Speaker 2 (00:39):
Oh come all you faithful her latest Christmas single across
all those platforms. Good friend of the show, Casey Tendall
joins us here, Casey and my friend.

Speaker 3 (00:46):
How you doing.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
I'm doing great? How are you doing? Good to be back.

Speaker 2 (00:49):
It's good to be back. We haven't done this since
I guess. Yeah, we're talking before the show a little bit, right,
there January February two, with all the great songs that
come out there too. First, how was the Thanksgiving holidays?
The note was tough other state New York back there too.
And if anybody saw the Bills game this past Sunday
night with all the snow that came through, uh, the snowball,
I called it and offered fans like twenty bucks an
hour to shovel snow out there.

Speaker 3 (01:10):
I was Thanksgiving.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
It was so good. You know, I'm originally from North Carolina,
but my husband's from New York, and so it was
our first time doing Thanksgiving in New York and it
was awesome. And like I was saying before it, you know,
being from the South, when it snows, you freak out
and you go get a bunch of bread and milk,
all the eggs are gone, and hell toilet paper, all
of it. And up north they're so used to it.

(01:31):
You can drive around. You ain't got to stress about it.
So we had a good time, we really did. It
was great.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
Tell me about some plans for Christmas, you know, not
too we were thinking about this, but yeah, just three
weeks await an hour or four somewhere right there is
Christmas is going to take over and we're gonna finish
twenty twenty four. Fee is like we just started this
year too. What are the plans for the I guess
the Christmas plans coming up this year?

Speaker 1 (01:52):
Well, since we went to New York for Thanksgiving, we're
gonna go to my home in North Carolina for Christmas.
So it's kind of be really great to get back home.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
Everybody, Hey, talk about this Christmas song that you guys
have put out there right there in November twenty second
for Oh Come All You Faithful, one of those classics
that everybody has heard different artists put their renditions on.
But it feels like every time you've had that just
that good feel for Christmas too, you've loved that time
of year and just putting your own spin on this song.

Speaker 3 (02:17):
How much fun?

Speaker 1 (02:18):
Was that? So much fun? And I haven't done it.
I've only done one Christmas song my whole career, and
so it's been really awesome to get to put this
one out and just the honor Jesus and I just
this is my favorite, my favorite hymn at Christmas time.
So I was really excited we got to put it out.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
You know, it was fascinated by just the writing in
there too, and you really make people feel something. And
I'm going to say it out there too, because I've
listened to a lot of your music ever since we
met four or five years ago and doing this very
radio show right here too. But man, I've loved it
ever since because I can feel the storytelling aspect of
every song you've ever put out. And it's not to
say you can do that with most artists I've had
here on the show, but there's those special ones like yourself,

(02:54):
who I have that personal connection with because I've gone
through something, so therefore I can feel something in your
music about just the authenticity and the storytelling and how
important that is to you as an artist to put
that out there to your fans.

Speaker 1 (03:06):
Well, I'm also a songwriter, so's it's always nice when
you know I can pull something from my own life
because it comes across, you know, more genuine. But I
also love writing songs that maybe I haven't you know,
ideas that I haven't gone through that I know one
of my fans might be listening to that can go
through that, And it's always fun to be able to
put out a song that just everybody can relate to.

(03:26):
And I've definitely been in a season of writing songs
about my life, which has been kind of fun because
I feel like I do write a lot for everybody else.
And so you know, we're working on a record right now,
and that's definitely the season that I that I'm in,
and so I'm really excited for everybody to get to
hear what I've been writing.

Speaker 2 (03:45):
I can't wait to hear that too. She's got to
stand that to me first. I'm like the number one
fan out there too, which is good. I get a jats,
get a jump before people out there having this radio
show here. But hey, it all started this year, even
with Bad for Me. We were talking before the show,
but again, kind of give people an update streaming wise.
It of course, just how good that one is done
for you? And I'm gonna go back evento an older one.
They're at twenty twenty one, but let's start with a

(04:06):
Back for Me and kind of recap that one a
little bit.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
Yeah, Bad for Me it's, you know, another one of
my favorites, and it's just about needing somebody as crazy
as you are and life, whether it be your partner
or your friends. It just you know, you got to
have people that can keep up with you. So that's
what that one is about. And it's it's done really well,
and you know, everybody's connected to it, and it's just
it's been awesome.

Speaker 2 (04:30):
Now, I know, we just passed the CMAS, you know
this this year, just a few weeks ago there for
twenty twenty four. Of course I missed it, you know,
being a proud CMA member myself and just didn't get
a chance to fly through this year and do some
radio coverage. Hope for that changes in twenty twenty five.
Did you get a chance to attend as an artist,
and if not, did you get a chance to watch it?

