Hey girls. Thank you for agreeing to this interview with me about your 2018.
You girls started the year off by releasing your debut album Just Like in the Movies back in April, could you please tell me a little back your experience of that and what was the reaction like from your fans?
We have had such a great time touring all over the United States performing and visiting radio stations as soon as we released our second album. We are so thankful for all of the positive support that we have received with each single release! There isn’t anything we love more than being able to share music with our fans and getting to experience new places!

I have to ask of all the songs on the album which is your personal favourite and which song is your favourite to perform as group?
It’s so hard to choose a favorite! Especially since Just Like In The Movies is a concept album, each song has its own story and purpose—they’re kind of like their own puzzle pieces to the story we wrote in this album! Although, our song “Missing Mississippi” is really special to us since Natalia wrote it after moving to Nashville for the first time.

In June, you performed at CMA Fest and I was wondering how amazing for that for you girls?
We always enjoy playing at CMA Fest! It gives a chance to see a lot of our friends in the music industry and a lot of our fans all at the same time! We really enjoyed getting to play at a bunch of shows in Nashville and hanging out with all of our old and new fans.

You have been invited to perform in many wonderful places and being asked to attend some wonderful events but I have to ask which venue has been your favourite? Because you girls get to perform at some stunning venues for sure.
We’ve played anywhere from homemade stages at festivals in the middle of the Mississippi Delta to the Ryman Auditorium! Getting to play music is so great in many ways—one of which is getting to travel and see the different sites, towns/cities, food, and people. Of course, the Ryman Auditorium was one of our most magical and memorable experiences, but some of our other favorites include the restaurants/pubs that we played in the U.K., and even the big festivals put on by large radio stations around the U.S.!

This Summer your “Anything Is Possible” single went to #25 on the U.S. charts. Then in September, you released your follow-up single “I Think Too Much,” (such an fun song!) how is it doing on the charts?
THANK YOU!! We worked really hard visiting lots of radio stations all over the U.S. pushing “Anything Is Possible” and our story. We are SO thankful and proud for it to chart #25! With the release of “I Think Too Much,” lots of our friends in radio and the exposure we gained from hitting the road instantly helped push the new single. We did a lot more performances rather than radio visits with its release and are very proud to say that it continues to move up the chart!!
I absolutely love I Think Too Much, its such an inspiring song!

You have recently finished a High School Tour in the US, can you tell us a little about it? What was it like?
Of course! We joined an organization that is very close to us called High School Nation out on their last two weeks of their fall tour throughout Florida and Texas. We visited a different high school Monday-Friday, performing for the students as well as taking pictures and selling merchandise! The organization also has a lot of great sponsors that pick up and travel on the tour with them such as Sparkling Ice, Takis chips, Guitar Center, PETA, Hollister, etc. Each high school along the Tour receives a recording studio to help keep music in the schools! It is a fabulous organization that is super close to our hearts and we hope to go back out on tour again!

And before, I let you know I have to ask what are your plans for the rest of December? And what are you doing for Christmas?
As 2018 comes to an end, we plan on visiting a few more radio stations and Children’s Hospitals to help celebrate the holidays with Christmas songs and cheer! We also are planning to spend lots of time with our family for the holidays since 2018 has been quite a busy year for us. For New Year’s, we are going to perform at a brand new venue here in our hometown for all of our close friends and early supporters and we are SO EXCITED about it! Thanks for interviewing us, Kellie! Hope to meet you in person one day very soon.
Thank you so much for your time girls. I very much appreciate it. Here's to 2019!!
