00:00Hello, oh my gosh, Old Dominion, your friend!

00:02Old Dominion!

00:03Hi, good to see you.

00:04Guys, hello, hello.

00:06I'm barefoot, I'm sorry, I'm barefoot.

00:08Thank you so much.

00:11I mean, for those who don't know, our AK here toured with Old Dominion,

00:16so it's a bit of a reunion of sorts on the carpet, right?

00:18I am, and y'all are taking me to Australia next year.

00:22What are you most excited about for that tour?

00:25Not the plane ride.

00:26I know, I know.

00:27Me either, but I'm happy to be going with y'all, that's for sure.

00:32And one other thing that I'm visiting quite often is your bar, Odie's.

00:37I thank you very much for your patience.

00:38I was there last night, actually, a little too late, I think.

00:41I was there early yesterday.

00:43How does it feel for you guys to be opening these new places?

00:47Midtown, incredible, incredible spot for it.

00:50So cool, it's so cool.

00:51I like to see how people have embraced it, the community has shown up,

00:54there's a line out the door, it's doing better than we thought it would.

00:57They're loving it, they're loving it.

00:58And I mean, you guys have seen country music grow over the years.

01:02I mean, in what ways have you seen the change?

01:05Like, what is your favorite part of the changing in the country music over the past few years?

01:09I mean, my favorite part has always been, and always will be, just new great songs.

01:14You know, the country music has always been open to different sounds,

01:18and the one thing that always remains constant is that there are new great songs to be heard.

01:24So as long as they keep coming, I'm happy.

01:28Tons of great songs on the way.

01:29And I mean, going on tour, I'm going to bring it back to AK here.

01:33I mean, what is it about when you guys find these artists and you're like,

01:37what sticks out to you when you see an artist and you're like, we've got to get her on tour, you know?

01:41I mean, one thing is the songs, like Trevor was saying, and just a good vibe, you know, like good energy.

01:47We're a happy bunch of guys, and we like positivity, and look.

01:53Hey, I'm interviewing you guys here.

01:56Well, you guys are nominated tonight.

01:59You have been before.

02:00Any, like, huge moments that stick out that will always be burned in your brain from the CMAs?

02:06I mean, the first time you win, it's pretty incredible.

02:09It was a big shock to us, and we just kind of learned in that moment how many people were around us supporting us,

02:17our team and our families and our friends and our peers.

02:22And it just kind of pulled back the curtain for us and let us see how much support we actually had

02:26in a business that kind of feels like you're just scrapping out there alone sometimes.

02:30It was really eye-opening for us.

02:32For sure.

02:33Beautiful.

02:33I mean, thank you guys so much.

02:35You are icons living.

02:37We're excited, so excited to be talking to you.

02:39And good luck on tour, all of you.

02:41Good luck tonight, you guys.

02:42Good to see you.

02:44I'll see you guys at Odie's.

02:45Okay, bye.
