We had the drain pulled on that freezer, driving around, just letting that old chalky sludge pour out of that chalky I. 00:06:16 Speaker 2: Will say that it was when I pulled the bolt out with plumbing wire plumbing tape around it. 00:06:22 Speaker 1: But I didn't have it. 00:06:23 Speaker 2: No, I made it to plug it while we were driving on the road, and then we got to an undisclosed area and pulled the plug and just let it all go out. 00:06:31 Speaker 1: Yeah, it looks like it looked like puke coming out of that hole. 00:06:34 Speaker 2: It was disgusting.

Ye there, What's what story? What's what's the story. 00:07:00 Speaker 3: Okay, So we were talking about like veneers, right, which everybody in Nashville is getting veneers. You know I got If you don't know this, I got veneers. I got him done by doctor neighbors. 00:07:09 Speaker 1: Shout shout out the podcast, the podcast. 00:07:14 Speaker 3: Give me some uh. And you know I told him when I went and got my teeth, and I was like, you know, I want them to look natural, but you know, still like she's got some nice teeth, right. 00:07:23 Speaker 1: That's exactly what I thought. 00:07:25 Speaker 3: Thank you, Thank you, Anna, because thank you. But my dad has veneers and he's probably gonna come me for saying this, but like, he's it's so funny because my dad owns a tire shop. Put me like, let me put me put him in Like, I gotta give you a description. 00:07:41 Speaker 1: Of my dad. 00:07:42 Speaker 3: Heise the man. So he's owned his own tire shop since he was twenty three. He's from Louisiana, big l s U fan talks real country. 00:07:50 Speaker 1: Okay, he's probably pretty pissed right now about you. 00:07:52 Speaker 3: Oh, he's so upset. He's like I was cheering with the A and M fans. 00:07:55 Speaker 1: At the end of it. 00:07:56 Speaker 3: I didn't even care anymore. I was like, he was pissed. Might get huh maybe, but he's he was pretty pretty upset. But anyways, I have a distinctive memory. So we would always go over We would always cross the border and go to Mexico for my dad to get dental work done. Okay, literally, I'm not kidding you. Okay, So I remember, like us walk, you know, going over the border. You know, we would get like and you know, when you're walking down that main street right by the border, they're selling blankets, They're selling you know, bracelets, everybody's selling something and you know, I don't know, I don't know how to speak Spanish at ten and eleven years old, so I'm just like be bobbing with my dad and my stepmom and this he was going to get veneers in Mexico. So we And it's so funny now knowing now being you know, in my I'm now in my early thirties and thirty one, and I now have like a dental experience in my life. Knowing that we went to like some sketchy place to go get my dad's veneers is hilarious. But you know, he got a deal. It's like two hundred dollars tooth out there, and he's like and here it's like I don't know, but to get a fresh fresh coat of paint on them teeth is like thirty grand and like it's insane. How much veneers are? They're insane. I did not pay that. 00:09:16 Speaker 1: How many teeth are in your head, Yeah. 00:09:18 Speaker 3: But it depends on how many you get. So but anyways, so we get to this, We get to this dentnis place and it's a barber shop and in the back got you guys to get a new teeth. So I remember I remember like sitting in like the chairs and I'm watching people come in to get their hair cut, and my dad comes in and the guy had to take a lunch break, and this is, you know, twenty years ago, and like that's back when they shaved your teeth down, like really like small to put the veneers on top. I didn't like, they didn't shave my teeth down, like there's new ways to do it now. But my daddy came out and he smiled, and I didn't know what veneers were, and I didn't know what was happening. But when he smiled, he was being funny because my dad's kind of crazy, and he was like, look at this and he smile, and I was like, oh my god, my dad has no teeth, like what I thought. 00:10:04 Speaker 1: I was like, what happened? 00:10:08 Speaker 3: But then he got him done. They actually didn't look too bad, you. 00:10:10 Speaker 1: Know, now twenty years later, they look pretty good. 00:10:14 Speaker 3: I mean they look natural. I wouldn't say they look like the way veneers look now like mine, but it looks fine. 00:10:21 Speaker 1: But I wonder if they're still throwing the discount down. 00:10:25 Speaker 3: Go to Mexico and might get my teeth hut. I mean they go down that you can't wait it for warn it all rook and I you know, you go, He's just like he still goes there and does his I mean, oh, hell yeah, my dad still goes there to get his teeth thumb. He's crazy. 00:10:37 Speaker 1: So you can just I don't know. I don't know anything about that life. 00:10:40 Speaker 3: I don't know anything about that life either, because I feel my dad. It's like, it's not like my dad don't ain't got money. That's the funniest thing. Then boomers baby then baby boomers, they don't want to I don't want to waste that money. 00:10:50 Speaker 1: I don't either. 00:10:51 Speaker 3: I get it. 00:10:51 Speaker 1: I understand it. I mean us like, okay, I guess we need to intro who we have. Let's go right back to that's great stuff. We got a mom. 00:11:02 Speaker 2: Todaisy a two time ACM nominee, certified country Girl, Text certified, Popping over the Border Again, Dental Work Done or Day, certified Platinum artist. Most certainly recently toured direct support for al Dean on his world tour Ray Lynn. 00:11:18 Speaker 1: Gods God's Country. Where are you saying? Go us down? Homeboys are about a deal? It doesn't it doesn't, it doesn't matter what's in the bank account on you know, it's kind of the pursuit of the deal. 00:11:37 Speaker 2: That's still allure. It's not even really and it's just the satisfaction that. For instance, yesterday I was riding around with Dad as a whole is a whole thing with his freezer going out. 00:11:47 Speaker 1: Oh. He told me about that this morning, bro dude. 00:11:50 Speaker 2: And he called me and was like, and I was like, hey, man, do you need some help? At ten o'clock, I was like, got a full day of stuff. 00:11:54 Speaker 1: Do you need some help? He's like, sure, you were on the phone, and I just stayed sided. He didn't know I was on I. 00:11:58 Speaker 2: Didn't get home till too. I didn't get home till two thirty. What it was a whole thing? 00:12:01 Speaker 1: Hey, did you know that happens to be a Dennis favorite time with this? 00:12:04 Speaker 3: Wait, I'm at sister by the way, which wait to wait? Yeah, Lindsay the one that does social media. Oh yeah, yeah, she's super sweet. Where well, I when I was an independent artist. Because I was independent for like five years, I worked with the company that she worked with for a little bit. She's super sweet. And that's what she told me about this next story I have for you. Oh no, are you ready for this? Let's go I don't know. I don't know if you're ready for this though. 00:12:30 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't. I kind of don't want to. 00:12:32 Speaker 3: Be read like we were. You know, we were catching up because it was, you know, like first time meeting each others ask her where she's from, all the things like, you know, and then we got on the subject in my family and I'm from Texas, but I grew I grew up in Baytown. I know you're from Town, Texas. 00:12:48 Speaker 1: I might know the story. 00:12:49 Speaker 3: And my my cousin is like the lead singer of a band called Leland, you know, which is their you know, big Christian band nominated for Grammy. Is awesome, y'all. When you were in a band called Freshman fifteen, me, you came to our youth group and played a show. I still remember that sticker. It was like black and red with stars and the pedestrian and it was pretty cool. Time. Man did not know that that was you, but that was pretty I was like, heck, yeah, so Christian bop music you could see. 00:13:26 Speaker 1: You should see those posters Freshman fifteen. It was awesome. 00:13:31 Speaker 3: They were great and I was so excited, like of course he was. And now you're wanting to be a cowboy, you know, he chases the money. I'll just say this, it was a fun time. 00:13:48 Speaker 1: I remember playing Baytown and I remember you had a cousin named jack. 00:13:52 Speaker 3: Yes, my cousin Jacky drums. No, No, he was playing piano. My brother was bass in the band that night. 