But I figured it out. I 83 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: figured it out, and um, I call him schlap happy 84 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 1: bars because they make him very happy.

I 100 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: think it's about moderation. I really do, because I do indulge, 101 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:07,040 Speaker 1: but then I'll restrain when I waited tables, So I 102 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: gotta say I didn't eat a lot of the food 103 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 1: that I was serving. Yeah, I've waited tables here too. 104 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 1: You wait tables here in Brentwood at a little cafe 105 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 1: called Maggie's Cafe.

Oh, yeah, it 110 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 1: was when I first got here. Yeah, it was a little, tiny, 111 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: little lunch cafe. It was just lunch only in Brentwood. 112 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 1: And so what would you do You work in the 113 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: daytime and then seeing at night. Yeah, I was working 114 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: in the daytime, and then Karen and I would hang 115 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:46,039 Speaker 1: out at night and dream and brainstorm and figure out. 116 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: We knew we wanted to do something together. I know 117 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,359 Speaker 1: you talked to Karen through all this on her podcast, 118 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 1: But we we knew we wanted to do something together, 119 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: but we just didn't know what. And for months and 120 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 1: months and months we tried to figure it out. And 121 00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: we just hang out together all the time. And you 122 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 1: guys went to school together and you were friends through school, 123 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,479 Speaker 1: moved to Nashville and still stayed friends. Oh yeah, we 124 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,280 Speaker 1: met in college and we were in there at Sanford. 125 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: They Sanford University in Birmingham. They have this incredible a 126 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 1: cappella choir, and so we literally met on the bus 127 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,840 Speaker 1: going to choir camp. She was sitting in front of me, 128 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:20,720 Speaker 1: I was behind her, and we struck up a conversation 129 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: because we were both from Georgia. And I mean, I 130 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 1: I remember that vividly. I remember the seats and everything, 131 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: and her face and her long Amy Grant hair which 132 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 1: she had back then, and I just remember the conversation 133 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: and and stracking up a friendship that has lasted a very, 134 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: very decades, very long time. Then individually, we both moved 135 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 1: here to Nashville. She came first. Oh you guys didn't 136 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 1: move at the same time. No, because we never did 137 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 1: talk about doing anything in country music together until both 138 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,239 Speaker 1: of us got here, because we were all just always 139 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 1: just really good friends. We had so we had already 140 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 1: at that point experienced so much fun stuff together, and 141 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: so we just kept in touch and we would just say. 142 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: It first started with you know, we're both here in town, 143 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 1: let's go to lunch, let's just catch up. Did you 144 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: guys ever consider just being a duo a female duo? 145 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: Was that a thing? Even? I mean the Judds, the 146 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 1: Juds and the chicks were really hot at that time, 147 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: so we didn't want to do an all girl thing. 148 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: And that's why we thought, let's let's put a male, 149 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: at least one male. Le's took up with some you 150 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 1: know guy and start singing. And then and then somewhere 151 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: along the way, we decided, well if we had two 152 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 1: guys and we could do even better harmony. Um. So 153 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 1: at first we were singing with Jimmy for many months, 154 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 1: so as you Karen and Jimmy right. And then first 155 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: of all, it took when Karen and I finally were like, hey, 156 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: let's just do a mixed group. It took us probably 157 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: a year to even start singing with Jimmy just to 158 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 1: figure it out. And then it took us many many 159 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 1: more months to find Philip, and then finally in I 160 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: think it was late not it was the fall of 161 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: n when we first sang together in my living room, 162 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 1: and that was the beginning. But even those guys like 163 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 1: they probably came to town looking to do their own thing. Yeah, 164 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: we all did. Karen was gonna do country music. I 165 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: was gonna do country music on our own thing. Yeah, Philip, Jimmy, 166 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: everybody was just going to chase their own dreams. Is 167 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: there a bit of an ego drop to go, Okay, 168 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: now I'm part of a group. I didn't come as 169 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,600 Speaker 1: a band and now we're a band. It's like a 170 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 1: relationship almost where there's a lot of compromise that then 171 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 1: goes in. Yeah, but I don't. I don't think it 172 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 1: was an ego thing at all. I think it We 173 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:45,200 Speaker 1: were so excited about the idea um and we had 174 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,440 Speaker 1: all been in groups before, well, Karen and I had, 175 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: Jimmy had, and Philip had sung with his family a 176 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 1: lot at his mom's um country music theater in Arkansas. 