1
00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:08,280
Speaker 1: Hey guys, a special bring It All Back episode from

2
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:11,000
Speaker 1: So This Is to Neil Arts. She came by the house.

3
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:13,960
Speaker 1: She brought her guitar, which people don't normally do for this.

4
00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:16,560
Speaker 1: We were super pumped she did and just got to

5
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:19,759
Speaker 1: know her. And at this point she hadn't had a

6
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 1: hit yet. You know, we were talking about in last

7
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:25,480
Speaker 1: Friday's episode of Bobby Cast where she may break a

8
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:29,720
Speaker 1: record soon enough. Her song Somebody Like That has cracked

9
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:31,560
Speaker 1: the top ten on the Country Airplay chart, which is

10
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 1: a big deal. It took her fifty eight weeks to

11
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 1: get there. Think about that. We talked to her in

12
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:42,839
Speaker 1: like a hundred weeks agoin and so that this song

13
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 1: started forty I mean almost a year after we talked

14
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 1: to her like this is in the early early to

15
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 1: Neil Arts time. But that set the record for the

16
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:54,000
Speaker 1: longest climb to top ten for a solo female artist.

17
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:55,960
Speaker 1: Who knows if she breaks the all time record, I

18
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 1: don't they keep going with this song. But I wanted

19
00:00:58,240 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 1: to play this interview for you guys in case you

20
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 1: missed it way back then, eighty episodes ago, because that's

21
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 1: a long time ago, A long time. That's over a

22
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 1: year on this feed that probably people are probably aren't

23
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 1: scrolling back that far to here. So here is Taniel Arts.

24
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:10,479
Speaker 1: I hope you take some time get to know her.

25
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,120
Speaker 1: Remember this is before she had any success or any fame. Really,

26
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 1: she'd been on The Bachelor a couple of times, not

27
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 1: as a contestant, but as a performer. Um, so enjoy this.

28
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 1: This is Tenniel Arts from the house here on the

29
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 1: Bobby Cast. Here we go episode two or three with

30
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 1: tannil Arts. How are you hey? I'm good? How are

31
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 1: you good? All right? Pretty good? I was looking at

32
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 1: your instagram. You have a lot of followers. Where did that?

33
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 1: What's the deal? Where'd that come from? I don't know.

34
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 1: I mean I've been on social media for a really

35
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,880
Speaker 1: long time and on YouTube, and yeah, I've just been

36
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 1: like really trying to keep up the online presence. I

37
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 1: was doing a little deep dive about you and I

38
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 1: had seen that you were on The Bachelor twice, not

39
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 1: as a contestant, although that'd be a good story here,

40
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 1: but you played to why how do you how do

41
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 1: you land getting on the Bachelor? To play? Well? My

42
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 1: manager had been sending my music into them for a

43
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: really long time and they just came across some of

44
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 1: my music that they loved. The first song was called

45
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 1: Moment of Weakness, and it pretty much sounded like we

46
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 1: had written it for the show. So it worked out

47
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 1: really well and I performed on one on one date?

48
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 1: Could you remember who it was? Um? It was Ari

49
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 1: and Chelsea? Okay, so, Mike, do you know who Ari is?

50
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 1: I do? Okay, help me out. Good looking dude. I

51
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 1: think it's like kind of great here right? Oh yeah, okay,

52
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: So I got it. And that was the season. I

53
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,080
Speaker 1: don't really watch the show. I don't hate people to do.

54
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 1: By the way, don't get mad at me. Bachelor Nation.

55
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 1: He's the one that was like he broke up with

56
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:33,519
Speaker 1: the girl at the end of the season. Yeah, he

57
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,079
Speaker 1: makes someone and then broke up with her and then

58
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 1: picked the like second place girl. Like now that I

59
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 1: can admire anyone that kind of is not status quo

60
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 1: on that show. I like, okay, so you you played

61
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 1: for him and Chelsea? Did they stay together? Was it

62
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,079
Speaker 1: your song? Was that the reason they didn't stay together? Don't?

63
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,959
Speaker 1: I hope not? No, she left she had a kid,

64
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:55,640
Speaker 1: so she wanted she had a kid on the show,

65
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: not on the show. But I think she wanted to

66
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 1: get back to her her son, so I think she

67
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,359
Speaker 1: ended up leaving the show. So tell me what that's

68
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,640
Speaker 1: like them playing do you have played over and over

69
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,679
Speaker 1: and over again for the cameras. Yeah, we play it

70
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,520
Speaker 1: a few times. Not it's like definitely a surprise for

71
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 1: the girl. I think the bachelor knows that this is

72
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: going down because I think he has like a hand

73
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,919
Speaker 1: in picking the dates. But uh, the girl was completely

74
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 1: surprised when she walked in and we played the song

75
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,360
Speaker 1: a couple of times for them to get their shots

76
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: and everything. But then we play it again multiple times,

77
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 1: and that makes sense so they can shoot you. Yeah,

78
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: they can get close ups and stuff. But it was

79
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: really awkward because nobody told me if I should look

80
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: at the cameras or not. So I just found myself

81
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 1: staring at the couple dancing and making out, and it

82
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 1: was so awkward. I didn't not know what to do.

83
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 1: It was Yeah, that was that. But so let me

84
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: hear some of this moment of weakness and I'm gonna

85
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 1: imagine a couple of dancing right that is quite a

86
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 1: bachelor song. Yeah, because you're based be begging them to

87
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 1: make out right there, you're playing that song, like, all right,

88
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: have your moment weakness, right, You're on camera, so we

89
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 1: can document it. Okay, So you go on the show

90
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 1: and I would imagine, because I've had some friends go

91
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 1: on that show and play, there's a nice pop with

92
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 1: your music to day after it airs. Oh yeah, so

93
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 1: that was pretty cool, right, that was really cool. That

94
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 1: had a huge part to do with my social media

95
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 1: and just my music getting out there in general. So

96
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:26,039
Speaker 1: but then you go back again. Yeah, So then they're like, hey,

97
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: you riveted our couple so much, we want you to

98
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,479
Speaker 1: bring that back for another couple. Is that what happened

99
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 1: the next time? I don't know. They're just like they

100
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 1: became a fan of my music and they wanted to

101
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 1: help me out as a new artist. And I think

102
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,479
Speaker 1: it's really cool and kind of unexpected to be a

103
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 1: part of something like The Bachelor, Like you wouldn't think

104
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 1: that's a great way to promote your music, but it

105
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 1: kind of is. I mean, there's a lot of people

106
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,479
Speaker 1: that watch that show and it's like the perfect age

107
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,599
Speaker 1: for my music. So they asked me to come back.