00:14:01 Speaker 1: That night. Here's what I remember when we came to Baytown. Okay, come on, So Leland was in a competition with us up here in some weird probably super scammy battles of the Christian bands. Yeah, it was something like that. 00:14:14 Speaker 3: It was something Royal Taylor in that too, because Royal Taylor would come to Army. 00:14:17 Speaker 1: It has literally been twenty five. 00:14:19 Speaker 3: It has has longer. It had to have been. 00:14:23 Speaker 2: It was the band that you used to say, we're in competition with these guys, but they were like they were like having hits and. 00:14:29 Speaker 1: We were in that. 00:14:30 Speaker 4: Yeah. 00:14:31 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it was like that was like we're in competition that. I was like, I don't think I see dude all the time. Yeah, and I'm like, I don't. 00:14:39 Speaker 3: Think you're in competition, And this is no, no, no digging you Matt. 00:14:44 Speaker 1: But listen, no way. 00:14:46 Speaker 3: He had those shoes on where it's like they look like socks and your they have individual tothe. 00:14:53 Speaker 2: Yeah, you can't tell me that that the sock thing between this toe and this toe is night rush continues. 00:15:02 Speaker 1: So we went to Baytown that night and I and we were so broke. We had a like we stayed with. 00:15:08 Speaker 3: Our family, that makes sense. 00:15:11 Speaker 1: And me, me and uh, possibly your brother, possibly your cousin and Leland all went we rode around house Town and stole street signs all night long. Oh gosh, a heck of a night. It was not so much. 00:15:27 Speaker 3: It's probably my brother Jake. My brother Jake's hilarious. 00:15:29 Speaker 1: Probably, yeah, probably, I remember I had a beard. 00:15:32 Speaker 3: Whoever I was hanging Oh no, you were talking about Mike. Mike, Mike, He's. 00:15:36 Speaker 1: Crazy, Yeah, Ben, super nice guys. Uh. It was like we just came hung out, played y'alls church. You were there, and they were still there. As a little teenager kid, they went in still street soon. So how many Honestly, if I graduated oh two, that would have been four. How old were you at O four O five? 00:15:56 Speaker 3: It was twenty years age. I was like eight or nine. Yeah, that was little. I was a little I was a little munchkin. Yeah, I mean that's back when I was eating star crunches playing GameCube, like you know one of them William Street, Baytown, Texas. 00:16:08 Speaker 1: You know Baytown. I've been there. I've spin it out there. 00:16:11 Speaker 3: That is so fun. 00:16:13 Speaker 1: And I slept all the way back to we were from Missisippi at the time. We weren't. 00:16:17 Speaker 3: That's so it's just so crazy to me how life works and everything just comes here. 00:16:23 Speaker 1: Are you. 00:16:28 Speaker 5: All? 00:16:28 Speaker 1: Yeah? Okay, yeah, that's a crazy story. 00:16:32 Speaker 3: But I had to tell you that story. Man. 00:16:34 Speaker 1: I'm glad I can influence. I had influence on your musical. 00:16:38 Speaker 3: You did. I remember? I was like, you know, I don't remember what song you sang that sticker though, because it was on my marketing major. 00:16:49 Speaker 2: What's the song? What's the what was the Freshman's fifteenth song? 00:16:55 Speaker 1: It come on? 00:16:56 Speaker 3: You want to hear it? 00:16:57 Speaker 1: We want to hear it? What is it this? You got a Sweater? Yeah? 00:17:01 Speaker 3: We Got a sweater? 00:17:02 Speaker 1: Is a sweater song? All I remember is I wish I knew it. All I mean to all I remember. 00:17:07 Speaker 3: Was oh, heck yeah, think about it, like you don't remember it, you don't even remember it. 00:17:19 Speaker 1: I didn't get any there's a sweater? You need my sweat. 00:17:29 Speaker 3: That is so that is the most incredible thing ever. And you gotta think about it, you know. I'm I'm like nine ten Disney Channel days, you know, boy bands or where it's at nine degrees. 00:17:40 Speaker 1: No doubt we were cool, man. I don't regret start you can't. Are we talking? 00:17:47 Speaker 3: You can't regret those days? 00:17:48 Speaker 1: Many were they were they were. I was constructing the foundation for my musical. 00:17:55 Speaker 3: Life and career. 00:17:56 Speaker 1: Isn't it that? 00:17:58 Speaker 3: Hey? 00:17:58 Speaker 1: I love it too, man, And you know what, sometimes I still go back and listen like. 00:18:03 Speaker 3: Of course lines, Yeah, I go. I go back and listen to like my first demos when I moved to town, and I always wonder, why the hell did anybody write with me? I'm like, what, you got to write bad one before you write the good ones. 00:18:19 Speaker 2: That's the thing though, It's like you're like, man, what was I thinking? But like you, we're all a little bit probably seen behind the curtain, a little jaded. 00:18:28 Speaker 1: Yeah, come to town. 00:18:29 Speaker 2: But when you come to town that first like you move here and you're chasing the dream and you're doing the thing like there's still nobody can tell you nothing, man, And that's what that's the beauty of it is like, yeah, is you just it doesn't matter how bad your songs are or whatever. Like you're in town, You're doing going, You're going, Like I just want. 00:18:45 Speaker 3: To make myself crunch. Like I cringe sometimes thinking about making people sit in my truck and listen to my demos when I was trying to figure it out. Like, I apologize to anybody that had to sit in my race red forward half one fifty in the first five years of me living here and listening to my demos because I thought I was cool. 00:19:01 Speaker 1: Yeah, man, we all did. 00:19:02 Speaker 3: And I was just figuring, you're so good. 00:19:07 Speaker 1: I think what classifies anybody as being cool in Nashville, it's not whether they're good or not. It's whether they took the leap. Dude. Yeah, it's a leap. It's a terrifying, daunting leap. And then when you take it, you're in and you're like, Okay, I don't have any money, I don't have any connections. Yeah, I kind of know that one guy that's an intern at that one place that knows that one guy who has had a hit in the eighties, and so you go right with him for like six weeks because he's the only one that'll take you and like you're plowing this trench path to forever and you don't even recognize it. And it takes balls to do. 00:19:45 Speaker 3: That, it does. I came here after the Voice because the voice was in. I actually came at sixteen. 00:19:52 Speaker 1: Did you have the voice? 00:19:53 Speaker 3: No? No? No? 00:19:55 Speaker 1: Yeah, you were the like the one right? 00:19:56 Speaker 3: Yeah? I mean I didn't win. 00:19:58 Speaker 1: I was top who did well? 00:20:00 Speaker 3: A guy named Jermaine Paul. He played. He was a backup singer for Release Keys. 00:20:04 Speaker 1: Shout out, Jermaine, I hope you're doing well. But that was your show? 00:20:08 Speaker 5: Is that? 00:20:09 Speaker 1: How is that how the relationship with Blake and all that started happening? Yeah? 00:20:12 Speaker 3: So I So I came to Nashville at I would come back and forth sixteen seventeen years old to write wow because I met this woman in LA named Judy Steakey when I was out there doing some auditions and stuff and uh, and she was like, you should go to Nashville and start songwriting. And I was like, oh, I was like I don't really know about it, Okay. I was like I don't know about that because I had been in Nashville so many times with my cousin Leland because we would come out here for gm a week and stuff like that, and and I and like, I, you know, I think some people wanted me to sing Christian music, and I love the Lord more than a lot of people. But I just I'm a little wild, you know. And I was like, I just don't I want to be unapologetically myself and if I'd rather be a country artist and love Jesus than be a Christian artist at the time, and it's really cool to see, honestly a lot of this Christian country thing coming up, like Wilson and some of the I'm obsessed with it. God hasn't called me to that yet. Maybe one day, but I feel like, you know, yeah. 00:21:16 Speaker 1: It was everybody expected us and. 00:21:18 Speaker 3: It's just like it fits some people when it doesn't some others. And so anyways, but this girl sent out