177 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: So we had all, you know, had that experience and 178 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 1: we loved being in groups. So you know, it wasn't 179 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,680 Speaker 1: it wasn't like it was a compromise or anything. Is 180 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: there a code with you guys, because you're all of 181 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 1: you guys are notoriously super nice like always to me 182 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:11,959 Speaker 1: at least, I don't know how you are everybody else, 183 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 1: but you are super kind and you've been kind to 184 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 1: me even when people weren't kind to me when I 185 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,839 Speaker 1: came to town and I was the guy that was 186 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: trouble or the guy that was different. You guys were 187 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 1: always so nice to me. And I'll always be thankful 188 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 1: because you are nice to me when other people weren't. 189 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: But I wonder, is there some kind of secret code 190 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 1: in the band where you have to be nicer and 191 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 1: then when you get away you're just mean? Ever? But 192 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 1: are you? Is that? Is it like written somewhere that 193 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 1: you guys really try to be kind? Everybody's not written anywhere. 194 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: I feel like that's just how we were raised. We 195 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 1: were just raised on some good Southern roots to treat 196 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 1: people well. All four of you guys. It's hard. Usually 197 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 1: there's a turd in there somewhere. And I've been able 198 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: to be friends with Philip a bit outside of the 199 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 1: music world, Philip and his wife and so. And he's 200 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 1: the quietest of all four of you guys. Yeah. Sometimes 201 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: well whenever you guys come in and do you know publicity, Okay, 202 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 1: he usually doesn't say much. And he's who I've probably 203 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: become socially the friendliest, right, And he's super nice. And 204 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: he's the least nice because he doesn't talk as much. So, yeah, 205 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,199 Speaker 1: you guys have always been super super kind since the 206 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: very beginning. And I just if that was like because 207 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 1: our show, you know, we have roles on the show, 208 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: in radio show. I do wonder if you guys had 209 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: a role, like, Okay, even you're feeling bad, you got 210 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:27,720 Speaker 1: the rules. You have to be nice and if you're 211 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: not nice, you can find a thousand dollars. That's hilarious. No, no, 212 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 1: nothing like that. I feel like, um, I feel like 213 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:38,959 Speaker 1: the reason maybe that you would say we're all nice 214 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 1: still is because of our journey, because it wasn't handed 215 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: to us on a silver platter. We worked so very 216 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 1: very hard and we are very very grateful for what 217 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: we've been given and know that any day, you know, 218 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 1: it could it could go away. But I think that 219 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 1: that appreciation just keeps us grounded and helps us remember that, 220 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 1: you know, remember what the other way was lack and 221 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,680 Speaker 1: and and just just you know, my just my parents 222 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: taught me to treat people well and to be good 223 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 1: to everybody. And you know, you never know what somebody 224 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 1: else is going through, even if they're you know, ugly 225 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 1: or mean, you never know why they might be ugly 226 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 1: in me, and you don't know what's going on at home, 227 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: so just be sweet to him. I feel like a 228 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 1: bit and maybe more than a bit. But Keith Urban's 229 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 1: like that too, because I'll talk to Keith even outside 230 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:32,319 Speaker 1: of the world of whatever we're in, and keeps always 231 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: super kind to everyone. But I'll talk to him, and 232 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 1: you know, keeps going to a lot of drug issues 233 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: and we talk about we we'll talk about that because 234 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: my my mom died of you know, drugs and or 235 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:43,440 Speaker 1: forties and I was around that my whole life. And 236 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 1: so I think he's been a little more open with 237 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: me about that. And he'll talk about not even remembering 238 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: yours and being rude, and I think now he appreciates, 239 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 1: and so that makes him kind and I hope that's 240 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 1: what makes me nice because I get it. And so, yeah, 241 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 1: you guys are just you. And I have only have 242 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: like three plaques.