108
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,280
Speaker 1: So you go back and then you play for this

109
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 1: one was Colton and a Lease Okay. Now, if I

110
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,479
Speaker 1: remember they're not together, you're over too. I just telling

111
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:02,599
Speaker 1: you your success right on this show is not good

112
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 1: for the couple stand together. I've played really early on

113
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,359
Speaker 1: in the show, so I feel like, you know, you

114
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: never know what's going to happen at that point. So

115
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 1: Colton and Elie and what are they doing? Like, yeah,

116
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 1: it was in a big theater in l A. So

117
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: there was actually an audience there. Okay, so a little

118
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: more natural way. So you're playing in a theater and

119
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 1: how does that And part of me for not knowing this,

120
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 1: how did they set that up? Do they fake like

121
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 1: they're walking in on a show or they're both big

122
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 1: Tannil Arts fans? Yeah, sometimes they do it like that,

123
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:37,840
Speaker 1: not that they'd be faking it, but I'm gonna work.

124
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 1: I do a lot of TV two and we fake

125
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,719
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff, not not originally, but in order

126
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:44,159
Speaker 1: to redo it again and again and again, we have

127
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,559
Speaker 1: to sometimes go all right, let's shoot this again. Yeah,

128
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,479
Speaker 1: So they walk in like, oh, yeah, we're big fans

129
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 1: of Tannil Arts. Let's go Is that what it? Yeah?

130
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,159
Speaker 1: Basically that's what that's what happened. It was like a

131
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,280
Speaker 1: surprise for the girl and everything, but she ended up

132
00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,480
Speaker 1: messaging me like right after that episode and was like,

133
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,359
Speaker 1: I'm gonna remember that night forever. I love your music.

134
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 1: So she definitely like dove into my music after that,

135
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 1: and so and then there you have it too. We

136
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 1: need one more that you gotta get on a successful

137
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 1: You gotta get on a couple of the stays together.

138
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 1: Right right now, you're the Clayton Kershaw of of the

139
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 1: Bachelor's just not working out for you so far. That's

140
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:20,720
Speaker 1: pretty cool that they brought you back. And what song

141
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 1: did you do there? Well? It ended up being a

142
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 1: song called I Hate This, which was a breakup song

143
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:28,719
Speaker 1: which you predicted. What was I do? I like that

144
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 1: song this? I hate the song I've programmed into the

145
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:32,480
Speaker 1: heart the women of by our country show. This is

146
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 1: a good one. Not that the other one wasn't. I

147
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 1: just had never heard it. I liked this one a lot.

148
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:46,839
Speaker 1: When you hear your own music, you kind of bob

149
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:48,120
Speaker 1: your head and you still do you like listen to

150
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 1: your own music? I do, yeah, because when when we

151
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: played that, I felt like you kind of felt that

152
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 1: a little bit. Yeah. I immediately started thinking about when

153
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 1: I like wrote it and who it's about, And yeah,

154
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,599
Speaker 1: I go there every time. So you wrote that. Okay, good,

155
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 1: it's a perfect segue into this. We have a lot

156
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 1: of songwriters that come on the show, which you are

157
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,680
Speaker 1: obviously um and and they talk about songs. So let's

158
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 1: talk about this song specifically. How long ago did you

159
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 1: write it? It would have been like a year and

160
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 1: a half ago. Oh still pretty fresh? Yeah, pretty new.

161
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 1: And it's funny because when I had originally written it,

162
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 1: I wasn't going through a breakup or anything like. I

163
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 1: was kind of imagining what that would be like and everything,

164
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 1: and then I went through a breakup and that song

165
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 1: it was so hard to go out and sing that

166
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 1: song at every show. So a song that you didn't

167
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 1: write about your breakup ended up being hard to sing

168
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 1: because later on you went through a breakup. Yeah, that's

169
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 1: kind of Mike. We've never heard a story like that, right, Like,

170
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 1: they write a song and then it comes back into

171
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 1: their lives about their lives the breakup, and then it's

172
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 1: hard to think about that. But yeah, not the only way.

173
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 1: You're like Carly when she would come in, like yew,

174
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 1: I wrote every little thing, and you know, I would

175
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,280
Speaker 1: play and think about the breakup every time, but you

176
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: didn't break up with the song. It just came back

177
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 1: to haunt you later. It did. Interesting, So you write

178
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 1: this song and you did you write it about the

179
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 1: boyfriend you had at the time, and at least, like,

180
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: did you predict predicting the breakup? Aren't you? It wasn't

181
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 1: that far before we ended up breaking up, So I

182
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: think that I had a little bit of that in

183
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:12,320
Speaker 1: my mind. But I always try to like take from

184
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 1: personal experiences or try to imagine what it would be

185
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 1: like if I was going through that. Wrote You wrote

186
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 1: this with the guy name Adam Wheeler, So you guys

187
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 1: hop in a room together, and how does that work

188
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 1: with you? You go, hey, I got this idea, I'm

189
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 1: probably gonna break up with the dude, Like, how does

190
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:32,080
Speaker 1: that work? I didn't say, yeah, no, it was. I

191
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 1: had written a lot with him around that same like

192
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 1: time period, so we knew what was going on in

193
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 1: each other's lives and and he knew that things were

194
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 1: like a little bit rocky in my relationship, and he

195
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 1: had talked about some of his past relationships and we

196
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 1: really just kind of dove into it and the song.

197
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 1: It's weird because the song isn't really about like a breakup.

198
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 1: It's about that time period right after you break up

199
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:56,960
Speaker 1: where you don't know if you're going to end up

200
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 1: getting back together or if you're just going to actually

201
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:00,679
Speaker 1: stay broken up. Because so I feel like there's a

202
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 1: little bit of hope during that time where you still

203
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 1: love that person and you still think maybe you know,

204
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 1: something might work out, but then you know eventually you

205
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:10,400
Speaker 1: have to deal with the fact that okay, maybe it

206
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,600
Speaker 1: really is over. Let's talk about that for a second

207
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 1: away from music. Like most times, let's still a little

208
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 1: public service announcement. It doesn't work out. If you're gonna

209
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,200
Speaker 1: break up, it doesn't work. I'll tell you from my experience,

210
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,199
Speaker 1: you feel like you know I might work out, let's

211
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,839
Speaker 1: give it another try. But I'm gonna say probably of

212
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:31,079
Speaker 1: the time, if you break up and you're like, m,

213
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 1: maybe we should give it a try, because it could

214
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,200
Speaker 1: it's not going yeah, because I think once you break up,

215
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 1: you think that those those things will maybe like work

216
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 1: themselves out, and then when you get back together it'll

217
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 1: just be like a fresh start. But it's not. There's

218
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 1: still like all of those things that you all of

219
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:47,679
Speaker 1: those issues. I guess that you had before. You know

220
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 1: what you should do. This is maybe a lesson for

221
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,560
Speaker 1: you, you you little younger than I am, or anyone watching

222
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 1: this or listening to this. If you're struggling in your

223
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 1: relationship and you don't know really what to do to

224
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,679
Speaker 1: make it work. Have a baby. Oh my gosh, what

225
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 1: do you say? That's a go? I just have a baby.