my I had written a song called baby That's my type, and it was and it's like, oh, yeah, I need a man. 00:21:33 Speaker 1: A home, my happy love me for who. 00:21:39 Speaker 3: Every day he would treasure me bye. 00:21:45 Speaker 1: But sounds good. 00:21:50 Speaker 3: The kind of man I didn't need to be. I need someone it's gonna love me for all my life, or you're another hook bab that's my time. First song. Well, that song was you know, a little guitar vocal that I made on garage band. We sent it out to like, you know, ten different people to write with me, and well, lee Ane Falen was working with me from ASCAP. She had heard the song. I was like, oh, there's some potential here, and so then she's like, I'm gonna send this out to some writers. Probably nobody's gonna want to write with you. Just f y I which and I love people sitting low bars, you know, like, and I've yeah, and I appreciate that, like I don't want and I've never thought like I've been told no a million times like I you know, I don't really care. I'm just like, get back up, let's keep going, you know. 00:22:41 Speaker 2: And so shout out to those p r O s too that like don't have to do that, but like when you come to town and sign up with them, they kind of act as a publisher for. 00:22:54 Speaker 3: So all ten wanted to write with me, like and when I think back, and when I think back on it, it was Natalie Hemby, brad tercy Nicole Gallion. This is this is before Nicole Gallion had like massive hits yet and I mean like it was just like incredible writers. I mean, and this was when I was like seventeen, so this is, you know, fifteen years ago. And so anyways, so I just started coming to Nashville, going back and forth to Rite and I was riding with Nicole in April one day and Nicole was like, you should audition for the voice. And I was like, uh, I don't want to audition for the voice, like I don't have a Mariah Carey voice, Like like I feel like all those singing shows you kind of have to be like this crazy high singer. I was like, I'm more of like yeah, I was like, I'm more of like a you know, storyteller. And she said no, but that's the cool thing about the voice is you can have like a unique sounder. Ever, I was like okay, and I was like, well, I do love Lake Shelton and I do love his wife Miranda Lambert at the time. And I was like, okay, well maybe I'll try it out. And so then i'llitioned and I made it directly to the like what do you call the the one where you go to LA because there's like a lot of steps and and then I made it onto the show, and it's just it's really crazy because, like I think about, I feel like I get more nervous now at thirty one than I did at sixteen, Like you know, I that's why I always try to live with the mindset. Like every year when I'm like writing down my goals or whatever I want for the year, I'm a oh, I do it every single year. And honestly, most of the goals that I had for this year like have come to the past. But it's like I do a dream board and I do a cheesy one. I'm not like I buy a crap ton of magazines. I like do all the things, so I cut out things that like I feel like inspire me. 00:24:51 Speaker 1: I go old scrap Oh I'm. 00:24:52 Speaker 3: Scrapbook, and I like it's just a little poster board and it's by my daughter's little homeschool room. So I still stare at that every day when I work with her on her her letters because we're learning ab season right now. But it's uh so, yeah, when I got on the show, like I think about like just that whole process and being like seventeen in LA and my mom and dad staying with me, and and I when I walked out, like on that blind audition, when I tell y'all, I was like it was an out of body experience. I can't even believe that I was on a stage like that at that age, and I wasn't nervous, Like it was just it had to have been like a god thing of like just me knowing that I was meant there for a reason and being there was like supposed to be in there. 00:25:40 Speaker 1: Probably didn't understand the weight of it. 00:25:42 Speaker 3: I didn't under I think the thing is, I didn't understand the weight of what was going on, but I knew that, like it was definitely a god thing. 00:25:48 Speaker 1: And I think that's what kind of sold you on the show. Yeah, like this just reckless, fun entertaining. Yeah, little gal, that's like super spunky and happy to be here. And I think that's what sold you. 00:26:02 Speaker 3: And I will never forget. 00:26:03 Speaker 1: I mean to the point that I thought you won. I thought you so sweet. 00:26:07 Speaker 3: I did not win, but you keep telling people that, Okay, I get it. I but I will say I after the show, but this was so funny. So like you know, my my parents all have a church in Baytown. Obviously I'll played at it. So like you know, I'm the pastor's kid and I'm on the show and they were getting they were getting so much hell because you know, the songs I was singing was hell on heels And what else did I sing? 00:26:35 Speaker 4: Oh? 00:26:35 Speaker 3: I sang wake Up Call about killing a man, and I'll just you know, a bunch of barn burns, right, and what was the other one? Oh? And I sang She's Country by Jason Alding, which is hilarious because I end up going on tour him this year. We talk about all the time, and Jason's one of my good buddies. I love Jason and Britain and so anyways, I uh, when I made it to the next round, and you know, my sweet spiritual grandfather, he would call me my Papa Dale and he'd be like he'd pray over me before every time I'd go on stage or go on stage, and he'd pray over me before I'd go out for the results, and he's like. 00:27:06 Speaker 1: I feel like God. 00:27:07 Speaker 3: I was like, okay, I believe Papaino. Well, when I made it to the next round, I go oh, And then I realized I'm on national television and I grabbed my mouth and I'm the youngest one on the show and the only one that's ever cussed on all the seasons. So when we went back for when Blake was when it was his last episode, because you know, he's not on the show anymore, they brought all of like the fan favorites back. One of the one of the camera guys came up to me and he goes, I will never forget trying to bleep out and you're the only one still to the day, to this day, has cussed on. I was like, yeah, let that stamp made my mark. But you know, that show is incredible because I I was grateful not to win, because I felt like I got enough exposure to get me where I needed to go. And I came here and I was able to kind of think where I wanted to go publishing wise, and ended up signing over a big machine and and it really just kind of started everything for me, which was really cool. 00:28:05 Speaker 1: No Read came in second place in American isol as well. 00:28:09 Speaker 2: Really Disney Disney disney Disneyland American Oh. 00:28:13 Speaker 3: Hell yeah, not disney World, disney. 00:28:15 Speaker 2: Land World, the ones. 00:28:18 Speaker 3: That's disney World. That's better than disney Land, Disneyland smaller. 00:28:22 Speaker 2: So Disney Disney read my dad, we actually got we went into this place because it was it was raining and we'll go check it out. And then they were like auditioning for this year's Disney World American. 00:28:34 Speaker 1: If you won Disney World American issle, you got like a ticket to That's sick thing or whatever it us. Like between red and this one I had, I had. 00:28:44 Speaker 2: I remember I had Jim shorts, a white T shirt in this hat. 00:28:49 Speaker 1: My hair is crazy. Oh, I know exactly. Hang dude, can we go do it? 00:28:52 Speaker 5: Truck? 00:28:54 Speaker 1: Let me let me go up the words. 00:28:55 Speaker 3: Though, you made second place with this one. Yeah, so this didn't get you first place. 00:29:02 Speaker 2: I mean I think there was a politics and going on all right. They were like all those little girls at Disney were like. 00:29:09 Speaker 3: My god, sign our shirts. This is my dad calling me. 00:29:12 Speaker 1: Answer, ask me, ask you if you see in Mexican?

Yes, and it's annoying. It's like I haven't seen it in the time. Yeah, but like, I just don't understand the six seventh thing. And I listen and I get. I mean, I guess I try to be cool too. Sometimes I don't know, maybe. 00:34:20 Speaker 1: Trying to be cool no, parents should not. I haven't seen it in the wild. You've seen it in the world. 00:34:24 Speaker 3: I see it.