Yeah. So how old 294 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 1: does she? She's tin And then you have a one 295 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: year old. Dolly is one, so she's sixteen months. So 296 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 1: you've done it before. So is it harder the second time? Yeah, 297 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: because it's a decade later, mama is older. Yeah, it's 298 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 1: it's it's I mean, I guess it's harder physically, but 299 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 1: oh my word, it's this the sweetest thing. I mean, 300 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 1: it's the best. The best part of my laugh is 301 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 1: being a mama. Ah, you look forward to going home. 302 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 1: I love it. They go with me on the road, 303 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 1: though I don't leave them. I rarely ever have to 304 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 1: leave him at home. Um, but yeah, I love if 305 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 1: I've been working all day in town and I walk 306 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 1: in the door and Daisies like mommy, and Dolly starts 307 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: running towards me. There's nothing better. Amy, my co host, 308 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 1: adopted two children and it was a five year process 309 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 1: for the kids to get here, and you know, it 310 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 1: was obviously a whole different situation, but I feel like, 311 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 1: in a third hand way, I know what it's like 312 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 1: to at least be close to someone who goes to 313 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 1: the process. And so how long were you in the 314 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 1: adoption process? Well, Um, Daisy started praying for a baby 315 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 1: when she was five years old. She wanted a baby 316 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 1: brother or sister. She didn't care what, she just wanted 317 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 1: a baby brother sister. So we were trying to have 318 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 1: another baby very hard. We did everything you know, under 319 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: the sun medically that we could do, and so then 320 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: we decided, well, maybe God that's not in his will. 321 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 1: Maybe he just wants us to adopt a baby because 322 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 1: I've always wanted to adopt a child. So we started 323 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 1: the process um, and they told us it would be 324 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 1: eighteen months at least we'd waited eighteen months, and we 325 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 1: were like, oh, that's a big bummer, but okay, because 326 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 1: we were doing it domestically. Um, and lo and behold, 327 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 1: it happened. About four months later. I got a call 328 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: about Dolly. It just happened. It just you know, it 329 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 1: was just this fluke thing that happened. And someone called 330 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 1: and said there's a baby girl. Are you interested? Yes? Yes, 331 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 1: But here's the great thing. Um. That was in Um 332 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 1: January of two thousand seventeen, and Daisy had asked Santa 333 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 1: Claus for a baby that year we got her when 334 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 1: whenever she asked, did you know no, no, and my 335 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: husband and I were like, oh, baby, you and asked Santa. 336 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 1: But you know, Santa really we really didn't have control 337 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: over that. So you know, I mean, he probably talks 338 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:10,120 Speaker 1: to Jesus so you can have him, you know, put 339 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,159 Speaker 1: in a good word. But but I don't think Santa 340 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:15,880 Speaker 1: can do that. And even when she sat on Santa's lap, 341 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: he said, oh, she sat on his lap and asked him, 342 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 1: and and before she got out there, I was like, baby, 343 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 1: you know he probably I don't know what he's going 344 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:26,439 Speaker 1: to say to this because I don't know Santa can 345 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 1: even Santa can do this. And so she said, um, 346 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 1: I wanted the only thing I want this Christmas is 347 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 1: a baby, and I know you might not can do it, 348 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: but if you talk to Jesus, would you tell him 349 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 1: that I want a baby? And that's what we got. 350 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,159 Speaker 1: So whenever you told her, did you tell her at 351 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 1: Christmas Okay, I got a text on my phone and said, 352 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 1: there's a baby, are you interested? And we were um 353 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: out of town. We were, she, myself and my husband 354 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 1: were all sitting on the bed together very late at night, 355 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: and when I read that text, it took my breath 356 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 1: and I went and of course Dasy's like, what what what? What? What? 357 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 1: What is it? What is it? So I turned my 358 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:12,919 Speaker 1: phone so that she and my husband could see it, 359 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: and oh. She burst into tears and started jumping up, 360 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 1: jumping up and down on the bed saying thank you Jesus, 361 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 1: thank you, Jesus, thank you Jesus, jumping up crying. And 362 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,119 Speaker 1: my husband are like, baby, hey, we don't know if 363 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:27,719 Speaker 1: this is our baby. We don't know, we don't know, 364 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:29,919 Speaker 1: and she was going I believe it as I believe, 365 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:33,680 Speaker 1: I believe, and she was really so emotional, and it 366 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 1: was just one of the most beautiful visions I still have. 367 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,679 Speaker 1: It will last me my whole life, just her on 368 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 1: that little bit, jumping up and down crying because she 369 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:47,479 Speaker 1: knew that was her baby. That's crazy. It's crazy that 370 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:51,880 Speaker 1: she asked Santa. She did. She wanted it so bad 371 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 1: and now she's the best little mother. She loves that 372 00:18:56,960 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 1: baby to pieces. Yeah, okay, gratulations, that's a special How 373 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:07,040 Speaker 1: important it's faith to you? Most important? Yeah? It is 374 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 1: most important. Um. I just I have a very strong faith. 375 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 1: I grew up that way, my parents raised me that way, 376 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 1: and I just believe that my whole life is because 377 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 1: of God and what He's given me. And I've been 378 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 1: incredibly blessed and I've been through a lot of hardship also, 379 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 1: and um, but what He's given me now I could 380 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 1: have never even dreamed or I've never could have even 381 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 1: dreamed up, both business wise and personal mostly really, what 382 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 1: kind of church did you grow up in? Southern Baptists? 