226
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 1: Then you're stuck and you have to make it work. Problem. Yeah,

227
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:12,560
Speaker 1: I would say, yeah, fixes fixes all the problems. You

228
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 1: don't agree with that, Um, why don't we do somebody

229
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 1: like that? Which is this is the single? Now it is? Okay?

230
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:37,440
Speaker 1: Here is somebody like that? All right? Tell me about

231
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 1: this one? All right? Well, I wrote this one after

232
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 1: writing a ton of breakup songs. I was like, I'm done, Like,

233
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 1: I'm done writing these breakup songs. I want to start

234
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 1: looking for somebody again. I want to, you know, start

235
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,680
Speaker 1: putting myself out there. So I got in the writing

236
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:56,199
Speaker 1: room with Alex Klein and Allison Belts and we were

237
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 1: just kind of reflecting on relationships that we had seen

238
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 1: a really well, like looking at our parents, looking at

239
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,599
Speaker 1: our grandparents, you know, just kind of those relationships that

240
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:09,680
Speaker 1: we idolized as kids and looked up to. And you know,

241
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,199
Speaker 1: I have a lot of great relationships in my life,

242
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,559
Speaker 1: and and I feel like we just looked back on,

243
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 1: you know, maybe love that we had or love that

244
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,320
Speaker 1: went really well, love that went bad, and just kind

245
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,560
Speaker 1: of looking for the right kind of love this time

246
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 1: and not settling until we find it. And how long

247
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 1: would you write this song? This one would have been

248
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 1: about six months ago? And did you predict the future?

249
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 1: Much like you predicted the demise of the Bachelor? You'd

250
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 1: make this song? And did somebody like that come along

251
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 1: predicted the future? What you need to do? You need

252
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:47,480
Speaker 1: to write more song predicting, predicting future songs. Yeah, my

253
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 1: therapist says, you got to like see the good stuff,

254
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 1: But then I do and it never happens, so then

255
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 1: I start seeing the bad stuff again. You have an accent,

256
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 1: which is interesting, not so much of a Canadian one

257
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 1: a little bit. I dated a Canadian girl for a

258
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 1: long time, so I'm very experienced with the Canadian talk.

259
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:11,680
Speaker 1: And your your your little hybrid English French a type language.

260
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: But it's a little country accent too. Yeah, So what like,

261
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 1: what tell me about like a town you grew up in?

262
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 1: I grew up in a really small town in Saskatchewan

263
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 1: in Canada, and my dad's a wheat farmer, so we

264
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 1: grew up like in the small town. But then we

265
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,720
Speaker 1: also had the family farm, so I spent a lot

266
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,559
Speaker 1: of time out there. And because a wheat farmer, huh,

267
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:36,440
Speaker 1: what is that entail day to day? I mean, for

268
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 1: us being in Canada, there's like a very short sound

269
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,439
Speaker 1: like a week right where it's warm enough to grow anything. Yeah,

270
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,960
Speaker 1: I mean it pretty much starts like end of May June,

271
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 1: and harvest time is lake September October. So is it

272
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 1: vacat is it like snow vacation? They're all the rest

273
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:51,800
Speaker 1: of the year as a wheat farmer. Well, my dad

274
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:55,680
Speaker 1: had another job that he worked that whole time as well. Um,

275
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 1: but yeah, I guess for most people or they've got

276
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 1: like cattle or something, but we don't we eat farmer

277
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 1: in Canada. I didn't think about that. Like when I

278
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,520
Speaker 1: flow to Toronto Wish by the way, I don't know

279
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 1: what's in the water up there, but you guys are

280
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,600
Speaker 1: way too nice and I enjoy it. I enjoy it.

281
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 1: But even with my ex girlfriends, she's way too nice.

282
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 1: And now we'll be like, why are you being so

283
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:17,559
Speaker 1: nice to me all the time? But it was just

284
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,440
Speaker 1: a natural. It was just like in you guys blood.

285
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:21,360
Speaker 1: And I didn't really realize that until I went to

286
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 1: Toronto and people would just like stop on the road

287
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:25,840
Speaker 1: and talk to me. And this is Toronto, to which

288
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 1: is very metropolitan by the way, It really close to

289
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:29,840
Speaker 1: New York, and you would think would be a little

290
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:33,959
Speaker 1: different than than you know, Saskatchewan or um Vancouver or

291
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:35,440
Speaker 1: a lot of these other places that I was feeling with.

292
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 1: But people were just like, hey, sir, and I'll be like,

293
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 1: what's up? Would you like a dollar? Not asking for

294
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 1: the homeless. People were offering me money in Canada. It

295
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 1: was so different than here in the States. Were like,

296
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:46,840
Speaker 1: gonna get a dollar? They were like, so I don't

297
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 1: how much, but why don't you have my last dollar?

298
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 1: Canadians are nuts, man, It's awesome. So um. It was

299
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 1: my point with all that might really nice. Yeah, I

300
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 1: feel like I was onto something there, but so your dad,

301
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:00,559
Speaker 1: oh but but oh my point is I'll flying in

302
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 1: and I would see golf courses in Canada and I

303
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 1: was like, what week do you get to play golf here?

304
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:11,280
Speaker 1: It's so cold all the time. And so you're do

305
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,959
Speaker 1: you have tractors? Yeah? Okay? And how big was his

306
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 1: wheat farm? Um? People always ask me this, and I

307
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,800

00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,840
Speaker 1: him watching and listening to my YouTube videos. I'm like,

387
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,200
Speaker 1: dadham right here, super supportive dad. Yeah. So what about

388
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 1: your mom? They still together? Yeah? Okay, and what does

389
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,640
Speaker 1: she do? She used to work as a lab tech

390
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:14,800
Speaker 1: in the hospital, but she is was a stay at

391
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,400
Speaker 1: home mom from my entire life a lab tech like needles,

392
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 1: you know. I had a cousin once who was training

393
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 1: to be a lab tech and she said, Hey, I

394
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 1: need to borrow you for needle practice. And I was like,

395
00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:27,639
Speaker 1: first of all, it's not gonna happen. I don't do

396
00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:29,320
Speaker 1: needles very well. That she was like, I need to

397
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:31,399
Speaker 1: do needles in your knuckles because apparently they have to

398
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,080
Speaker 1: learn if they can't get it from your arm, they

399
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,679
Speaker 1: have to draw it from your knuckles. And so I

400
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 1: don't do I didn't let her do it, obviously, but

401
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:39,680
Speaker 1: I didn't know you could draw needle from knuckles either.