I feel like I'm always mad at something. I try to I try to live in the lane of forgiveness, though, you know, I feel like i'm mad at that right now. And I'm mad at the fact. 00:34:47 Speaker 1: That, like you're mad. In fact, Jesus forgives. 00:34:49 Speaker 3: Said no, no, no, no, no, thank you Jesus. Jesus forgives on the daily Hallelujah, Praise God. 00:34:56 Speaker 1: Actually mad at the second point, it's gonna. 00:34:59 Speaker 3: Say, I'm mad at people putting up Christmas so. 00:35:04 Speaker 1: Early, like both y'all, both y'all can get out. 00:35:12 Speaker 3: Let me finish. I'm all about putting Christmas up early, but only like a week before Thanksgiving. But the November first is kind of a lot. And I have a Christmas album coming out soon. I'm excited. You don't know how I got that title. I was at I was at Trader Joe's and I don't know if y'all, like they have that sweet section that's like it's got like basically like just crack sweets like you don't actual sweets. And they have Jingle Jingle pretzels every Christmas, and I was like, I'm gonna write me a song called Jingle Jingle Rock Baby. And I buy those pretzels every year, and I make a little sweet board when I have a little Christmas party. But I don't understand doing it November first. You know, it does bring me happy, but I I think a week before Thanksgiving is aproprise. 00:36:02 Speaker 1: Yeah, November first, it loses some nostout like I do like. 00:36:07 Speaker 3: I like it up a little early. Now, don't get me wrong. I do like it up a little early. But November first was kind of aggressive. 00:36:13 Speaker 2: I mean, I already as a family and our Christmas jammis, though will say. 00:36:16 Speaker 3: That, no, I'm already in my jammis. 00:36:18 Speaker 1: Christ came out. 00:36:19 Speaker 3: Jammies are different. 00:36:21 Speaker 1: I got room for Jimmy. 00:36:22 Speaker 3: But I like love. But I put my pumpkins out late this year, so I'm still enjoying them. I mean, I did a fire this morning. We have a wood fire burning place. Love that little little coffee. 00:36:33 Speaker 1: Here's here's my thing. You know, here's my thing. 00:36:35 Speaker 2: That's what when Christmas. When Christmas comes around and you're doing that, that's can't beat that time. 00:36:39 Speaker 1: I mean, I get it, I get it. But there's also needs to be a complete month. If you're gonna have a month dedicate dedicated to Hallow Halloween, I think there should be a month dedicated And I love Thanksgiving because it's like a month to Halloween. People decorate. I don't Halloween. 00:36:56 Speaker 3: Now, did y'all have y'alls did y'all's church have? 00:36:58 Speaker 1: Like that's a sat like. 00:37:01 Speaker 3: You know, that's what it needs to be, like where they wanted to have something for like the Heathens. You know, they wanted to bring in the people trunk or trees we called ours. Holy ween, I'm not even kidding. Oh my god. I saw one of my girlfriends, you know, Hayes, Like she's a she's a comedian, she's hilarious, and she she was talking, she was on a podcast and she was like, and I think, you know, sometimes like you mentally block out things from your childhood. Do y'all remember those houses, like those haunted houses that were at churches where they would like walk you through like a drunk ank driver in the crash, like the crash somebody shooting somebody or whatever, and then they would be like the gates of Hell. You'd walk to the gates of Hell and they be like, oh, but you can give yourself to Jesus right now, I think about what I think about those things. They were kind of crazy, you know, like. 00:38:03 Speaker 1: That was it was borderline cults. 00:38:05 Speaker 3: It's borderline cultish, like it was kind of insane and very like. 00:38:09 Speaker 2: Then they play that one song that uh bro that was that was because like the last scene of that whole. 00:38:15 Speaker 3: Thing, and then they bring you through the gates of Heaven. 00:38:17 Speaker 1: You know, do you want to do this? 00:38:19 Speaker 3: Yeah, they're not going to give themselbody. 00:38:24 Speaker 1: It's gold and we have kit care. 00:38:26 Speaker 3: And the worst part is, like I remember inviting so many of my friends from school and they probably pushed you to do I know, I'm with it. 00:38:35 Speaker 1: Look I'm with it a little bit. 00:38:37 Speaker 3: When she talked about that, I started laughing because I blocked that out of my memory. 00:38:42 Speaker 1: It's like it was terrifying. It was so terrifying, and you remember you walk in that room and they would scream there walking to be dark. It'd be dark and be dark, and they'd be like and then they go and the lights would come on and there'd be like a dude laying across the car and like sirens and blue and red. Dude, do you want do you want to get saved? 00:39:02 Speaker 4: Yes? 00:39:02 Speaker 1: I do as fast as possible all I want to do six six seven. 00:39:13 Speaker 3: Sorry, just thinking about that, that's probably I got a little religious trauma. 00:39:25 Speaker 1: We all do, for sure, for sure. I mean you think about that, it's it's uh, I cannot be moved back. 00:39:35 Speaker 3: The like they had like the the the Devil's real, but they had the devil and it was just like a mask that they got from spirit Halloween. 00:39:43 Speaker 1: Was no I remember that. I don't remember this. 00:39:45 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm talking about like the. 00:39:47 Speaker 1: Did he come out? 00:39:48 Speaker 4: Yeah? 00:39:48 Speaker 2: He was like do you remember the one? 00:39:53 Speaker 1: Do you remember the one we went the devil that's terrified to take him out? 00:40:04 Speaker 3: He was sitting on like and they were like you can either do this and then they walk you through. 00:40:09 Speaker 1: This something else you went to didn't that's what you did? This was to Wayne. That was Wayne. 00:40:21 Speaker 3: He was like in this black chair and we were at a Baptist church and I'm being scary. 00:40:29 Speaker 1: It was the first time. Even one of her eyes is doing this thing. 00:40:34 Speaker 3: And then and then then you walk through headed and it's like, what are you gonna choose? No, darm I'm gonna choose Heaven, bro, Like. 00:40:42 Speaker 1: Is he prayed to receive Christ? There's cheeks over here. 00:40:44 Speaker 3: If you did, I'm triggering some emotional trauma from your past. 00:40:47 Speaker 1: It's good, get it out, kiss good. The car was blue, The car laid over the hood, bro. Yeah, it was a loot. 00:40:56 Speaker 4: And then they always had the guy that was doing drugs and. 00:41:00 Speaker 1: Good lord, I'm not saying you can't work. Whatever works. 00:41:08 Speaker 3: It probably got a few people saved, and I'm grateful. I was just thinking about that now, like those they wouldn't have that crap now, you know, and back in the day that was all left and right. You know, first back of second Baptist year. 00:41:23 Speaker 1: Do you remember that one show how good the drama team was? 00:41:26 Speaker 2: You remember that one show we went to and that we were on like a choir to or something and the devil, the devil pointed at you. Remember we were like in Branson, Missouri, and we were sitting happened. 00:41:41 Speaker 1: It was happening, like you're damn, this happened but I was way back in the that was like like perched on. 00:41:47 Speaker 2: Its like this, and then he was like like like doing like this any thousands of people at He was like this and then he went. 00:41:57 Speaker 1: And I was like, I was like I read he pointed me. He's like yes, dude, Oh god, okay. 00:42:08 Speaker 3: We gotta go on. 00:42:10 Speaker 2: I could talk about that was amazing that whole thirty five minutes. 00:42:13 Speaker 3: I didn't mean. I didn't mean to make you laugh. 00:42:15 Speaker 1: Oh that's the hardesty laughing on this podcast for sure, thousand percent. Oh how do you just switching? How do you just switching up? 00:42:24 Speaker 5: Now? 00:42:25 Speaker 1: Because we got to talk music. 00:42:26 Speaker 3: We got I had a great summer with Jayson Aldeans. 00:42:28 Speaker 1: That's what we're going talk about. It's a great transition, great. 00:42:32 Speaker 3: Position. 