383 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:47,879 Speaker 1: So did? I? YEA a non dancing because we weren't. 384 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 1: They let us dance. They let us dance that we 385 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 1: were a non drinking one though the only down there 386 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 1: if you were a Southern Baptist, only way you could 387 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 1: drink is if you were in the closet. You had 388 00:19:57,359 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 1: the hide in your closet, and you know, nobody And 389 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:02,400 Speaker 1: maybe I was just a kid and my parents didn't 390 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,159 Speaker 1: go to church with me, so I don't know, but 391 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 1: I went to us in Arkansas, Southern Baptist Church and 392 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:13,200 Speaker 1: it was pretty free considering what a lot of we 393 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 1: were to church camp and they would be hardcore. I 394 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,119 Speaker 1: mean there were kids that couldn't dance. It was like footloose. 395 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:20,119 Speaker 1: We would go to church camp and there were other 396 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 1: kids that were they were in footloose um and they 397 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 1: couldn't dance. I thought it was so crazy that we were. 398 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:26,640 Speaker 1: We danced, did you have because we would go it. 399 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 1: I went to I was in a very small town. 400 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:31,119 Speaker 1: How big was your town? Oh? I don't even know. 401 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 1: I really don't even know. I still don't know. It 402 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:36,159 Speaker 1: was we had one high school in our whole county, 403 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:40,200 Speaker 1: and there's about in our in my class, my graduation 404 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 1: class there was like okay, well mine was like forty 405 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 1: oh years was smaller, probably the same type of area. Yeah, 406 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 1: very rural. Not his rural anymore? Is your town are 407 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 1: they super? Kimberly Slapman's from here? This is embarrassing, But 408 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 1: like three years ago they had Kimberly Schlapman Day on 409 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 1: my birthday. It was the whole big It was sweet, 410 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 1: really sweet and precious, and that year that day we 411 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 1: announced a scholarship that we do now every year down 412 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 1: there to someone in the high school because it's really cool. Yeah, 413 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 1: that's been the coolest part of any sort of success 414 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 1: that I've been able to have. One they put up 415 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 1: a sign when you're drive into my town. I didn't 416 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:32,359 Speaker 1: put it up. I've seen it on Instagram Boo boyhood 417 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:37,640 Speaker 1: home and I'm proud of my hometown. And I didn't 418 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 1: know that we're gonna put that sign up. But I 419 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 1: started a scholarship at my school too, and I give 420 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 1: it to a senior. And I was driving in and 421 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:46,479 Speaker 1: Amy my coast and my girlfriend at the time. We 422 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 1: were driving and I had no idea and it was raining, 423 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,120 Speaker 1: and I was like, what did that sign? You didn't 424 00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 1: know it was there. I had no idea. It was 425 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:55,159 Speaker 1: really one of the coolest moments. And I don't have 426 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 1: a bad problem with taking in cool things like I 427 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 1: really it's helped me to appreciate awesome moments because I 428 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 1: feel like they're fleeting and so yeah, it's a whole 429 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 1: therapy thing. Yeah, I was going to go there, but 430 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 1: I didn't want to. But I know I know why, 431 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 1: because that because you were disappointed in your young laft 432 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: and so that's what you expect always. But I really 433 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:18,680 Speaker 1: took that and I'm like, man, although my town is 434 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:22,360 Speaker 1: seven seven and seventy seven people. That's the coolest thing. 435 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: They have a son and listeners will go in the 436 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 1: old drive for hours and take a picture with the sign. 437 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 1: It's unbelievable. That's what I think I've seen. I think 438 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:31,959 Speaker 1: I've seen a listener with the sun. I don't know. 439 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 1: The thing is, I don't even know why people like 440 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:35,439 Speaker 1: the show where like I really don't, like I say 441 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 1: it on the air, like I'm confused as to why 442 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:40,399 Speaker 1: they're such passion for the show. Like I get Amy. 443 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:42,879 Speaker 1: Everybody loves Amy. Well, of course she's a little angel. 444 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 1: But I think first of all, it's very entertaining, and secondly, 445 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 1: you give people an inside look at Nashville. They fishing, 446 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,679 Speaker 1: by the way, this is I'm not fishing. That's this 447 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: is really what I believe. I believe that you give 448 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 1: people such an insight in the city of Nashville and 449 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,440 Speaker 1: the workings of country music that they don't get anywhere else. 450 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: You're like the live social media now Comfortable'm gonna change 451 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 1: the subject here for a minute. You talk about the 452 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:14,120 Speaker 1: little bit town struggles. What was so the moment where 453 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:15,399 Speaker 1: you guys thought, I don't know if we can do 454 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:21,119 Speaker 1: this anymore. Well, we never collectively thought that, or at 455 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: least we never collectively said it out loud. UM. I 456 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 1: feel like we we had a few very very low points. 457 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:33,639 Speaker 1: One was after we lost our second record deal from Sony, 458 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,440 Speaker 1: and then one was when my husband died and and 459 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 1: nothing was going well for us. At that point. We 460 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: had written and recorded Boondocks, and so we had that 461 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,879 Speaker 1: in our back pocket, and and it was it was 462 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 1: actually about to come out right around the time that 463 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:52,159 Speaker 1: he died, UM, and we were already signed to Equity Records, 464 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 1: which was that little independent label that sold over a 465 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 1: million records for us UM. But that was a very 466 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 1: low moment. And told me much much later that she 467 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: thought the band was probably over at that point, not 468 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 1: that anybody wanted it to be, but they didn't know 469 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 1: that I would want to continue UM. So we never 470 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:19,199 Speaker 1: ever said this isn't gonna work together, at least in 471 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:22,200 