402
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,719
Speaker 1: Did your mom draw black from people? She did? Yeah,

403
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,639
Speaker 1: if you were sick, could she help you, like giving

404
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:49,200
Speaker 1: you I V S or medicine. She never did any

405
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 1: of that stuff, but I mean she had medical knowledge,

406
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,919
Speaker 1: so she I mean, she would help us out as

407
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 1: much as she could. All Right, So you moved to

408
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:59,159
Speaker 1: the States when four years ago you've only been here

409
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,680
Speaker 1: four years. So okay, so do you do the whole

410
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:03,840
Speaker 1: Canada thing first, where you're you know, you like, I'm

411
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:05,959
Speaker 1: gonna be a star in Canada? Not really. I mean

412
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 1: I was a little bit involved in like the Canadian

413
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:12,440
Speaker 1: country music industry up there, um, and they had a

414
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,080
Speaker 1: really cool program that I was a part of that

415
00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 1: was like the Discovery program where they help you out,

416
00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:19,640
Speaker 1: give you the connections and everything. But I always knew

417
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 1: that I wanted to be in Nashville. I made my

418
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:24,359
Speaker 1: first trip. It was it's almost exactly ten years ago

419
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,120
Speaker 1: when I first came here to you know, write and

420
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:29,879
Speaker 1: get involved in everything. So I always had my site

421
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 1: set on Nashville, and so I didn't spend a ton

422
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:36,240
Speaker 1: of time focusing on on the Canadian scene. So what

423
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,320
Speaker 1: was it for you that made you go I gotta

424
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:42,199
Speaker 1: move down there. I think I had just seen so

425
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 1: many people. It's just such a community, like Canada is

426
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 1: so spread out. I wish they had a place that

427
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,920
Speaker 1: everybody could go and write with each other because there's

428
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 1: really there's nothing. I mean, it's everybody's so spread out.

429
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,359
Speaker 1: So I knew that Nashville was just such a community.

430
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,159
Speaker 1: I knew that some of my favorite songwriters, some of

431
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,440
Speaker 1: my favorite artists. That's what they did. They once they could,

432
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,840
Speaker 1: they moved to Nashville and they made their connections and

433
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 1: they just started building it from the ground up. And

434
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 1: that's what I wanted to do. So you tell your

435
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:15,880
Speaker 1: parents what. Well, the first time I actually came down,

436
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 1: I was fourteen or fifteen, and I had just been

437
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 1: putting up YouTube videos and stuff and a manager called

438
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:25,159
Speaker 1: our house and he was like, Hey, I want to

439
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:26,920
Speaker 1: bring you to Nashville and I want to see if

440
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,080
Speaker 1: you know you work well with this girl, because he

441
00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 1: was proposing me to be in this duo. So what

442
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 1: you got? Justin Bieber a little bit, They see you

443
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 1: in a little bit as a kid, someone says you

444
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 1: on YouTube and says, let's do it that. I bet

445
00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 1: that would be creepy to me that I'll be like, really,

446
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,399
Speaker 1: what's happening here? Yeah? I mean, oh, my dad was

447
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,199
Speaker 1: super skeptical about it. My mom was excited because I

448
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 1: was excited, but yeah, it was definitely kind of like

449
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:50,280
Speaker 1: a well, let's just go see what happens, Like let's

450
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:52,720
Speaker 1: me say about it, but yeah, let's go see what happens.

451
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:56,400
Speaker 1: And it was so They always knew that that's where

452
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,639
Speaker 1: I wanted to go, so they were supportive of it.

453
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:00,639
Speaker 1: And when I moved, they were like, oh yeah, go

454
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 1: for it. So what happened with that duo? It just

455
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 1: didn't work out. Our music ideas were so different and

456
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 1: it was kind of like a Maddie and Tae thing before,

457
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,959
Speaker 1: like pretty much right before Maddie and te So, well,

458
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 1: who was the girl? Is she around? Um? I think

459
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 1: she's still say it? We thought so, she's still in town.

460
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:24,800
Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think she went to college somewhere.

461
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 1: Has hated each other. Huh. We didn't get along. Oh,

462
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 1: I was just kidding, but yeah, we didn't get along. Oh,

463
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 1: Mike and I don't get along. Yeah, we just kind

464
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,240
Speaker 1: of stare and okay, so you come and you go. Okay,

465
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 1: well Nashville will want to be so you go back home.

466
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,280
Speaker 1: Did you finish school? I did? I finished high school? Okay,

467
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 1: and then you go. As soon as I'm done, I'm

468
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,520
Speaker 1: out of here. And so when did you actually pack

469
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 1: up and moved down. I stayed for just like a

470
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 1: couple of years, just saving up. I still lived with

471
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,320
Speaker 1: my parents and everything. And yeah, I was twenty one

472
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,480
Speaker 1: when I moved down the first time I had ever

473
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,960
Speaker 1: lived on my own, got a one bedroom apartment, the

474
00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 1: whole thing. Who moved with you? My mom in a

475
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:03,560
Speaker 1: What tell me the story? You get int the U

476
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:07,040
Speaker 1: haul with the trailer. We we did the drive twice.

477
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:09,719
Speaker 1: The first time we took her car and just loaded

478
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,400
Speaker 1: it up and drove as much as we could down

479
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 1: just to get moved in, and then I ended up

480
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:17,879
Speaker 1: driving back again. I can't really remember why that happened,

481
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 1: but I took I have like a little yellow Pontiac

482
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 1: G five from when I was like sixteen, and we

483
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:27,840
Speaker 1: loaded that thing up and I still have that car.

484
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,399
Speaker 1: We drove it all the way down here, and my

485
00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:32,880
Speaker 1: mom stayed for about a week to just get me settled,

486
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:34,960
Speaker 1: and then she hopped on a plane and left me

487
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:38,320
Speaker 1: by myself. What's the drive? Full? Twenty five hours of

488
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:41,160
Speaker 1: driving still took us about two days. Do you still

489
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,040
Speaker 1: have that car? At least? Do you still drive that car?

490
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:48,400
Speaker 1: With this millionaire record deal, you should have like Mercedes?

491
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:50,679
Speaker 1: You know, talk about that for a second, because that

492
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: is a quite the misconception because you signed a record

493
00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:59,040
Speaker 1: and listen, when I signed my record deal, I actually

494
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:01,400
Speaker 1: think I went in the hole. I think I lost money.

495
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,160
Speaker 1: And people think when you sign a deal that it's

496
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:05,840
Speaker 1: just like a whole bunch of money given to you.

497
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 1: Um you're a bit different than I am. You're better

498
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:12,440
Speaker 1: tell me what happens when you sign a deal. Well,

499
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:18,240
Speaker 1: for me, my deal was pretty unique because my publisher, Um,

500
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,120
Speaker 1: so I had been living off of, you know, being

501
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 1: a songwriter and sign a publishing deal first, and about

502
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 1: halfway through that first year, my publisher was like, we

503
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 1: should record this stuff on you. He knew that I

504
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,880
Speaker 1: wanted to be an artist, and so he really started

505
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,200
Speaker 1: just helping me out with all of that stuff, which

506
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:38,680
Speaker 1: was really really cool, and I ended up signing kind

507
00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:42,159
Speaker 1: of he created a label, I guess for me to

508
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:45,960
Speaker 1: release music, and so when I ended up signing with

509
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,679
Speaker 1: Reviver like that, all still kind of stayed together. So

510
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,639
Speaker 1: not much really changed for me other than having you know,

511
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,680
Speaker 1: all of the label and everything. But yeah, I know,

512
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 1: it's not like you're just like handed a bunch of

513
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,920
Speaker 1: money and like, yeah, you're as signed artist now. Mostly

514
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 1: they go, we're gonna pay for you to do things,

515
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:05,920
Speaker 1: and even then you got to pay us back. Yeah,

516
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:10,359
Speaker 1: that's really unless you're a major artist switching labels and

517
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:13,399
Speaker 1: they're trying to woo you. They're going, Okay, we're now

518
00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:14,879
Speaker 1: going to pay for you to make a record, and

519
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:16,359
Speaker 1: we're gonna pay for you to travel and do what

520
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:19,440
Speaker 1: they call radio tour, but you will pay us back

521
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:21,640
Speaker 1: or we would drop you. One of the two things

522
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 1: will happen. And so it sounds sounds amazing, doesn't it.