00:42:33 Speaker 2: So you're close with with Jason and Brittany and then what was that? 00:42:37 Speaker 1: What's that tour? Like? 00:42:39 Speaker 3: It was a blast. It was me and Nate Smith and Jason and Nate is so sweet in his camp. It felt like my favorite thing. So I've never been like over the years, like I feel like I would just like pop it on tours like two or three weekends here, two or three weekends there. But I've never fully like been on like forty dates the whole summer. Like I've just I've been like, you know, a few dates with a certain artist, but never the full time. Oh it takes I take it back. I did with Blake, but Blake just his tours are so short, so we would do like fourteen shows, you know, but it was his full tour, but that's when he was on the voice, so he would only do you know, fourteen to twenty shows. But I did do that full tour, but it wasn't like it wasn't like the grind of Like we had thirty five shows on this tour, so we like all like you know, really got to bond and stuff. But it was awesome. I you know, I really enjoyed getting to know his band. His band is so awesome. They've been together for like twenty years. Jason's band and oh, Curtin Toli are the best. They're so kind and then even like Nate's crew was super sweet. But I've you know, I've known Jason and Brett for a long time, and Jason was one of the first people I met in town. So the first like after party I went to when I was like eighteen with Blake and the crew I met. I'll never forget meeting Luke, Brian and meeting Jason, and Jason was one of the only people that like asked me where I was from and like asked me questions about my wife and and I was like, Oh, this this guy's actually really kind. So to be able to Luke was kind. Luke was just Luke was bebopping everywhere. But I'm saying like he was the first artist that like and like just asked me, like, you know, besides Blake, who was like like a dad slash uncle like he's the best, but like he you know, asked me questions. Was really cool. But yeah, we had it. We had a really great time. It was fun. Like they they're so like it's cool to be with like an artist that's been touring enough where they're just confident in it and it's like everybody's a family because you tour with some artists and it's like security's uptight. These peop I'm not saying like like they have their it's a well oil machine, but everybody's chill. They've been doing it forever. It's professional. But I didn't feel like I was like tiptoeing around an artist or anything like that. And I that's why I just I love travel with my friends. And so it was fun. Me and Brittany had a blast this summer. My daughter came out. So my daughter was probably on like three fourths of the tour, so she got her own like little past. She made everybody friendship for every she like all the crew guys. Everybody loved Daisy, right, so Daisy would just be fist. She does know that this is her life. She's four and where she was three this summer, and she would be like fist pumping everybody. And we made everybody friendship bracelets. Those those crew guys wearing their like pink and blue friendship bracelets and like like it was like they say that they're still wearing them, like it's so cute. But we had a We had a really really good time, and I the fans were awesome. I do like I was the first of three, so it was me, and then it was Nate and then it was Jason, and I did a meet and greet after every show, and I mean, I think it's important when you have those opportunities to pour into the fans. You know, I only got you know, one moment to be able to meet as many people as I can, and I still do them, and I'm gonna continue to do after show meeting greets and just till I can't. And I think it's important to do that, invest in the people that have invested in you. 00:46:01 Speaker 1: So, yeah, what's yours? 00:46:03 Speaker 3: It's fun. 00:46:04 Speaker 2: So you say, like Blake's like a daddy, Like, yeah, he's awesome. Do you have like one story that sticks out about him or y'all? 00:46:12 Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, So this is so funny. So I we were playing a show and I hadn't seen him him forever, and he wanted to come to one of our shows. And this was, oh my gosh, I'm trying to think this is probably me and Josh just got married, so maybe twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen. I could look at my phone and figure it out. But he you know, this is when he was like the batch life. You know, Blake was going everywhere because he was single, just doing whatever. And so he said, uh, I want to come to your show in Knoxville, and I was like okay. So he flew his private plane into into Knoxville and I was playing a radio show with like Justin Moore and other a few other artists, and he gets to the he gets to the bus and it's me and my husband Josh and the crew and and nobody could believe that Blake was coming to my show. Like, you know, I was like, no, he's coming, like we haven't seen him forever, like he wanted just to come. So he gets out of the car and he has a baby kangaroo and a pouch okay, and he's wearing this pouch and I was like, what are you wearing? He goes, oh, I got this kangaroo. I couldn't leave it at the house. And I was like, what you have a kangaroo in that pouch? 00:47:16 Speaker 1: Where were you playing? 00:47:17 Speaker 3: And I was playing it. It was like a radio show, you know those radio shows, So it was like that an arena. It was a full band, but it was a radio show because Blake was gonna come out and sing with me. But he couldn't sing with me because the other radio station found out that he was there and they were like, oh, you don't want him to call mel you know, they were they were piste off. But it was like he just came to be like a friend. He didn't come to like. 00:47:38 Speaker 1: With a baby kangaroo. 00:47:39 Speaker 3: Well, with the baby came. He wasn't coming to like make a stand of like this is my favorite station. He was just coming just to come whatever. So anyways, I so he has the kangaroo and comes on the bus and my husband is like super nurturing, super sweet, and like we we were all gonna go inside to watch an artist play. And he's like, oh, you can just hang him on the door and leave him in the bus. Josh was like, you're not leaving this baby kangaroo in here. Like my husband like started getting like really like it was like, so Josh wore the baby kangaroo the whole time. I have a picture of them. He just holding this baby kangaro and and the thing is like it was in the pouch, like it was so c like opened the pouch he would like hop in like it's like it's his mom. It was so cool. But after the show, we were like, you know, where should we go eat? Well, let's go to the best place in America, Texas Roadhouse. Baby, that is my freaking place. I love to like two different things. If I've eaten a lot of rolls and a lot of fried pickles and I wanted to feel like a little skinny. You can't really feel skinny there. I get the steak salad with two things a ranch, which is still not healthy, but you know if I like, don't care it's not too or season or whatever. I still eat the rolls, still eat the fried pickles. And I get the stirline steak with loaded mashed potatoes, sour cream. 00:48:54 Speaker 1: Everything. It's good, cinnamon butter. Oh yeah. 00:49:01 Speaker 3: So we all went to Texas Roadhouse after the show and it was like ten o'clock at night, and all those like all the waiting staff was just so kind, like we had our own table. They were. Of course, Blake is Blake and he's being so sweet to everybody, and it was just like it was just such a fun time. The kangaroo, I think, was taking a nap on the bus finally, but it was just, you know, he is just One thing I'll say about Blake is he truly loves the people he loves. But that but this part of the story is we were trying to figure out like you know, we were trying to you know, he's he's a bachelor, so we were like, you should you should date Gwenn and I told him this at this show.

I was like, dude, just make up, just ask her out, and he like he's like he wasn't gonna do it, and then he did a couple of weeks later, and then the man worked out. I was like, she needs a cowboy man. She's never been loved by a country boy. When it came out, because he was like she would I was like, no, man, come on, and me and Josh were egging it on. All of us were egging it on to take her out on a day and then he ended up taking on a day and. 00:50:16 Speaker 1: Then bam, a celebrity matchmaker that was me and I love Gwen Gwennis. 00:50:24 Speaker 3: So I felt really embarrassed because, like you know, I've been a huge I love her style, like I love wild style.

Remember haired Juku baron back in the day, Well, she had like a whole brand haird I don't know how to spell it. House homeschool.

But she came to our wedding, which was cool. 00:51:19 Speaker 4: Yeah, she. 00:51:23 Speaker 3: She is time, but she's beautiful. She's so kind and her and Blake at the wedding, they stayed till the very end, till we walked out with the bubbles, like they didn't like they didn't just like jet out, like and everybody, you know, all my crazy Louisiana family and text fan were going up there and taking I told and it was a no phone wedding, but you know, you have a few stragglers always.

She's so cool her pants tucked into boots and and that's like so the thing. 00:52:04 Speaker 3: I love about her and seeing her with Blake is she just she just jumped into his world and she does it so gracefully. I feel like she's you know, she just she took it all in. And I think it's really cool. They're really great together. 00:52:17 Speaker 1: Have you ever been have you ever been?