Speaker 1: my head. After he died, I was just so numb. 472 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 1: I didn't want to really do anything. But I've showed up, 473 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 1: you know. We went on the road a few weeks later, 474 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 1: on the radio tour four Boondocks. Do you remember that? 475 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 1: I remember moments of that. I remember really really super 476 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 1: sad moments of that, and then I remember a couple 477 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 1: of highs. You know, I remember the first time we 478 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,919 Speaker 1: heard on the radio. That was really super cool because 479 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:53,360 Speaker 1: we've been struggling for at that point six years. We've 480 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:56,719 Speaker 1: been a band six years and so many struggles, and 481 00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:58,480 Speaker 1: so when we heard it live for the first time, 482 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 1: that was just amazing. Yeah. Do you think all four 483 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:04,360 Speaker 1: of you guys remember that hearing it for the first time. 484 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,120 Speaker 1: We were in a car together, and that was after 485 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:11,960 Speaker 1: Steve had died and we heard that and we just, oh, 486 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 1: we celebrated. That's probably the first celebration or a moment 487 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:21,199 Speaker 1: that we had to celebrate after his death. You know, 488 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 1: that was the first happy moment together. How high did 489 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:29,680 Speaker 1: this song elevate you guys as a band? Meaning did 490 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,920 Speaker 1: your guarantees go up? Did you make more money? Were 491 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 1: you starting to get awards show bookings? Because of this song? 492 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:39,120 Speaker 1: We started making money, period. And when this song came out, Yeah, 493 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 1: we had prior to that, we had told Cia to 494 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,720 Speaker 1: just book us for enough money to rent a van 495 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,400 Speaker 1: and pay for the gas and stop at McDonald's. That's 496 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 1: all we needed. So there was no money coming in 497 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 1: because well, anything that did come in went back out 498 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 1: because of the expenses. It's very expensive to tour, whether 499 00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:00,160 Speaker 1: you're in a minivan or you're in ten bus as 500 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:03,160 Speaker 1: you know, it's super expensive. It's all relative. But um, 501 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 1: at that point we were just barely sometimes we make 502 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,639 Speaker 1: five and that was enough to rent a van and 503 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 1: gas and food. Um. So yes, after Boondocks hit, you know, 504 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,800 Speaker 1: the money went up a little bit, the invites went 505 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:21,719 Speaker 1: up a lot and and the credibility went up a 506 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:26,120 Speaker 1: lot um because people they just so connected with that 507 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 1: song and it became their anthem and it changed everything 508 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 1: for us. What was the quickest thing that it changed, Um, 509 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:41,400 Speaker 1: probably our spirits. Yes, our spirits were kind of broken 510 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 1: and wounded, and yeah, now we had something that people 511 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,600 Speaker 1: actually believed in us. And you know how that is. 512 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,439 Speaker 1: That's that's worth more than anything when someone who believes 513 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:55,200 Speaker 1: in you and invites you to come to shows. I'll 514 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,399 Speaker 1: tell you this is so funny. We pulled up in 515 00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:00,680 Speaker 1: a parking lot in I think it was Lexington, Kentucky. 516 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:02,639 Speaker 1: We pulled up in a parking like one not to 517 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,439 Speaker 1: sing this is rote when Boondocks had come out, and 518 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 1: the parking lot was crammed full of people and it 519 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,199 Speaker 1: was just the four of us in this van, and 520 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 1: we looked around, like, who are we opening up for? 521 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:16,360 Speaker 1: Who is this? Who's here tonight? We we genuinely wondered 522 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 1: who was here that we were opening up for, and 523 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 1: we found it it was for us, and that moment 524 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 1: was like, holy cow, these people came to see us. 525 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 1: This is amazing, um and that not. They asked for 526 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,880 Speaker 1: an encore, so we played all the songs we knew 527 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:34,640 Speaker 1: and they wanted an encore, so we played Boondocks again 528 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 1: because we didn't have any more songs. That's Funny again 529 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 1: and loved it. Yes, I love the end of the song, 530 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:48,399 Speaker 1: like my favorite parts, and so are all four of 531 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:51,400 Speaker 1: you guys on that and all going over the top. 532 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 1: It starts around around Philip starts it, then Jimmy, then 533 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:58,400 Speaker 1: Karen than me. Yeah, because I was working a pop 534 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 1: at the time. Still listen in the country, but not 535 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,199 Speaker 1: as much because I was totally in pop trying to 536 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 1: build my own syndication. I was talking for the most part, 537 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 1: but still all that have with pop music around me. 538 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 1: But I remember that song because I plup over the 539 00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: country station and out here you get a line I 540 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 1: We'll go fishing, and I was like, oh, I love 541 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 1: that song, but you know, five cop Poker, that was 542 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 1: that song. I don't sing it back to you because 543 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:21,920 Speaker 1: you know, I love it. And that's my favorite part 544 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:26,720 Speaker 1: of every single show that yes, because the crowd, well, 545 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:28,720 Speaker 1: the crowd sings that whole song. But at the end 546 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 1: of that song usually that means the show's just about 547 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,400 Speaker 1: over and the crowd they'll pick their parts and they'll 548 00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 1: sing it. It's so much fun. Do you put that 549 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: at the end of the show? Mostly yeah, And we've 550 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 1: tried not putting it at the end of the shows. 551 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 1: We've tried to put it up farther in the show, 552 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 1: and then we get to the end of whatever, you 553 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 1: know we're we end with and it's like, oh, nope, 554 00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 1: we needed to end with the knucks. Every time we 555 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 1: experiment on something else, Nope. Whenever you guys get your 556 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 1: clothes because you can and dressed so well, thank you 557 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 1: differently but so well, thank you?