523
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 1: But it is cool to actually get a deal because

524
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:28,919
Speaker 1: they're actually supporting you to go out and try all

525
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 1: this stuff. It is and I mean without that, it

526
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,399
Speaker 1: would be really really hard to to do all of

527
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:35,919
Speaker 1: those things if you didn't have that support. Would you

528
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:39,159
Speaker 1: put on YouTube? What song like the one that I had,

529
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,280
Speaker 1: the one that There's Always There's Always a video? It

530
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:46,040
Speaker 1: was fifteen by Taylor Swift and I was fifteen singing it.

531
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:49,720
Speaker 1: So that's what got me here. And when they called,

532
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:51,360
Speaker 1: they asked for you, how why how do they get

533
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:53,679
Speaker 1: your number? That's the whole thing that I still have

534
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:55,480
Speaker 1: not figured out. I don't know how they found me,

535
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,200
Speaker 1: but I mean I'm glad that they did because I

536
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 1: learned a lot from it. But um, yeah, they literally

537
00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 1: just were like, hey is to kneel there and to

538
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 1: answered the phone and talk to them for a little while,

539
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:12,240
Speaker 1: and yeah, it was weird, grand old opry debut just happened. Amazing,

540
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:15,280
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. I still can't even believe that it happened.

541
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:17,359
Speaker 1: Like it was just one of those moments where you're like,

542
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:19,480
Speaker 1: it feels like a pad on the back from the

543
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,439
Speaker 1: country music industry, you know, just everybody here being like

544
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,359
Speaker 1: you deserve to be on that stage and make your debut.

545
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:27,600
Speaker 1: So I think that's what meant so much to me.

546
00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 1: And I had a ton of family and friends, everybody

547
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,119
Speaker 1: in town for it, so it was just a really

548
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 1: big deal and it made me feel very special. Yeah,

549
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:40,640
Speaker 1: so the the opera the first time is like a

550
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:44,440
Speaker 1: your eyes wide open thing. You'll like the second through

551
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:46,920
Speaker 1: the ninth or tenth time because you actually can take

552
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,000
Speaker 1: it in. There's just a lot of people there in

553
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 1: the first one. The first time that I played it,

554
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:52,840
Speaker 1: I was like, holy crap. And I do comedy a

555
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 1: little bit of music, right, so it's not definitely not

556
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 1: the same like you're a legitimate artist. I'm a joke,

557
00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:01,119
Speaker 1: so you it's just so many people like oh my goodness,

558
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 1: oh my goodness, that it's really hard to take it in. Yeah,

559
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 1: I feel like that would be what a wedding is like.

560
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 1: Even it's like the build up is like so crazy,

561
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 1: and then it's like over in a second, and you're like, oh,

562
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,159
Speaker 1: it is quick. But I will say, I don't know

563
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:18,320
Speaker 1: if you're playing it at anytime soon, but you you

564
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 1: actually enjoy the operay experience from now on more. Yeah, yeah,

565
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,320
Speaker 1: because you look. And for me, I struggle with even

566
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 1: seeing anyone in the audience because I was just like,

567
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 1: oh my god, this is crazy. I'm up here playing

568
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,680
Speaker 1: them in the circle. Um, and so I really didn't

569
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,000
Speaker 1: see the people out there. From now, I walk out

570
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,960
Speaker 1: there and it's it goes much slower. Yeah, that's good.

571
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 1: It's you can take it in. You can actually breathe

572
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 1: and talk in between segments if you want to. There's

573
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:46,920
Speaker 1: not the pressure of all your family being there. Good pressure,

574
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 1: but there's still a lot of pressure there with everybody watching. Yeah,

575
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 1: it definitely was like a little bit of pressure. But

576
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 1: I tried to. When I walked out there, I was like,

577
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,359
Speaker 1: for whatever reason, I wanted to like watch my foot

578
00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,359
Speaker 1: step into the circle. So I made sure to just

579
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:02,120
Speaker 1: like take them moment to like see that moment. That's cool.

580
00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:03,359
Speaker 1: Are you that kind of person? Are you take a

581
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 1: moment person? Yeah? I try to be, especially with those

582
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,320
Speaker 1: like really big moments. Otherwise it just gets away from

583
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 1: you sometimes, right, Top three Big moments in your life. Okay,

584
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,320
Speaker 1: let's let's let's walk backward on this. I know I've

585
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,000
Speaker 1: given you a second on this one. You're twenty five

586
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,920
Speaker 1: years old. Top three Big Moments of your life at

587
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,439
Speaker 1: number three, at number three, at number three in America,

588
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 1: we go backward to one. It's like a big build up.

589
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,160
Speaker 1: Can I still use the operation? Of course? Yeah? Nothing?

590
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 1: Number three? Number three? Uh? Performing on The Bachelor? Okay?

591
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:43,960
Speaker 1: Which one or two? Two? Because it was it was

592
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 1: just bigger and more people are like that. So that's

593
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:51,359
Speaker 1: number three. Life moment, number two life momentum performing the

594
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:55,720
Speaker 1: Canadian national anthem at the NBA Finals recently. Yeah, that's

595
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:57,919
Speaker 1: pretty cool. It was a big one. It was something

596
00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 1: that literally when I it I started working with my manager,

597
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:03,800
Speaker 1: I was like, the one thing I do not want

598
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 1: to do is sing any anthems. I am terrified. And

599
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 1: that was when I got the call for that. Obviously,

600
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:13,800
Speaker 1: I was excited and wanted to take that that opportunity

601
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,400
Speaker 1: and take that risk. But it was the most terrifying

602
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:20,000
Speaker 1: moment of my entire life so far. Uh what did

603
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:23,760
Speaker 1: you sing with any a band or totally? But yeah,

604
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 1: So was there any sort of echo back on top

605
00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:32,199
Speaker 1: of you? Yes, because that was tough. There was a

606
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:35,879
Speaker 1: lot of people and just you're kind of trying to

607
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 1: keep my note in my head walking out to the

608
00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 1: spot where I'm supposed to sing. I was so worried

609
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,720
Speaker 1: about that. And then they have all these rules about

610
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:44,760
Speaker 1: like you have to take a hard left to like

611
00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:46,640
Speaker 1: walk off so that you don't get hit by the

612
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:49,200
Speaker 1: flag that's coming out for the American anthem. And there

613
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,920
Speaker 1: were just so many things to think about. So I

614
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 1: explain how we're gonna get to number one in a second,

615
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 1: but explain how you're holding your note all the stuffs

616
00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 1: happening around you. What are you doing inside your head?