He's a little crazy. 00:53:34 Speaker 3: I might be a little crazy. 00:53:36 Speaker 1: M hmm. I think it was the Rubber Duck pool party. Well, yeah, at the end of that, I thought I might be a little crazy. 00:53:50 Speaker 3: I'm a little crazy about the world. 00:53:54 Speaker 1: I love that song. 00:53:55 Speaker 3: I mean, I think what one I love that song? I mean, I think a crazy moment for Remember when it snowed. 00:54:01 Speaker 1: Earlier this year, snowed earlier this year. 00:54:05 Speaker 3: I was like, well, I'm sorry, snowed in like January of twenty twenty five. You know, we get out, we get out the one we get our one week snow and that's all we can handle. We have a pool. Y'all. We got a pool. Okay, you're rich, you got pool, but we had a pool. We got a pool. And I'm pretty much can be peer pressured in anything, you know, especially for the gram, you know, but not really. I mean I can't really, but you know, I was like and all of our buddies we were jumping in the pool, and I was like, I'm about to jump in the pool and do it for the ground, but I didn't like prepare for like, well, they I'm I'm a little lady, okay, and they're like, you know, I'm a little But I was stupid and I didn't die. Well, I don't really dive, but I should have dove in the water and came up in the shallow land. But I jumped in and came up in the deep and I was swimming and it's so I'm doggy paddle swimming and I can't catch. I thought I was dying. I'm not gonna lie and I was swimming and you can't even hear im. Go fuck, I'm literally cussing, but you can't even hear me cussing because I'm just like and then I didn't have shoes ready, so I'm walking in the snow. I put on I did put on a bucket, had a fuzzy bucket out and I'm walking in the snow and I'm and I was like, Okay, I'm insane. But then I got a lot of views, which is all that matters. But I was, I think that's kind of crazy. 00:55:34 Speaker 1: The last time I would think I'm a little crazy, but the world's insane was when we tried to get that freaking. 00:55:41 Speaker 2: Deer blind deer house and that things. I took the whole time. I took the whole family. The deer house is awesome. 00:55:48 Speaker 1: We saw have I told the story out here? I have Okay, make it quick. On Marketplace there was a amish deer house which is like an easy three to one thousand dollars deer build him really really will This guy has got one four hundred dollars. But you got deal, but you got to come get it. That's where the gigi for sure. So me and reload up my tractor. We go all the way down there, sucker for a deal. 00:56:18 Speaker 2: There you go, Facebook, Facebook, Marketplace junkies. We we did it just the other day with a freezer. 00:56:23 Speaker 1: My three year old son was with us in the shadow of this tilted four thousand pound box like at an angle like this. We're trying to get it on the trailer because there's you have to like. 00:56:39 Speaker 2: We got a six by twelve trailer and the thing's nine foot wide. Oh it was matt. 00:56:46 Speaker 1: Literally we got to the point to where Reid was like, I gotta put this thing down down, and I was like, well, just set it down, tractor. 00:56:55 Speaker 3: Or do you get it? 00:56:56 Speaker 1: We broke so Amish an incredible nothing bro They went and s can you say, surely okay, okay, she's good? 00:57:06 Speaker 3: Okay, I mean, I hope everything is bill Amishy because everything perfectly an Amish zoo on the road. 00:57:16 Speaker 1: I wish did all of my dear, have you ever been doing Amish zoo? What makes sense? 00:57:21 Speaker 3: I played? I played somewhere in Indiana and it was like basically and by the way, I have So we went on Amish Zoo. So there's a bunch of Amish families. They're so kind, and then then there's them, and then there's me and Daisy. And Daisy's got cheetah bows and cheetah shirt. I'm like, you know, you're just you know, doing me, and so like I it was that with that part, because you know, those zoos are a little sketch, but so you can get away. 00:57:47 Speaker 1: I don't know anything about you. 00:57:48 Speaker 3: Can pet really any animal like pigs. 00:57:52 Speaker 1: Here's a yard dog, Americans like longhorn, like they had all all kinds of animals, zebra and stuff. So it's kind of for me. 00:58:01 Speaker 3: It's for me, but also like you can pet pigs, you can pet goat. It was so fun, but it was like, but you know, there's definitely some questionable like well, I feel like any of those like homemade zoos, like you're wondering, like it kind of reminds me a little tiger kingish, you know, but not the armers did. Now. I did go to a zoo in Charlotte, North Carolina, and we could feed the animals in the car and my dad this is one of my favorite things. So my dad had like you know, we had we had our food, and we didn't know what we were gonna expect. This whole camel put its whole head in our car and Dad goes give it, give it, and he just starts giving him. He gave him the whole thing that he was so nervous, and it was so funny I love a sketchy zoo. 00:58:55 Speaker 2: I got chest punched. I got chest punched by a black panther and a sketchy zoo. Swear I was, I was tiny, had glasses. There was this woman in sarah gord To, Tennessee, and we called her. Don't put her on We called her the cat lady. She's probably not alive, yes, and uh, don't put her on blasts. 00:59:11 Speaker 1: She literally had like it was like a like a just a brick style southern home on a dirt road ran and the old ranch and and there was a cage on the side of her house. 00:59:21 Speaker 2: She had like ten cages back there. There was a cage on the side of her house that had a cat or a dog door going into her house where panthers were coming, I swear to God. 00:59:29 Speaker 1: And then that she had laggers, remember like a Tiberian stuff. It was massively, but I was. They had They had a viewing deck where you could like walk out, walk up these steps and get on a deck. And that's I think she finally got caught. I don't think she was supposed to be doing any of that. Dude, is funny. 00:59:51 Speaker 5: Dude. 00:59:51 Speaker 3: My husband went to where he was in Fayeteville for a little bit because she was in the military and he lived in North Carolina and there was a zoo out there and it was sketchy, but I loved it. Could actually sketchy zoos are great. And it's like this little monkey he had and he was like, wore diaper, which is kind of weird, like the monkey that's on pirates like Caribbean. Oh yeah, but I buy with that stuff. 01:00:15 Speaker 4: You might die. 01:00:16 Speaker 1: Not the best time in your live back. Okay, first off, I don't love them. I don't trust the monkey. 01:00:22 Speaker 3: A monkey and the diaper is pretty awesome. 01:00:23 Speaker 1: If you're walking around with a monkey and the diaper, I don't want to pay. 01:00:25 Speaker 3: Because you don't want I don't even kid At the Amish Zoo that night, I had a show and when I was singing, uh, I was singing red Neck Woman and because that's my favorite cover. And in the back, where's all these women, like these Almish women dancing to red Neck Woman and I and I pointed the mask and I was like, where y'all heard this song? And I even said it and they didn't. They didn't really answer my question, but it was really awesome. They were dancing and singing. I appreciate that, though, Man, sometimes I just. 01:00:58 Speaker 1: Wish that didn't exist. I do get out of here, dude, you would not last. 01:01:08 Speaker 3: Said that. No, take my phone, let me let me turn butter, let me turn Broder Cheetah over my daughter days and you're out crops bam. Once you think that I can't do. 01:01:28 Speaker 1: That at Rocking Amage Farm, I'm not saying you couldn't get a style bro get elected president, elected. 01:01:38 Speaker 3: President of that, I'd be like, I'm getting pissed. 01:01:44 Speaker 1: Let me get a word at the Homage Farm Fridays Fridays. 01:01:49 Speaker 3: Cheatah Fridays, at the Amish Farm casual Fridays. 01:01:56 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna ware, are you doing you? I have a question we got I gotta explain myself. I'm not saying you couldn't handle it. You could easily go do it. Her face right now, turn into that. I'm saying. I'm not saying you couldn't go do it for a week. I'm saving a week. I'm saying if they said, okay, Raylen, you and Daisy and Josh all got to put this stuff on, and you once you go, you can't come back. You're trading in your life for an Amish life. I don't think you stay there that long. I think you would. It would start stinking and you'd be like, I'm out. But I think you would try to put like a gold cross on your blue pants and they'd be like, you're out. You can't be flair. You're too flairy. You're too flaired. Maybe the community needs a little fair. 01:02:53 Speaker 3: Maybe the Amish community. 01:02:54 Speaker 1: When you did say they were dancing in the back of your maybe there's maybe there's a maybe there's a branch you could. 01:02:59 Speaker 3: Maybe glamping for me. I don't know exactly, because there. 01:03:02 Speaker 1: Was some sort of Glamish Glamish Glomish Glomish community community. All right, we got, we got, We're gonna get. Sorry now I feel bad, quick one, quick one. You Uh, you've had a Nashville journey of major label deals. We've talked anything music. That's why, that's why we're here. 01:03:25 Speaker 3: But we're gonna do this. I'm sorry. 