But it's 560 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:08,800 Speaker 1: working out really well for me and the rest of 561 00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 1: the van. She Um, she's got such a gift at 562 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 1: fashion and putting things together, so we have it. We 563 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 1: do things a couple of different ways. When we're on television, 564 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 1: usually we have a stylus out in l A named 565 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 1: Carla Welch, and she's amazing and she'll put looks for 566 00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 1: us together for all that, but then for tours and 567 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:35,479 Speaker 1: other things, Karen shops and pulls just incredible clothes and 568 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: then we just kind of I mean, we also buy 569 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 1: for ourselves. She doesn't buy everything, but she buys a lot. 570 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 1: Like last night. I remember at the last show, I 571 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 1: was like, Okay, from head to toe I'm Karen Fairchild 572 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 1: because she bought everything I have on But um, I 573 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 1: love it when she shops from me. She'll go out 574 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 1: shopping and she'll be like, I bought you something. I 575 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 1: was like, WHOA, I love that. I love that. Um. 576 00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 1: And so you know, every when we get ready for 577 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:05,000 Speaker 1: the show, we have these incredible wardrobe cases, which we 578 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 1: used to not have and now we do, and they're 579 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 1: just so amazing. So we keep all our tour clothes 580 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 1: in him, and you know, we just all pick out 581 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:13,400 Speaker 1: what we want to wear. And sometimes Jim, you'll come 582 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 1: in our room and I'll go, what color are you 583 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 1: all wearing to that? And so we'll try to coordinate 584 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:19,600 Speaker 1: and look like we're going to the same party. But um, 585 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 1: Karen pulls a lot of that for us. She picks 586 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:23,000 Speaker 1: a lot of that out for us. I have so 587 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 1: intrigued because you guys dressed so well. But I wonder 588 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 1: if it's on Instagram? Do you wear it again or 589 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 1: is it dead? I wear it again, Yeah, yeah, just 590 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 1: because that's how I was raised. I just I just 591 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 1: I don't have a problem wearing again. Sometimes Karen's like, Okay, 592 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 1: you need to retire that, So yeah, I'll wear it again. 593 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:42,800 Speaker 1: What's been the biggest surprise in the little big town life? 594 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 1: Like the whole the thing you really didn't think was 595 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 1: going to work out that ended up going Wow? Why 596 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 1: because you were working hard, obviously and grinding towards that 597 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 1: first single. Obviously you expected something to paper. You wouldn't 598 00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 1: never continued to do it. What was the big one? 599 00:30:56,560 --> 00:31:02,479 Speaker 1: Were you? Well? That was unexpected? Um? Maybe the Forrell 600 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 1: record that we did. We got a phone call and 601 00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 1: thank you, thank you. That was such a treat to make. 602 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 1: What a genius he is. We adore him. We got 603 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 1: a phone call and they said, do you want to 604 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 1: Farrell wants to write with you? Like, what for? Wait Forrell? Yeah, 605 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 1: heck yeah. So we booked a day with him and 606 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:24,800 Speaker 1: it was a day in Nashville. He came here. It 607 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 1: was a day in Nashville where we had a little 608 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 1: snow storm storm and you know how that that goes here, 609 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:31,760 Speaker 1: So that's everything down. We all made it to the 610 00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 1: studio and we started writting. We wrote two songs that day, 611 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 1: and he said, let's come back tomorrow. So we said, 612 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 1: of course. We came back to our I wrote another song. 613 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: You wrote two songs the same day, a lot of songs. 614 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 1: And with him and pop pop music, I guess this 615 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 1: is pretty common. They write a song, but as they 616 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 1: write it, they go ahead and record it. They start 617 00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 1: tracking it and go ahead and get it down, which 618 00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:57,960 Speaker 1: we had never done before. And it was so much fun. 619 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 1: So at the end of two days we had three 620 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 1: songs written and recorded, and so he said, let's just 621 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 1: do this again, and so we said, well sure, So 622 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 1: we started just rotten more and more, and every time 623 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 1: we wrote, we would get it cut. You know, I 624 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 1: want to say, get it on tape, but you know 625 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 