“Fan Fair is just the most amazing thing. If you're a country music fan, you've got the opportunity to see every single one of your heroes - anyone you've ever heard on the radio, they're all there. To get all the country music artists in one place at one time [means] you also can get autographs and pictures if you want. It's awesome, because all the artists and all the fans are right there together, which never happens otherwise during the year.”
“We spend so much time and effort trying to write the best songs that we can write and pick the best songs that we can. Everything we are as humans at that time is put on tape.”
“Because we're out there just beating the street and on tour and working so hard, you forget that award shows are even coming up because it's just about giving back to the fans. To see all your hard work pay off and have the academy nominate you and your peers think enough of you to have your name put in a category is just awesome.”
“We've contributed a little to bringing people from the hip-hop world, the R&B world and the straight-up rock world into country music. It's win-win for everybody. I think country music people are too hard on saying what's country and what's not country.”
“When we first got together, we didn't talk about who was going to sing what. We did 'Church on Cumberland Road' and it was undeniable when we hit that first chorus. We felt like we had to do it. We felt like it was ordained.”
“We have been so blessed since we moved to town. The response from Nashville to this show has been so tremendous that we decided we wanted to give something back to the community.”