01:03:26 Speaker 2: We're your your independent artist time, your first being machine thing, all the highs and the lows of an artist. 01:03:34 Speaker 1: Uh, Like, what is how has that grown you? What has that taught you in your career in your artistry? To go from there? To where you're at now. 01:03:44 Speaker 3: Yeah, So when I started I I was on Big Machine for about four years and then left that deal, went to Warner for a couple of years. That's when I put out Wild Horse, which debuted at number one on the Billboard chartres at that time, there's only four females that debut at number one, which is Taylor Maren White on a jud Wow and she and I a twain like and it was and me, which is awesome, and uh it was that was such a crazy moment. And I got to take my dad with me to the a CM Awards because my husband was at basic training for the military, so he didn't get to go. So it was a it was a crazy whirlwind. 01:04:21 Speaker 1: But appreciate your service. 01:04:23 Speaker 3: Appreciate your server. Josh Brown Davis, he's a mighty man of God. But yeah, but after you know, Warner, we I just didn't have a song that really hit at radio, and but we released Love Triangle, which Love Triangle. Love Triangle was the song for me that like helped me break into rooms writing rooms that I never dreamed of. Like that song was definitely the the tipping point for me and my as it like where they were like Okay, yeah, I raised fun and she's cool, but she can actually write real so that part was cool. And uh and I still to this day love Triangle is to see the way that that song is connected with fans over the years and it always has a resurgence on even though like TikTok, is a lot for me to understand and manage. Sometimes it is really cool that like this younger generation or any like any young people can like they can rEFInd songs like me and Jason were talking about it, like Jason's song The Truth is Popping off and all these other older songs because they people want to dive into music like that again. And Love Triangle always has like a pop every six months, it'll just start taking off again. But you know, I never had that like number one radio song. And so I left Warner and I decided to be independent for a little bit. And I was on a FGL when they were together Florida to Line. They had like a little independent record company, and so I was there for a little bit, released a few songs. I mean, I had my first independent record did twenty million streams in the first like two weeks, which is insane, which was really cool to like as an independent artist. It was like awesome to just see that, like all the hard work that I had to put in, you know, and I just had my daughter. It was twenty twenty. I just had her. I was like kind of wondering, like, you know, COVID was a weird year because I was just like, man, I'm like staring at this kid, and I was like in that newborn bubble, you know. I don't know if you know, the newborn bubble, but I was like, I literally just I want to I don't want my music career. I just want to sit home and just yeah, I'm good. 01:06:30 Speaker 2: Truly. 01:06:30 Speaker 3: She's in the same like I still don't know what I would do with that. I look at her and I'm like, you're my world, but you know, you gotta get out of the house. But after that, I, you know, I was independent for a while and just started releasing stuff, and then I decided I had put this record together. I don't know if you know, I mean, you're gonna know this band. Remember the band under Oath. You know under Oath, They're so awesome, right, So Aaron Gillepsby from under Oath. 01:06:58 Speaker 1: The drummer who's a bad as he was a singer too, right. 01:07:01 Speaker 3: He's a singer, Yeah, he sings all the parts. So there's a screamer and then there's a singer. He's a singer, yeah, and the drummer and I'm And it's funny because I went to an under Oath and Say Ohsin concert when I was you know, like thirteen from Youth Gropirl, Baytime Baby. I went to under Oath and I was like so scared when they started moshing, like they're all wearing like hot topic gothic stuff and I'm wearing my son dress and boots, and I was like, what the hell is this? 01:07:22 Speaker 1: You know? 01:07:22 Speaker 3: But I had so much fun but we uh So Aaron like sent me a message on Instagram and he's like, I know I'm a rock guy, but I love to write country music. I'm from Florida, Like you know, I'm a country I'm a country boy at heart. I'd love to write a song with you. And it's super funny because you go through that phase in town when you don't have a deal and you don't and you're independent and some songwriters just don't give you the time of day. And that's when I saw who my real friends were like, Okay, so you say you're my buddy, you say you love me, but when I want to write with you, just because I don't and listen. And also I actually don't get upset because I understand the game, Like I'm gonna be honest, Like it hurt me a little bit that some people that loved me quote unquote when I had a deal, you know, weren't there. But also like I get, you know, having a family. They're just trying to you know, right where they feel like they're gonna be get radio success. You only make money. You don't make it on streaming, you know. And it's like, but it's it is a hard game. So I have sympathy, but also it is it is a complicated way. But also I feel like sometimes it's like but what about the artists and what about like believing in something? 01:08:35 Speaker 2: You know? 01:08:35 Speaker 3: And I felt like I kind of lost, like I kind of got that jaded Nashville bs of like I feel like nobody believes in what I'm doing. I had, I had my little group of believers, but I just felt a little lost. So me and Aaron wrote this song and he sends me this demo back and I was just like, this is cool, and and it was just like this rock country everything that I love. And honestly, a lot of the songs that I did on the Voice they were rock country like they weren't, you know, bebopping, you know, they were they were that rock country element. And so we just kept writing and we just created something really great. And then I was like, well, let's just do a record and just and we kind of believed in it together. And then through that whole process, a woman named Leslie de Pierro you might know Leslie Thomasina. She's been my supporter since, you know, the very beginning. She was with me at Tree Vibes and stuff, and you know, we started work. We've kind of always were working together. And and I got introduced to Kevin Jonas, the Jonas brother's dad, and. 01:09:47 Speaker 1: Vin Jones. 01:09:48 Speaker 3: He's Kevin Jonas Senior, and then there's Junior, and then there's you know, the boys and stuff. But I just started finding my group of believers, and so we put this record together and then you know, so I Big Machine my first, my first label. They were my family. When I moved here, I didn't have a potipus and a winter thrown out. I didn't have any friends, and so I lived at the label. So I would like go write a song. I'd be like, I'm gonna go show House and Jones my song, and I'd be like, you know, I was annoying how much I was over there because I didn't know anybody, and so I am you know, and I was eighteen, and so it was just that's that was my that was my crew, and and through the years, and this is what I always any advice I always give to like new artists, I'm like, don't burn a bridge. Just be kind cool, be cool. You never know what's gonna come back around. And I saw so one of my older song's Boyfriend, which was the first song I ever released, a big machine started popping off wo on TikTok song I want your boy brand, I'm not gonna Yeah, So that started going off on TikTok that sounds jazz, thank you, and it like like thirty thousand videos were made in like the matter of a week. And I was like, and so then me and sko I started you know, reminiscent. I was like, man, like, isn't this crazy, Like look at her song or whatever. And then He's like, so, what are you working on. I was like, well, I'm working on this record and and he's like, well, I'd love to listen to it. And I was like okay, And so I sent him the project and we went in and we got a deal done in a week and it is on my terms and working together and it's a true partnership of what I wanted and a deal and you know we're going to take take it to radio and everything. But it was just really cool to like, it felt like coming home because I'm back with my old radio team that I built all these radio relationships with at eighteen years old. You know, the girl that was my she was my my regional Ashley Sododi. She's now like this, you know, the VP under you know or the you know right under George Bright or so to watch her grow in the last ten years, but it's just like it has been so cool to see I still believe. I felt like this last year I believe in the magic of Nashville again. And because it's easy to get but I feel like, if you truly love what you do and you love songwriting and you love what Nashville is, you're one great song away from being happy again and then well that's how I am and so and I'm grateful for like all the people that believed in me in that time of being independent, because