1: how that goes. No, that's that sounds like I'm really old. 626 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 1: But before we knew it, we had eight songs written 627 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 1: and recorded and we weren't going to do anything with it. 628 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 1: But then when we ended up with that many that 629 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,240 Speaker 1: we loved so much, we thought, wow, wouldn't we put 630 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: it out? So let's just put it out. And you know, 631 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 1: we weren't like trying to make a statement of that 632 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 1: we're switching teams or anything like that. We just had 633 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 1: a ball and he's so musical and we learned so 634 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 1: much from him and ended up making a record. I 635 00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 1: enjoyed the record, and I because you guys did a 636 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:50,560 Speaker 1: press tore two and Farrell came by the studio. Yes, 637 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 1: And I loved it because I'm a big Farrell fan. 638 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:56,840 Speaker 1: I'm for all. It's got three different versions of Farrell, 639 00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 1: you know, his big band, his little band, just him. Yeah, 640 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 1: And so that was really cool for me. What was 641 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 1: frustrating a bit, though, was some of the Nashville old 642 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 1: school country people are like, what's happening? How is a 643 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:10,800 Speaker 1: little big town with Pharrell? That's got to be a 644 00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:13,960 Speaker 1: little bit unnerving, right, It's a little almost a little 645 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 1: hurtful because we are to our bones country and we 646 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 1: country music is our music, but we love all music 647 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:25,240 Speaker 1: and we the four of us is such a melting 648 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 1: pot of influences, and when we were approached by someone 649 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 1: as genius as Pharrell, we could not turn that down. 650 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 1: And we were just having fun. We weren't taking ourselves 651 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 1: too seriously. We weren't trying to, like I said before, 652 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 1: go pop or change teams. We were just having a 653 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:43,840 Speaker 1: ball in the studio and that's all that was. When 654 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 1: you write, are you a melody writer first? Or are 655 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 1: you a lyric writer? Because it just for those listening. 656 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:51,480 Speaker 1: I have friends that are both, and some will sit 657 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:53,520 Speaker 1: with the guitar and just do that's a Buddha and 658 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: then insert the words over the melody that's written. And 659 00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:59,200 Speaker 1: some will write the words and then assign the melody 660 00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:02,880 Speaker 1: to the lyric. How do you write? Usually to me personally, 661 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 1: it's words that come first, and um, I'll make some notes, 662 00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:08,799 Speaker 1: you know, something will come to me and I'll I'll 663 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 1: be like, oh, I gotta write that down before I 664 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 1: forget it, and then maybe later I'll work on some 665 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:14,839 Speaker 1: more lyric to go with it. And so so it's 666 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:17,800 Speaker 1: usually that that comes first in the early days that 667 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:19,400 Speaker 1: all you guys just sit around and write songs all 668 00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 1: the time. Is that what you did every day? Almost 669 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,359 Speaker 1: almost every day the first couple of years we were together. Yeah, 670 00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:29,719 Speaker 1: so he sat around. Not many of them were very good, 671 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:32,719 Speaker 1: well early on they probably weren't. Yeah, I mean that's 672 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 1: the story. I was talking to Ryan Herd, who's a songwriter, artist, 673 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:41,000 Speaker 1: and he's married to Maran now, but he has like, 674 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 1: man I rose in terrible songs on my songwriter. I'm 675 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 1: such a fan of songwriters, and he's a man I 676 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 1: moved to town because he graduated with like a sociology degree. 677 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,840 Speaker 1: Really wasn't gonna do music. Wow. Yeah, And he's like, 678 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 1: you know, I started writing songs and they were really bad, 679 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 1: but I thought I can improve at it. Like, man, 680 00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:58,359 Speaker 1: they were so bad at the beginning. Yeah, some of 681 00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 1: ours were too, Some of were doozies. You ever keep 682 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:07,239 Speaker 1: oh yeah, yeah, yeah, it feels like not long ago. 683 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:10,400 Speaker 1: It's usually Philip that pulls out the old songs. He 684 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:13,480 Speaker 1: remembers every word, every every melody. Has there ever been 685 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:14,680 Speaker 1: a time with all four of you guys were so 686 00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:15,800 Speaker 1: much said Hey, I want to step out and do 687 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:19,359 Speaker 1: something by myself.

