: breakup phase anymore, and I'm just writing a lot of

222
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:04,560
Speaker 3: happy stuff right now. So it's fun to kind of

223
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,280
Speaker 3: eventually put this together all into an album and people

224
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,680
Speaker 3: will be able to see exactly what I lived through.

225
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:12,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, I can't wait to hear it.

226
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 2: And what I've already heard, there's definitely a lot of

227
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:19,319
Speaker 2: reflection going on, and I think it's very beautiful and relatable.

228
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,679
Speaker 2: And I love the music video for Don't Ruin Flowers.

229
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 2: You have like all sorts of flowers, and the video

230
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:29,200
Speaker 2: looks like you were in like a garden for most

231
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 2: of it.

232
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:34,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, someone that is literally somebody's house. Somebody had a

233
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 3: beautiful greenhouse out in their front yard and so we

234
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 3: filmed the majority of it there. And yeah, I was

235
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:48,720
Speaker 3: so cut up from the roast thorns and stuff like

236
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 3: that after video because I was trying to walk through

237
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:53,960
Speaker 3: and be all whimsical and meanwhile I'm getting all scraped up.

238
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 3: But yeah, it was a beautiful place to shoot and

239
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 3: I think it just kind of brought that love of

240
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 3: flowers really to life.

241
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,680
Speaker 1: So yeah, there's a moment.

242
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 2: Even though you said you were getting cut up by thorns,

243
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 2: there was a really cool moment in the video where

244
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:11,199
Speaker 2: this butterfly lands on your finger. I was like, Oh,

245
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,560
Speaker 2: that's so perfect that that happened.

246
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 3: That was wild. I was like, I just tried to

247
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 3: stay focused and I was like, I hope the cameras

248
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 3: are rolling.

249
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:20,839
Speaker 1: I just kept going with it.

250
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,480
Speaker 3: I was like, there's no way to recreate.

251
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 2: That, right, Yeah, such a perfect moment. So Tiniel, I

252
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:31,199
Speaker 2: remember like back when I would actually watch The Bachelor.

253
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,440
Speaker 2: You were asked, you know, three times to perform on

254
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 2: the TV show The Bachelor. Do you think when you

255
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,839
Speaker 2: were asked to perform on it, do you think Bachelor

256
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 2: Nation just kind of resonated with your music?

257
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:49,200
Speaker 3: I honestly think so, which was really interesting to me

258
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 3: because even in one of the episodes, I played a

259
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 3: song called I Hate This, which is we had filmed

260
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:58,080
Speaker 3: a love song and that song because it was my

261
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,200
Speaker 3: next song that was coming out, and it was so

262
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 3: interesting to see, you know, during an episode where these

263
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 3: people are supposed to be falling in love, they play

264
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 3: this breakup song and Bachelor Nation just attaches themselves to this,

265
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 3: and I was like, I think it was just a

266
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:19,800
Speaker 3: good look at you know how people watching a TV

267
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 3: show like that, like we're all hopeless romantics, you know,

268
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 3: we just want that to work, and when it doesn't,

269
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 3: you know, we're really heartbroken. And so that I think

270
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 3: that's why the song I Hate This really took off

271
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 3: and it's still one of my best streaming songs. So

272
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 3: I think they they've continued to love my slow, sad songs.

273
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, how did that work out?

274
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 2: Did you just get like a call like last minute

275
00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:46,960
Speaker 2: or did you know like pretty advance ahead of time

276
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 2: that you were going to be on it?

277
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 3: Well, I knew that I had kind of made like

278
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 3: a list of dream things that I had wanted to do,

279
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:57,480
Speaker 3: so I knew that my team was kind of like

280
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 3: working on some of those angles and things like that,

281
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:04,640
Speaker 3: and so they happened to have a contact and reached

282
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 3: out to see if there was an opportunity for me,

283
00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 3: and they heard the music, and yeah, I ended up

284
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 3: on the show. So it was just a very cool

285
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 3: way of everything coming together. And then of course you

286
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 3: film and then it doesn't come out for months, so

287
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 3: it was a very hard secret key, right. Yeah.

288
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 2: Well, in addition to TV performances, you just recently toured

289
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:33,520
Speaker 2: with Luke Bryan and Walker Hayes. Can we look forward

290
00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:35,480
Speaker 2: to more shows from you this year?

291
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 3: Yes? I hope so. I mean we're kind of working

292
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 3: on some stuff right now, so everybody will have to

293
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 3: stay tuned, but yes, I hope so, because I really

294
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 3: love getting to perform these songs live and getting to

295
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 3: have the real connection. You know, so much of my

296
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 3: you know, my song going number one and everything was

297
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 3: during a time where we couldn't all be together in

298
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 3: the same room, so you know, so I just you know,

299
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 3: dying for those opportunities to be in front of people

300
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 3: in real life. So hopefully that'll happen soon.

301
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, we will stay tuned for that and your upcoming single,

302
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 2: upcoming album to Neil, My last question for you today

303
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 2: something I always ask my guest. We are on taking

304
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 2: a walk in Nashville. So if you could take a

305
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 2: walk with anyone in Nashville, where would you take that

306
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 2: walk and who would you take that walk with?

307
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 3: Wait? Are they alive or are they dead?

308
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 2: It it doesn't matter, they could be either orse so

309
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 2: people have said alive or dead people.

310
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:38,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I don't really know. I would probably

311
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:44,520
Speaker 3: say someone like Patsy Kline. I would probably want to

312
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 3: take a walk with her. And because I'm fascinated by

313
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 3: how secretive some people's lives were back then versus how

314
00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:57,800
Speaker 3: they are now, I would love to ask some questions

315
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:02,400

320
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:17,680
Speaker 3: up and down music row. I would probably just go