617
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,360
Speaker 1: If you watch back any of the clips, I'm literally

618
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:06,600
Speaker 1: just like, um like singing it in my head constantly.

619
00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:08,880
Speaker 1: But you got it? Yeah, And the thing, well, I

620
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 1: don't know about the Canadian anthem, but the American anthem,

621
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 1: if you start a little higher than you're supposed to,

622
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:16,640
Speaker 1: you're done. Oh yeah, what what's the Canadian anthem? Like

623
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 1: it's not difficult to to sing, like the range isn't

624
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:25,280
Speaker 1: as crazy as the American anthem. But I think for me,

625
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:28,400
Speaker 1: I overthink anthem so much. I'll go over the lyrics

626
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 1: in my head a hundred times. There's almost a no win. No,

627
00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:34,440
Speaker 1: there isn't way because it's number two on your list,

628
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:37,959
Speaker 1: so that's a win. However, in the grand scheme of

629
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 1: doing the anthem, if you go out and you nail

630
00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:44,320
Speaker 1: the anthem, you were supposed to nail the anthem, life

631
00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 1: just moves on. If you screw up the anthem any anthem,

632
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 1: life does not move on. People get piste. So it's

633
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:54,200
Speaker 1: a lot of pressure where if you nail it, you

634
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,400
Speaker 1: were supposed to thank you go about your day. But

635
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:59,160
Speaker 1: if you don't, holy crap. I mean I actually ended

636
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 1: up getting a lot of criticism. Why because I changed

637
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 1: it up a little bit. But we took it. You

638
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:11,040
Speaker 1: made it your own. It's not American idols. But okay,

639
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 1: Like the anthem is like oh Canada, and I went,

640
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 1: oh Canada, probably wouldn't done that for me. I just

641
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,120
Speaker 1: got Robert Gooley and watched him and done that. Well,

642
00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 1: oh Goda, but that's not me. So I went out

643
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 1: there and I did it the way that you know

644
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 1: Robert Gouley is he's I think he's. I think he's Canadian.

645
00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:31,720
Speaker 1: Do you know he is? I do know he is. Yeah.

646
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 1: I saw him saying that the the Canadian WrestleMania once and

647
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 1: for some reason, he's stuck in my head. You see

648
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 1: if Robert Gooley is Canadian, because if he's not, I

649
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 1: feel I could do. Okay, good for you. That's a

650
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:45,440
Speaker 1: number two singing the Canadian national anthem at the NBA finals.

651
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:48,560
Speaker 1: And who was the game? What was the game? It

652
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 1: was Toronto and it was the last one gold State. Yeah,

653
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 1: it wasn't the last but they were, yeah they were. Yes,

654
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 1: it was in the finals. It wasn't Okay, I don't

655
00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:59,480
Speaker 1: know sports, but yes, that's what happened. Okay, So but

656
00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:02,960
Speaker 1: who won the game? Ah, don't say Golden State because

657
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,480
Speaker 1: if you do, this may be the cursive to Neil.

658
00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:09,400
Speaker 1: You don't know. We'll go with Toronto then and Kauai

659
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 1: A big game as a whole thing. Yeah, it's a

662
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:24,680
Speaker 1: ancestry is in Canadian Canadians, Canadian. Who's the most famous

663
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 1: person you're growing up in Canada? The most famous person

664
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 1: to me? Okay, because she was from Canada and also

665
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 1: massive and probably the most famous everybody period in North America. Okay,

669
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,600
Speaker 1: the people in Canada. Can't get enough of them. That

670
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,080
Speaker 1: being said, I was thrown into so many places at

671
00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 1: once that they're like, you're in all that and I'm

674
00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 1: wear the hat proudly. But that may be the worst

675
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:09,560
Speaker 1: run hockey organization in the NHL. Are you a hockey

00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:19,880
Speaker 1: So freds, Oh, you don't have like a Canadian team?

679
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 1: I don't. You didn't did your dad like watch a team?

680
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 1: I mean like we grew up as a family. My

681
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:28,360
Speaker 1: brother played, so I mean the most hockey I watched

682
00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:30,240
Speaker 1: was him playing and I also played for a year,

683
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:34,560
Speaker 1: just saying but yeah, um played hockey. Yet you don't

684
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 1: have like a team that you watched. Okay, so you're

685
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:41,440
Speaker 1: a Preds fan. Yeah, I like to actually go to games.

686
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:44,640
Speaker 1: Watching sports on TV just does nothing for me. And

687
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:49,040
Speaker 1: you played hockey. Also a dancer and you answered that confidently.

688
00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:51,880
Speaker 1: So you were a good dancer. I mean I was competitive,

689
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:56,320
Speaker 1: especially with like tap dancing. That was kind of my thing. Um,

690
00:32:56,320 --> 00:33:00,280
Speaker 1: but my little sister is amazing, and so I once

691
00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:02,320
Speaker 1: I decided that I wasn't going to be a dancer,

692
00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:05,720
Speaker 1: she really she like ran with it. She loves dancing

693
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 1: and she still does that to this day. How many

694
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,120
Speaker 1: years did you dance? From the time I was like

695
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 1: three to eighteen? Oh a long time. Did you ever

696
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:18,000
Speaker 1: winny championships? I? Well, like I went to competitions all around, um,

697
00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:22,680
Speaker 1: like the provinces boarding mine and a few in the States. Trophies,

698
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:26,600
Speaker 1: I want some stuff crap because I want a trophy dance,

699
00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:28,000
Speaker 1: and I like to brag about it a little bit.

700
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 1: I danced for four months and well, yeah, there you go.

701
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 1: That's right, And that's a pretty big trophy, that's right.

702
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:37,440
Speaker 1: That's right. So probably imagine if I danced for fifteen years,

703
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:41,400
Speaker 1: all the trophies I would have. Um, Okay, so you're

704
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 1: in Canada, you moved to the States. You've been here

705
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 1: for as of today, like four years. That's it. Huh,

706
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:52,680
Speaker 1: Well you're just a baby and yeah, actual and you

707
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:54,360
Speaker 1: have a record deal and you've got music that's already.

708
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:56,320
Speaker 1: That's good for you. Thank you. Kind of popping a

709
00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 1: little bit. Well, I just decided. I was like, if

710
00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:01,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be away from everybody, because like I moved

711
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:03,880
Speaker 1: here not knowing anybody, my entire families back in Canada.