Well, when 724 00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:06,720 Speaker 1: I was a little tiny girl, I used to pretend 725 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:09,439 Speaker 1: like I had a cooking show. Yeah, I would stand 726 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:11,279 Speaker 1: on a stool in the kitchen with a bowl and 727 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:14,000 Speaker 1: a wooden spoon, and I would just pretend and I 728 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 1: just talked to nobody and just pretend like I was cooking. 729 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:19,080 Speaker 1: And I had this really silly voice that I used, 730 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:22,799 Speaker 1: and I was a chef on a TV show. Um, 731 00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:25,719 Speaker 1: I don't I don't know where that came from, but 732 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 1: I did it all the time. And then you know, 733 00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 1: that kind of went on the back burner. I never 734 00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:37,360 Speaker 1: even thought about it again until Jason, my manager, called me, Um, 735 00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:39,360 Speaker 1: I don't know, several years ago and said, are you 736 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:43,160 Speaker 1: sitting down? And I said no, but I will. And 737 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:45,600 Speaker 1: he said, how do you feel about doing a cooking show? 738 00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:48,319 Speaker 1: And I was like, holy yah, that would be amazing. 739 00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:50,600 Speaker 1: I mean it. It had become a dream of mine 740 00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 1: again because I love to cook, and I you know, 741 00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:57,759 Speaker 1: I cook for people a lot, and um, I love it. 742 00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:00,959 Speaker 1: It's definitely a passion of mine a young girl, would 743 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,759 Speaker 1: you have rather been a singer or a chef? At 744 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:08,560 Speaker 1: ten years old? At ten years old, I started getting 745 00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 1: the singing bug because I had sung a little bit 746 00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:14,960 Speaker 1: in church and then probably eleven I was probably my 747 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:18,719 Speaker 1: first talent show at eleven UM and then I really 748 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:21,960 Speaker 1: caught the bug but I always still cooked, but cooked, 749 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:23,759 Speaker 1: But then I didn't think about cooking as a as 750 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:25,919 Speaker 1: a career at that point when you say you caught 751 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:28,279 Speaker 1: the bug, was it because you were looking? Because for me, 752 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:30,800 Speaker 1: performing and doing stand up or being on the radio, 753 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:33,000 Speaker 1: I feel like it's a search for some kind of love, 754 00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 1: Like I really is, Like that's that's I'm terrible at 755 00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:37,719 Speaker 1: accepting it, and so I go on, I try to 756 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:39,839 Speaker 1: get it from strangers. It's back to your therapy part 757 00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:44,480 Speaker 1: for sure. Absolutely, and so and that's not funny. I'm 758 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:47,239 Speaker 1: not laughing at that. But I think it's so self 759 00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:50,120 Speaker 1: aware of it and I work on it. And but 760 00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:52,200 Speaker 1: for me, that's where the performance comes in and I'm 761 00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:56,359 Speaker 1: searching for some sort of validation or so, why you 762 00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 1: why did you start with singing? Were you just so 763 00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:02,840 Speaker 1: good at it? You enjoy it? Were you looking for love? Uh? No, 764 00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:05,680 Speaker 1: I felt very loved. I wasn't looking for love. I 765 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:10,640 Speaker 1: enjoyed it, and I did. I did enjoy the the accolade, 766 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 1: you know in the applause. I've had a talent, but 767 00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:19,279 Speaker 1: I wouldn't like Taylor Swift good you know when I 768 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:23,320 Speaker 1: was a little but um, yeah, everybody around me, I 769 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:26,680 Speaker 1: thought that I was talented, which now that probably encouraged 770 00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:29,120 Speaker 1: me to do another talent show and another talent show 771 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:32,640 Speaker 1: and then sing started singing for the Rotary Club or 772 00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:34,920 Speaker 1: whoever would have me and my daddy would drive me, 773 00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:37,600 Speaker 1: you know, all over the state of Georgia, whoever would 774 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:41,400 Speaker 1: listen to me sing for whatever function it was. And um, 775 00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 1: probably the encouragement of that grooma desire and you were 776 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:50,839 Speaker 1: good at you had a god given talent too. Yeah, 777 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:54,279 Speaker 1: did you take less you work on it? Did you? Um? Not? 778 00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:56,920 Speaker 1: At first? My daddy is a singer and my sister 779 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:59,520 Speaker 1: is a singer. Um, so it was always we always 780 00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:04,680 Speaker 1: did it. But I started taking voice lessons, uh late 781 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:08,160 Speaker 1: in high school and then in college. Is it a 782 00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:09,719 Speaker 1: thing where what if one of you guys get sick? 783 00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:11,839 Speaker 1: We ever fake it like one of you four and 784 00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:15,000 Speaker 1: just move your mouth because it's such a full group. 785 00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:19,000 Speaker 1: But you're probably so strong that maybe you don't have 786 00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:20,759 Speaker 1: to sing that hard if one of you go down. 787 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:22,680 Speaker 1: Have you ever to do that?
