00:00We are backstage once again. Hope you're having a great night so far at the 99.5 QYK Guitar Pole.
00:04These ladies are crushing it. Maddie and Tay.
00:07Hi.
00:08Hi, ladies. How are you?
00:09I'm excited to play this game.
00:11Yes.
00:11It's going to be really hard to not laugh.
00:14No cheating.
00:15So you guys have been watching these videos today. The game is we have given them random words.
00:19Lana and I do not know what the words are, but they have to take those secret words and work them into the interview somewhere.
00:26Okay?
00:27So ladies, show your words. They each have their own word.
00:30Ladies, go ahead and show your word. Can we see that okay?
00:32I'm just going to say bizarre words.
00:34I'm one, that's Tay. I'm this, that's Tay.
00:36To throw you off the whole time, I'm going to say weird words.
00:38All right. We're ready to go. Drop it.
00:41Fantabulous.
00:42So you're going to do weird ones, you said?
00:44To throw you off so you don't know which ones.
00:45So a normal interview then is what you're saying?
00:47I'm going to use big words.
00:49Yes.
00:50Computer.
00:50All right. So ladies, thank you for being here. Let's first of all talk about the shoes. I think those are amazing.
00:55They need a moment.
00:56Thanks.
00:56They need a red carpet moment.
00:57These bad boys are old.
00:58These are like four years old. All my boots.
01:00They can't see them. I'm sorry. I referenced red shoes, but they can't see them. I'm sorry.
01:03It's okay.
01:04Cowabunga.
01:05Cowabunga.
01:06They saw them on stage.
01:07They saw them on stage. There you go.
01:09So how have you guys been?
01:11We've been good.
01:12Busy.
01:12We've been working on a record.
01:13We've just been having such a blast putting that together.
01:17And this is our third record.
01:18So we finally feel like we're grasping the whole process.
01:21We actually kind of know what we're doing.
01:22Not really, but a little more than the last two times.
01:25We like to think we do.
01:25Yeah.
01:25So January 28th.
01:27We got the date.
01:27You dress like you know what you're doing.
01:29You act like you know what you're doing.
01:30So that's all important.
01:31Oh my gosh.
01:32Fake it till you make it.
01:33Right?
01:33Every time I see you, there's a new milestone going on in your lives.
01:36And I don't think I've seen you since you've both been married.
01:38No.
01:39So congratulations.
01:41And someone's engaged as well.
01:44Congratulations.
01:46Oh my gosh.
01:48It's beautiful.
01:49Been referencing that all night.
01:50But anyway.
01:51Yeah.
01:51I was like, don't talk about it anymore.
01:52We're going to talk about it again.
01:53You got to show off that ring.
01:54You got to show it off.
01:55Yeah.
01:56How's that been?
01:57Married life.
01:58Sorry, I'm so focused on the word.
01:59Yeah, I know.
01:59I'm just trying to work it in.
02:00I haven't said it yet.
02:02We have no idea what the word is.
02:04It's been amazing.
02:05Like married.
02:05I don't know why everyone's like, marriage is my husband.
02:08You know, people that like, it really is.
02:11Like, I mean, obviously there are days, you know, but all the good days are, there's more
02:15good days than bad.
02:16And it's just really fun having that like rock and that steady person in your life.
02:20Yeah.
02:21I have like a work wife and then a real husband.
02:23So I get best of both worlds.
02:25Pretty solid over here.
02:26Yeah.
02:26So now are we finding that it's easier to write music because of this newfound different
02:32type of love that you have in your life now?
02:35I think so.
02:36Because with that, we've gained a lot of confidence and just being ourselves and owning the parts
02:41of us that maybe we tried to hide or shut off before.
02:43So we've been really loving putting that in our music.
02:47But you can still do a good breakup song every once in a while.
02:49Oh, baby.
02:50We got you still.
02:51Absolutely.
02:52Not every song is like our story.
02:54We try not to like out people's business.
02:57I mean, my sister has, she was the story behind Friends Don't.
03:00And I was like, well, just outed your sister.
03:01Here we go.
03:02But yeah, but we, I mean, we've both experienced heartache and heartbreak in so many different
03:08ways in life.
03:08And I think it's just a part of humaning, as I say.
03:11And so we can kind of all connect over those things.
03:13But you silly goose that happens all the time.
03:15Yes.
03:15Yeah.
03:16Absolutely.
03:16Yeah.
03:19Silly goose just dropped in there.
03:20I love that.
03:23I love that so much.
03:24You silly turkey leg.
03:26That's a good one.
03:27So what was, you know, we hear a lot of people have been writing over quarantine and, you
03:32know, during the pandemic.
03:33So what is the coolest thing that you got to do?
03:35Over the pandemic?
03:36Yeah.
03:36Or like in 2020?
03:37Yeah.
03:38Um, well, having a number one song after five years.
03:44It took five years to get to another, you know, hit song.
03:48And that may not seem like a lot of time, but for us, it feels like forever.
03:53Um, so that was a jillion years.
03:55Yeah.
03:55It felt really, really long.
03:56But, um, just the redemption that we experienced, I cried for like a week straight, just like
04:01thanking God for the, like his plan is always so perfect.
04:04And like, you're, you're going on it and you're like, what the heck are you doing?
04:08Like, if you can say that to God, I think you can probably.
04:11You said heck.
04:11I said a lot worse.
04:12Yeah.
04:13I think.
04:13Yeah.
04:13Right.
04:14But yeah.
04:15Um, but then it's like, everything just works out so beautifully and all that we learned
04:19so much, but yeah, definitely celebrating Die from a Broken Heart being a hit.
04:23Thanks to y'all.
04:24Congratulations.
04:25It's so great.
04:26I love hearing you guys' story.
04:27How was your fishing game?
04:29The fishing game.
04:30We actually just, um, did a fishing tournament.
04:33With Academy, actually.
04:34We got to go fishing with our dads.
04:35I've never gone on a fishing tournament with my dad.
04:37Have you?
04:39No.
04:39We fished together with our dads, but never like a full tournament.
04:42And we caught the biggest bass.
04:45Yeah.
04:45Got second place.
04:47That sucker was almost eight pounds.
04:48Nice.
04:49I know.
04:50I caught nada.
04:51Nada damn thing.
04:53Nada.
04:54I was just, yeah.
04:55I didn't have good luck that day, but Tay did, so.
04:57It was fun.

05:08we just love your songs.
05:10And I mean, let's just start with the first one, you know?
05:12I mean, it's always just a fun song.
05:15Oh my gosh.
05:16A girl in a country song was that, the song that puts you guys on the map, and still just
05:20such a fun song.
05:21You going to play that one tonight, too?
05:22Definitely.
05:23Good.

05:24For sure.
05:24Very cool.
05:25Well, thanks for being here.
05:27Did you guys get your words in?
05:27Yeah.
05:27Do you know what, do you want to guess?
05:29Isn't that part of the game?
05:30I mean, I gave it.
05:31I heard Goose.
05:32I knew, was that one?
05:34Goose.
05:34Silly Goose.
05:35What was yours?
05:36Mine was Turkey Leg.
05:37And I said, you silly Turkey Leg.
05:39Oh, that was under your breath.
05:41That's good.
05:41All right.
05:42Maddie, that was under your breath.
05:43We did not hear that.
05:44Okay, but Goose is way easier than Turkey Leg.
05:47Like, how am I supposed to, oh yeah, I was in the studio eating a Turkey Leg recording
05:51diet.
05:51Like, what?
05:52I don't know.
05:52And got it right there.