712
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:05,520
Speaker 1: I was like, if I'm gonna move here, I'm gonna

713
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:07,040
Speaker 1: put my head down to make sure that this time

714
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,920
Speaker 1: is worth it, and my time away from my family

715
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:13,000
Speaker 1: and my grandparents everything I needed to make it feel

716
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 1: like it was worthwhile. Is it frustrating to not find

717
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,680
Speaker 1: a key chain with your name on it? Yes, because

718
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 1: I don't know. I never met a Tannil until I

719
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:25,440
Speaker 1: met the other one, and I was like huh and

720
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:27,879
Speaker 1: then I heard and I was like, there's another. So

721
00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:30,719
Speaker 1: Tennil Towns is a friend and she opened for me

722
00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:31,960
Speaker 1: for a lot of tour for a lot of my

723
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:34,880
Speaker 1: comedy tour last year, and then I was like they

724
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:36,000
Speaker 1: were like ten Neil Arts and I was like, no,

725
00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:39,239
Speaker 1: you're saying it wrong. It's aid Town, not Art. And

726
00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:41,560
Speaker 1: they're like, no, there's another Tannil And I was like,

727
00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:43,160
Speaker 1: well how about that. That's kind of weird. What is she?

728
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 1: You know? What were she from? Like from Canada too?

729
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:51,319
Speaker 1: Same age? That's confusing, isn't that crazy? Did you guys

730
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:54,960
Speaker 1: know each other? Oh? You did from like a tenail

731
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:56,880
Speaker 1: chat room where you guys everybody Toil would get in

732
00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:58,640
Speaker 1: and talk with each other. Actually, the first time I

733
00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:01,040
Speaker 1: met her, she had one of her good friends with

734
00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:04,200
Speaker 1: her and her name was also Tanil. So what's what's happening?

735
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:07,480
Speaker 1: Is there something Canada where they name him after Captain Intanil?

736
00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:10,880
Speaker 1: Is big? Big thing? Mike is Tanil Canadian? From Captain Intanil?

737
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:13,120
Speaker 1: I don't know you looked at up. I know that

738
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 1: she was born in like Montgomery, Alabama or something. So

739
00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:19,279
Speaker 1: you know this already because I thought that was weird

740
00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:23,040
Speaker 1: because I grew up on Montgomery Crescent. She was from Montgomery, Alabama.

741
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:25,799
Speaker 1: Does that have anything to do with your name? Well,

742
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:30,759
Speaker 1: my parents named me after after Captain They loved the name,

743
00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:33,000
Speaker 1: but they also gave me two middle names just in case.

744
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:38,359
Speaker 1: Captain Intanil what sinking songs like muskrat Love. I don't

745
00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:40,160
Speaker 1: know how I know that. Did Kevin hit his back

746
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:45,320
Speaker 1: on the text? Not yet, They're apparently they're not Canadian.

747
00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:49,400
Speaker 1: You're going to lose. Um, okay, so let's do we

748
00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:53,560
Speaker 1: do this sometimes your Mount Rushmore of artists. Okay, you

749
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:57,120
Speaker 1: get four, However I allow five because everyone always goes,

750
00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:59,160
Speaker 1: let me add one more. I'm gonna give you five,

751
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 1: but you can't go let me add one more. We're

752
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:05,319
Speaker 1: already doing that plus one. So okay, five artists on

753
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:08,640
Speaker 1: your Mount Rushmore. Who is your first artist? Are they?

754
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:11,480
Speaker 1: Doesn't matter the genre, it can be any genre first artist,

755
00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:14,960
Speaker 1: Like this is no order? Well, okay, you don't have

756
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:17,440
Speaker 1: to rank them, but you can if you want. Are

757
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,200
Speaker 1: you saying right now? No order? No order? Because they'll

758
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:24,319
Speaker 1: probably come to me as as we do this. Um. Well,

759
00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:26,799
Speaker 1: I grew up listening to Paul Simon, so I'm a

760

910
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:41,480
Speaker 1: What's cool? As we could hear everybody saying I hear

911
00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:44,840
Speaker 1: about on the show or out, it's really good. I

912
00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:46,759
Speaker 1: don't know that. I was not expecting it to be,

913
00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:49,719
Speaker 1: but it's really good. And we've never done that before. Yeah,

914
00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:51,440
Speaker 1: you gotta brought your guitar and a ball or move.

915
00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:52,840
Speaker 1: It's like, I just have my guitar. If you need it,

916
00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:55,879
Speaker 1: let me. That's it's cool. I like that. Here's so.

917
00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:58,480
Speaker 1: I work on American Idol and I mentor a lot

918
00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:00,799
Speaker 1: of these these kids. A lot of the kids need

919
00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:02,879
Speaker 1: more of the music mentorship. A lot of the older

920
00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:04,719
Speaker 1: people kind of need the kind of the life how

921
00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:06,799
Speaker 1: to go to the reality show. But I tell them,

922
00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:08,480
Speaker 1: and I think you could probably speak on this too.

923
00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:10,959
Speaker 1: If someone asked you to play, just freaking play, Yeah

924
00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:13,719
Speaker 1: that's it. If someone's like, hey do you play, don't

925
00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:15,040
Speaker 1: take a thing and be like, well, I'm not really

926
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:18,719
Speaker 1: right now, and you know, let me think it, go like,

927
00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:22,800
Speaker 1: play your freaking song always because you never know who's listening.

928
00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:25,040
Speaker 1: Who may that person is not going to get your

929
00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:27,560
Speaker 1: record deal, but they may hear you and go, oh

930
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:30,440
Speaker 1: this person you should you should hear that. That's the thing.

931
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:32,799
Speaker 1: You never know when you're going to be discovered. And

932
00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:34,520
Speaker 1: I think the more you play, the more you get

933
00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:36,480
Speaker 1: out there, the more chances there are. You know, you

934
00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:38,279
Speaker 1: can't just sit in your bedroom and sing songs all

935
00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:40,080
Speaker 1: the time and think that you're going to get somewhere.

936
00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:43,320
Speaker 1: Here's my my neighbor overheard me singing in my backyard

937
00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:46,640
Speaker 1: and recommend me to get in vocal training. Is that

938
00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:49,920
Speaker 1: familiar at all? Because it didn't happen to me. It

939
00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:53,120
Speaker 1: happened to me. So you're singing and just doing How

940
00:46:53,120 --> 00:46:56,600
Speaker 1: old are you? Oh my gosh, I was probably like seven.

941
00:46:56,800 --> 00:46:59,799
Speaker 1: And your neighbor hears something in your voice and says,

942
00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:02,600
Speaker 1: how you should go and learn to sing the real way. Yeah,

943
00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:05,200
Speaker 1: she came over because I was always just like belting

944
00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:07,080
Speaker 1: out and I ha Twain songs or like whatever I

945
00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:09,919
Speaker 1: was listening to or making songs up belt him out

946
00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:13,120
Speaker 1: in my backyard and my neighbor just came over and

947
00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:14,799
Speaker 1: she's told my mom, She's like, I think she has

948
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:17,239
Speaker 1: a great voice. I think you should try to, you know,

949
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 1: take her somewhere, see if she can do something with it.