it took those moments like for me to get through it. There'd be Sunday I want to give up, and then I'd write with then somebody'd say yes to me, and I would be like, okay, all right. It's like a drug, you know. I'm definitely addicted to Nashville, not Nashville, but addicted to music in the culture of it because I still love a great song and I still love the fans, like the fans are the reason why I get to do this. I mean I when I was independent, I you know, I left William Morris and I went to to a smaller agency called Kincaid and they booked me all these shows. I made more money that year than I ever made my whole life. And me and my dad, my country old help me buy a bush and we got a bus. Was still on the bus. And it's just like it was cool to be able to learn all these parts of the business and do it so now that when I'm I feel like I'm back in with it with having a late being with big machine, and like we're now like all right, we're in this again. We're going to radio, We're all right, we're dropping on the horse again, We're taking the chance. Yeah, it's it's I feel way more equipped because I know so much more and I've and I've been through it and I'm still like I'm like I'm thirty one, Like I'm not, but I feel like I've been in this business. I mean, I've been here since I was seventeen, and I think that that's hard sometimes because everybody's seen me, just see me here. But also it's like I ain't leaving. I love it. I'm here to stay. I can't imagine doing anything else, you know. I just I know that this is what God's called me to do. And and don't give up because it's it's it really is a hard business. But as long as you have fans and ten people want to listen to you, that's all that matters. 01:13:58 Speaker 1: I think you bring up a good point about the business being organic, right, It's constantly evolving and moving and changing, and someone that was here is now over here, and someone that's here is and over here, and you don't burn that r it's just all it's constantly changing. And if you're the guy that goes, oh man and then all of a sudden he's the head of year label. Yeah see you man. Yeah, Like there is no point to not just to just not treating people with. 01:14:27 Speaker 3: With kindness and respect where people are going to go sure, and. 01:14:30 Speaker 2: We all know those those like there's tons of examples of people that have and people that that didn't like people stuff and people that didn't and and usually the ones that cause a scene and the ones that that feel, you know, like they deserve success and it's all about them. 01:14:45 Speaker 1: They're out. 01:14:47 Speaker 3: We don't deserve anything. Bro like the only thing and even some of those shows that I would do, like every time there were some shows I'd go out there like Spoken, there was thirteen hundred people there. I was like, oh my god, thirteen or we're coming. And then two weeks later I played a theater and there was twenty people there, and you know, but I never and this is like for me, I was like, you know what, I'm gonna get a paycheck at the end of the night. I'm and these twenty people came to see me. I'm gonna give them the best show they've ever seen. I need every single one of them. They all bought a T shirt, they all got a picture, We made tiktoks. We had a good time because it's like they'll those twenty will tell twenty more. And I just and like, when you do the grind like that, it just makes you appreciate every single thing. And I hope every artist feels that, because it really is. It is a grind. But if you do it because you love it, not because you feel like you deserve it, you will always like you will always be on the up and up. 01:15:42 Speaker 1: Well you always have fans too, Yeah, because you you you locked that foundation and early, and you're an investor in those people, and that's what that's what people want. 01:15:49 Speaker 2: Yeah, Jingle Jangles out, Jingle Jangle rat, the EP jangle, What's What's Dave days? 01:16:00 Speaker 1: His favorite? 01:16:01 Speaker 3: Probably she likes jingle jingle rock and she also likes uh. I did a cover of Alan Jackson I Only Want You for Christmas Baby. She really likes that one. But my favorite part of my favorite lyric and jingle jingle rock is I can hear that big boys downpin a little holiday hockey talking. 01:16:21 Speaker 1: Do you sing songs to day? Do you all make up songs? 01:16:23 Speaker 3: Hey me and Daisy? Oh yeah, Daisy's like hilarious. 01:16:26 Speaker 1: I felt like I should have the greatest hits of the songs that beings. Yeah, I'd say one of my favorites is, uh, you gotta stay, you back from the fire, gotta stay. 01:16:38 Speaker 3: Oh that's actually I need to start doing that with Daisy. 01:16:40 Speaker 1: From the fire, got stay wherever the hook back from the fire or it will burn you up. 01:16:51 Speaker 3: The new thing that Daisy I didn't know that she realized. We were listening to That's Sabrina Carpenter's song man Child, and I'm listening to the song and then I hear stupid or is it? She goes slow and she like starts singing, and I was like, oh my god, Okay she is now she's doing it. She knows every song. Whatever I play in the car, she's good. And then like we go into CC wine and she's like, good, nass of God's That's like that's my playlist, you know, if you want to know my playlist. 01:17:20 Speaker 2: Griffin loves Pink Pony Club, Thank Pony Club, Thanks for kids, cleans it up.

So excited that, right, Oh my god. We did the radio tour, all right, we did that's so I'm excited about that. You know, obviously going to be on the road putting out a record next year. We teased a lot of music or we played. I put out a song called Heaven Is a Hockey Talk long live country music, and then a song called Fall Together that I love, and then obviously the Christmas project. Christmas is my favorite holiday, So super excited to do that. But yeah, I want to point out things before Thanksgiving yet, but I'm excited to put out the full record next year. We got a lot of cool songs. I wrote a song with John Rich and Bob Dapiro that I love called down and Dirty. You know, that's gonna be super fun. And it's just such a fun project. It feels super organic to me, and I love all the collaborators on it, and it's just it's been really cool to like just see this whole just record come to life, and even a lot of this record I played on tour this summer with Jason, and the fans really reacted well to it, and I feel like, you know, you're the first of My buddy Aaron calls you the hot dog Man. You're the first of three, you know. So that's a chance for you to actually try out new music and see how it responds. And of course I had my songs that they knew, but I was really well able to play a lot of this new stuff and they really did respond well to it. So I'm excited for that to come out and let's play write more music. 01:18:59 Speaker 2: It seems like you're revived, You're refreshed, dude. Yeah, you just you seem like you're in a great place. I'm excited to see everything working for you. 01:19:08 Speaker 3: I'm excited. You know, I ain't giving up just yet.

I totally think you're that person, got this whole thing. But there's it's also authentic, so it's easy to do. 01:19:38 Speaker 3: I mean, when I was on the voice, I had like, you know, those cupcake dresses, big flower on my you know, it was so funny. I'll never forget this. So, like my grandmother called me Raylan. And so when we were when I was feeling out my paperwork for the voice, my name was at the time, I wasn't married, so I was Rachel Lynn Woodward, you know, and they had name and they had stage name. I remember looking at the stage name, it's like Rachel Woodwards. 01:20:03 Speaker 1: Just not a that doesn't sound you made it up, decided. 01:20:06 Speaker 3: So I literally in that moment, was like, raylan' is it? And I just wrote down Land. It wasn't. It was a two second thing. I was like, Raylan looks like read what looks like Dolly? I was like bam bam. And it was just like so crazy. And then and just to know that it was just such a split, I was like, I don't want to be a Rachel Woodward. I was like, sorry, dad, love your maiden name, but I didn't, you know. But but now it's like, you know, I love to say that my name is a Bible name, Rachel. You know, it's like mine. 01:20:35 Speaker 1: It's cool, for sure, cool name, but it's. 01:20:38 Speaker 3: Spelled e a L, not e L or a e L R A C H E A L. You'll never meet anybody else with it E L.

I feel like we hardly touched it. It was so fun. 01:21:16 Speaker 2: We like to end every show with a segment called gavorite tune, gravorite song, favorite song. Yeah, we used to do favorite song and then we did Greatest, and then nobody liked that because it was too much more favorite. 01:21:27 Speaker 1: We did gravorite too much pressure to try to come up with the greatest of all time, so they all kept saying the same one. You referenced the tune earlier. Yeah, is that what that might be? 01:21:39 Speaker 3: Maybe that's what we should do. Well listen, like Gretchen Wilson, Like Gretchen and Miranda were the it girls Like when. 01:21:47 Speaker 1: I was talking about. 01:21:50 Speaker 3: Country who they were, and I felt like they were just like so many women could relate to them, you know, like and so and I and I.
