00:00These next two guests on our show.
00:02Hey, it's Dan and Shay on the phone.
00:04Good morning, guys.
00:06Let's go.
00:07How are you doing?
00:08Hey, so it's Lana and Kevin today.
00:11We are missing a very important person on this show.
00:15Obviously, J.R. not here today.
00:19Did J.R. just have a baby?
00:20J.R. had a baby.
00:22Yes.
00:22Let's go.
00:23Did you break the news?
00:25You guys just broke the news.
00:27I saw it on Instagram, so hopefully.
00:30That was not the first announcement.
00:32But, man, congratulations to him.
00:33We've been checking in with him all week, and he's learning how to change diapers and swaddle.
00:40And he's doing all that stuff.
00:42But, yeah, J.R. had a baby girl.
00:44Her name is Parker Lindy, and he's a dad.
00:47Can you guys believe it?
00:48No, I cannot believe that, honestly.
00:51Jesus.
00:52I was texting with him the other night.
00:54I'm like, I can't believe that you have a baby and you're a dad.
00:56He goes, I know it's crazy.
00:58He goes, I still haven't wrapped my head around it.
01:00But we're super happy for him.
01:02But let's talk about you guys.
01:04I mean, first of all, congratulations.
01:05Ten number ones.
01:07Yes.
01:07How about that?
01:08Thank you guys so much.
01:09Y'all have been there for all of them since the very beginning, and we appreciate that.
01:12Ten number ones is crazy.
01:14It's crazy to think that we've been doing this for ten years.
01:16You know, we met, and we just had a dream of writing songs and maybe having one number one on country radio.
01:22Heck, just getting a song on country radio would be a dream.
01:25And because of folks like you, we've been able to have ten, and we're launching a song called Bigger Houses, which we're so proud of.
01:32It's representative of exactly where we are in our life and in our career, just kind of in the spirit of gratitude.
01:37And that's exactly what it is.
01:39We're grateful for all of it.
01:40We're grateful that we get to get on the air and talk to you guys.
01:42We're grateful that we get to go on the road, wink, wink, and maybe come see you all very, very soon.
01:47Stay tuned.
01:47Yeah, I was going to say, I don't see a Florida date on the schedule right now.
01:52Did you hear the wink, wink, though?
01:53Oh, I heard the wink, wink.
01:54I mean, Dan, your parents live here.
01:56Come on.
01:56I know.
01:57Yeah, we weren't going to skip that one.
01:59All right, good.
02:00Good to hear.
02:01It's real hot outside, so we can come down there and put ourselves through a brutal time, you know?
02:05We don't come there when it's, like, cold and rainy in Nashville to get away.
02:08It's like, yeah, let's wait till August when it's, like, 100 degrees.
02:11Yeah, that's right.
02:12That's right.
02:13Why everybody comes here in July and August, I was like, I never, ever get it.
02:17But, well, so your next single is going to be Bigger Houses, which is the title track to the album.
02:22And it's also the last song on the album.
02:25Let's talk about that.
02:26What's up with the title, Bigger Houses?
02:28Bigger Houses is really what this song represents, you know, is exactly where we're at in our lives right now, you know?
02:34And I love, you know, seeing J.R., you know, go through those changes and become a dad.
02:39Yeah.
02:39And, you know, that's stuff that, you know, I've been through in the last few years.
02:44And it's just wild, man.
02:45It changes your perspective on things.
02:47And Dan and I, you know, working on our relationship over the last couple years has absolutely changed everything for our band, you know?
02:54And all that communication and whatnot has just been unbelievable.
02:58And to stand on stage and to be able to kind of, you know, sing that song, you know, it feels like you're preaching that message to people.
03:04And I know that not only our fans need to hear it, but we need to hear that message and remind ourselves, man, we are so grateful to get to do this, you know, to be able to wake up and to have this be our job.
03:14I mean, for all of you guys, I follow y'all on Instagram.
03:16I follow J.R.
03:17And I feel like y'all are my show.
03:20You know, I get to watch you guys do your thing, and I love it.
03:23And I don't know.
03:24We're all really lucky to get to do this.
03:26Yes, agreed.
03:27To be a part of music and to be a part of something that's bigger than all of us is pretty incredible.
03:31And I'm missing J.R.
03:33I feel like, you know, I taught him how to swaddle all of this the last time he holds me.
03:39And next time, I'll really teach him some things, you know, give him some wisdom.
03:43Who would have thought there would ever be a day where I could give wisdom to somebody?
03:46But I got a little bit of truth in my belt nowadays.
03:49J.R. needs all the help he can get.
03:51So he'd be glad to hear from you.
03:53I could tell.
03:54I could tell by the picture.
03:55I was like, man, what's happening there?
03:57I could panic on his face.
04:00He has no idea what he's doing right now.
04:04That's great.
04:04He's got to change the baby's diaper.
04:06He's got to change his own diaper.
04:07I mean, it's just awesome.
04:09I love it.
04:10Well, listen, we're just glad that we had a chance to catch up with you guys and just congratulate you on all the success.
04:15Love the new single.
04:16We're going to play it here on QIK.
04:18Okay, so thank you guys so much for checking in this morning.
04:20And hopefully we'll see you this summer.
04:22Yeah.
04:23Wink, wink.
04:24Hey, we love you guys.
04:25Thank you so much for everything.
04:26And we can't wait to see you soon.
04:27Wink, wink.
04:28All right.
