00:00It's Jeff Kirkshin, Justin, and Hardy. What's going on, brother?

00:03Living the dream.

00:04Listen, you are one of my favorite songwriters. I mean, an artist, love you.

00:09Songwriter, the thing you've done since the very beginning of your career,

00:12that is just so incredible, the amount of things you've cranked out,

00:14and now you're getting to see the fruits of your labor on the stage, too.

00:18That's pretty sweet, dude.

00:19That's cool, man.

00:19I'm so proud to see how far you've come, but that songwriting is at your core in your heart.

00:24That's something we appreciate a lot.

00:25Yeah, dude, absolutely, man.

00:26I've always, I just said this, but if we don't have the song, we don't have any of this.

00:33Very true.

00:34It's literally, it starts with the song, and that's how important it is.

00:37So I'm really thankful for that and that I have my songwriting foundation before anything else.

00:45So I'm someone who fronts the back albums, Mockingbird and the Crow.

00:48I'm front and back it.

00:49In the middle, there's that shift.

00:51When you went into doing the album, where you're like, I want that shift in the middle,

00:55or it was like a natural progression.

00:57That was the last song we wrote for the record.

00:58It was on the bus, right?

00:59Yeah, it was the last song.

01:01Really?

01:01So we had all the other, and I knew it was going to be a double album,

01:04but it's a crazy story.

01:09But I had this title called The Mockingbird and the Crow on my phone as an idea,

01:13and it didn't even hit me until that day, and I was like, I have the perfect song to put a bow on this record,

01:22and I was like, I didn't even realize it.

01:23So we wrote that song and then put it right in the middle, and it was an accident, but it worked out.

01:28It's a great accident.

01:29Yeah.

01:29I just want to say real quick to you, thank you for speaking out about mental health.

01:35I think it's so important to hear that our heroes, our stars, these people we hold up on a pedestal on a stage

01:41also have struggles like you, me, and everybody else.

01:43So just thank you for that.

01:45Yeah, absolutely, man.

01:45Because it means a lot, and people see through the glitz and the glitter and all that stuff

01:50to get to know Hardy a little bit more.

01:52You're performing CMAs with Morgan Wallen and Post Malone.

01:56Yeah.

01:57This is pretty cool, right?

01:59Yeah.

01:59Do you have a Post Malone song that you love?

02:02Is there one that you love the most?

02:04I love them all, but yeah.

02:06It's tough, dude.

02:07There's so many good tracks.

02:09It was between Sunflower and Congratulations, and if it was like a deep cut, it would be

02:13Take What You Want, It's Really Good.

02:15Well, you always have music going through your head, so we'll excuse you this time.

02:19Constantly, yeah, yeah, yeah.

02:19Don't worry.