950
00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:23,960
Speaker 1: And of course I loved that my first voice lesson.

951
00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:27,480
Speaker 1: I was so pumped and just so excited that, like

952
00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:29,400
Speaker 1: that's what made it feel real to me at eight

953
00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:31,759
Speaker 1: years old, seven or eight whatever it was, I was like,

954
00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:33,640
Speaker 1: that's going to be my career. I'm going to do this.

955
00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:38,000
Speaker 1: Where did you start singing as a kid? Publicly, I

956
00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:40,719
Speaker 1: did like a couple of little like local festivals and

957
00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:44,040
Speaker 1: things like that. But also because I was doing classically

958
00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:49,000
Speaker 1: um trained music, I also performed in like the music

959
00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:52,000
Speaker 1: festivals and stuff, and you would sing what kind of

960
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:55,120
Speaker 1: song is a classical trained performer? There was like a

961
00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:59,439
Speaker 1: book songs out of Okay, Um, you have another record

964
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:08,560
Speaker 1: so it may already be out when this thing is.

00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:58,160
Speaker 1: didn't get to go. Which show? It was the one

984
00:48:58,160 --> 00:49:03,839
Speaker 1: at the Rhyman the Gold Now our tour I did. Yeah,

985
00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:06,399
Speaker 1: I'm really jealous. Yeah you should be. It's it's great. Yeah.

986
00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:07,920
Speaker 1: Why did you not get to go? I had a

987
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:10,799
Speaker 1: show come up? Great reason to not go? Exactly how

988
00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:14,040
Speaker 1: about that good? Okay, So question number two, what's the

989
00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:18,000
Speaker 1: last movie you saw in theaters? In theaters? Um, I

990
00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:21,600
Speaker 1: think it was that last show, um, last movie of

991
00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:28,200
Speaker 1: the Avengers or whatever that. Yeah, in game it was good. Huh,

992
00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:31,000
Speaker 1: it was long. Yeah. Well, here's the thing, I didn't

993
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:35,279
Speaker 1: watch any of the other ones, because there were like three.

994
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:38,440
Speaker 1: I saw most of them, but there were only three

995
00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:40,440
Speaker 1: or four that I didn't see, and I felt a

996
00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:42,320
Speaker 1: little out of it at times. I can only imagine

997
00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:45,680
Speaker 1: what you felt. No, it's knowing. I was very out

998
00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:47,840
Speaker 1: of it. Well, actually, I think I saw the Captain

999
00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:51,840
Speaker 1: Marvel won the Girl. Um. Maybe, yeah, I saw that

1000
00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:53,920
Speaker 1: one before. But also at the end of that, I

1001
00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:55,799
Speaker 1: did not know that this was like a big thing

1002
00:49:55,880 --> 00:49:57,879
Speaker 1: that was going to be coming to an end, and

1003
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:01,160
Speaker 1: everybody was sitting in the theater like waiting to see

1004
00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:03,480
Speaker 1: whatever they show at the end of those movies. I

1005
00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:05,920
Speaker 1: had no clue. I was completely in the dark that

1006
00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:08,799
Speaker 1: this was a whole series of things. And that's the

1007
00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:10,799
Speaker 1: last movie you saw. Okay, are you on the road

1008
00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:14,200
Speaker 1: a lot? Now? Every weekend? You're going out? This weekend,

1009
00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:17,160
Speaker 1: I am, I'm leaving tomorrow. Where do you go? I'm

1010
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:22,680
Speaker 1: going to Deadwood, South Dakota. Wow, Yeah, it's a trip. Yeah,

1011
00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:28,680
Speaker 1: you're driving the Pontiac, but I don't even think it

1012
00:50:28,680 --> 00:50:30,920
Speaker 1: would make it there. One final question, what is your

1013
00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:36,080
Speaker 1: hobby and why do you do it? My hobby? Um,

1014
00:50:36,080 --> 00:50:39,000
Speaker 1: it cannot be something you make money at, so don't

1015
00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:41,120
Speaker 1: say music. What is your hobby and why do you

1016
00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:45,680
Speaker 1: do it? Man? It's a lot of my things have

1017
00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:48,440
Speaker 1: to do with music, But like this, one thing that

1018
00:50:48,480 --> 00:50:50,880
Speaker 1: I started doing is like painting on the back of

1019
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:53,839
Speaker 1: jean jackets. So that's kind of like a hobby thing

1020
00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:58,200
Speaker 1: that has become something that I think. That's a wonderful answer. Um,

1021
00:50:58,239 --> 00:51:01,480
Speaker 1: you're in a jacket now. That is Arry painty, but

1022
00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:04,160
Speaker 1: you didn't paint this one. Okay, let's check one more

1023
00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:10,799
Speaker 1: time for Kevin. This is her dad. Three. Okay, we'll

1035
00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:35,960
Speaker 1: year that i feel like my music has just changed

1038
00:51:41,840 --> 00:51:44,080
Speaker 1: L L. E. Arts. I've bet you. People ask all

1039
00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:45,839
Speaker 1: the time if that's your real last name. It is

1040
00:51:46,920 --> 00:51:49,560
Speaker 1: Kevin Arts, one of my favorite wheat farmers in Canada,

1041
00:51:50,120 --> 00:51:52,400
Speaker 1: so it's a guy. Um. All right, Well, there we

1042
00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:54,600
Speaker 1: have it, Mike, I believe that I'll wrap us up

1043
00:51:54,640 --> 00:51:57,880
Speaker 1: episode two oh three with Tenille Arts. It's a solid interview,

1044
00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:00,400
Speaker 1: maybe the longest you've ever done it was, but it

1045
00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:03,880
Speaker 1: was great. Yeah, as you walk out the house, and

1046
00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:07,040
Speaker 1: I always wonder if it's weird because this we'd normally

1047
00:52:07,040 --> 00:52:09,600
Speaker 1: do this earlier in the daytime, but because of my schedule,

1048
00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:11,319
Speaker 1: so weird this week we actually did this one at night.

1049
00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:13,440
Speaker 1: It's fully dark right now. Yeah, I'd always think it'd

1050
00:52:13,480 --> 00:52:16,360
Speaker 1: be weird going to somebody's house for a show, like

1051
00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:17,799
Speaker 1: someone's like coming to the come to the house. We're

1052
00:52:17,800 --> 00:52:20,080
Speaker 1: gonna do a show like this gotta be a little weird, right,

1053
00:52:20,160 --> 00:52:22,799
Speaker 1: I mean not really. I was like, I'm coming here

1054
00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:25,920
Speaker 1: with my manager. I don't know, it doesn't matter to me, great,

1055
00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:29,080
Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I just just think, like going to somebody's house,

1056
00:52:29,239 --> 00:52:31,360
Speaker 1: this is a trick. But you can rest assured it

1057
00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:33,439
Speaker 1: is not a trick. All right. But we didn't record
