“It's important that people come see our show, because we are performers. We wanted people to see that.”

“We bled writing these songs, we bled in the studio, and now we're out bleeding getting them right live.”

“When I get drafty cold air in my ears, I would get an earache and get sick. I had to make sure I hustled and stayed well for my shows that I played.”

“The chemistry that you get from living with your band and creating music and recording with your band translates to the stage.”

“I don't ever want to stop making country, and I don't want to stop making electronic music, either.”

“We're all continuing to grow up and get better as musicians, and the chemistry as a band continues to deepen.”

“The Southern Ground warehouse is rocking and rolling in Atlanta, with a T-shirt shop and a leather shop; everything we're selling at our shows we're making or publishing ourselves.”

“Our music has been an incredible gift to help us make a difference.”

“Our boundaries have dissolved, and we're going to still do things that are somewhat familiar that people like, but we're also going to stretch out and take chances beyond what we've done before.”

“I can't stand having cold air blowing in my ears, so when it's cold at my house, or if I am outside, I am going to have my ears covered up.”

“Other people pull off amazing festivals and events and things like that. I think ours is a little bit different, and that's what makes us distinct.”

“If you break down most rock songs and look at the lyrics on a piece of paper, it's all about melody. It's all about presentation. And a lot of bands are really great, but you can't understand a word of what they say.”

“Good music makes you feel something.”

“I want to get better every year.”

“I try to be really conscious. I don't want to ever look back and regret not raising my kids and not being around.”

“All my siblings being all different ages meant I got exposed to music that was 20-30 years older than me. And that was a big influence.”

“It's an honor to live on a legacy, getting to do what we love to do and try to be the best musicians that we can possibly be.”

“We're really blessed that we've been as well received as we have been.”

“Thanks so much to all the fans. To all our team, to all our wives, especially, that believe in us and that we come home to, and everybody here that's given us a shot.”

“I have an outdoor kitchen at home in Georgia, and I try to never eat inside.”