Speaker 1 (04:46):
I went to all the parties, I did all the things,
so I was I was out and about amongst all
the chaos. But I got to watch it as well,
and it's it was really awesome and a lot of
my friends are there and getting to see them do
big things was pretty cool. So we had a good time.

Speaker 2 (05:05):
Well, I tell you who I like so much out
there when she did her rendition of it, but the
Ashley McBride version of the Chris Christopherson soon the dedication
tribute song there, I thought it was a smash smash
it and that's one of those females on fire right
now in the industry.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
Right you can do no wrong. And she's just one
of the best voices of all time. I got to
tour with her earlier in the year, and she's just
an incredible artist, incredible songwriter, just top much.

Speaker 2 (05:32):
Any think she touches turns to gold out there too.
Hey tell us about even twenty twenty two. For Jesus
and Joan Jet, I want to give the fans a
little bit of kind of sneak peek of this one.
It's not one of the ones we're going to play
today too, but you can go catch it across all
the DSPs out there for wherever you guys stream. But
I love the feel and storytelling aspect of this one.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
Yeah, Jesus and Jones. Jett, I actually wrote it in
twenty seventeen and it took him till I think we
could put it out twenty twenty one or twenty twenty two,
and it is still my big song today most streams,
I mean, everybody just loves it. You know, when you
get added to a playlist, you fall off if you know,
algorithmically like if people aren't listening to it and it's

(06:12):
still on the playlist that it was added to, which
means people are still loving it. And you know, it's
just it's it's the little song that could for me,
and so I've just I've been so excited to see
everybody grab a hold to it and rock out to it.
For sure.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
It's a rockout song, no doubt too. And of course
the latest thing out there pulling weeds across all those
digital streaming platforms. Will play that one here just a
little bit too again, Brandon Morel here the backstage passing

Speaker 4 (09:34):
Oh who is a say not as I've done.

Speaker 6 (09:39):
Hey, y'all, this is Nashville recording artist Aaron Gibney and
you're listening to the Backstage Pass exclusively on kk TC
True Country ninety nine point nine. That Caiden Bordon Show
Today's Best Country Mix is a two hour show playing
independent and mainstream country music you know and love. Be
sure to check it out at the dot com for

(10:01):
more information on the show.

Speaker 2 (10:05):
All Right, So I love this one, and what a
storytelling here, Not as I've done, And this has been
one for me that had just a great feel for
a ballet out there too at the same time. But
I love this one and just the way that you
approach this particular title and really, like I said, that
authenticity you can feel it in this one.

Speaker 1 (10:22):
Yeah, I mean, not as I've done. Just it's about
my daughter and I just you know, we've sat down
to start writing for this record. I knew I had
to have one for her, and it's just advice. It's like,
you know, you know, we all have that, we all
have stuff we've done that we hope that our kids
never do. And so that's just that's what it's about.
And I hope that all the moms and daddies.

Speaker 2 (10:43):
Out there can connect to it, no doubt, that's the
beauty of that songwriting tale. I was talking about that
to Joel Smallbone with for King and Country. We actually
put a show out today. They're up on the website
at the same time, and he was talking about all
the Christmas shows they have coming up at the operating
Just a whirlwind they've been on out there in the
Christian country scene too, and he talked about one of
the best points he made. Casey I think in the

(11:04):
interview with me, was talking about just that that storytelling
aspect of songwriting in itself when you can just share
a message and he loves the process of it, and
I said, what does that feel like? What emotions do
you get out of that? And his word was magic.
Kind of expound on that a little bit with just
your process of being a songwriter too at the same
time and an artist of what you love most about
that songwriting process totally.

Speaker 1 (11:24):
I mean, you know, whether I'm writing for me or
writing for somebody else, the one, yeah, magic is totally
the word, because I mean, you think about it, You're
you're coming up with words, words just feel like they
come out of nowhere. There's no rhyme or reason to it.
There's no process, it just it just happens. So I
usually always say that God's a co writer because especially
when it's like an insane line, you're like, where did

(11:46):
that come from? But yeah, magic, it's it's just it's
that's the word. I agree completely. That's kind. I mean,
you just you sit down and you let the song
write itself.

Speaker 2 (11:58):
You know, you've done some, and we're seeing more of
those two with the collaborations in the industry now these days,
which I love out there for a lot of songs,
anything in the works, I guess moving forward, I know
of cause a lot of it you're not able to
announce it, but you've done some in your career. Give
me your favorite kind of the breakdown of collaborations and
how they're becoming more part of.

Speaker 3 (12:14):
The industry now too.

Speaker 1 (12:16):
Yeah. I mean, I've been in Nashville for ten years
and so I've put out tons of songs and I
just signed with a new label. It was really my
first record deal with a label called Monarch, and I'm
just so excited to hit the ground run and We've
got a bunch of music coming out next year, and
I've probably said too much, but it's okay, and it's

(12:38):
gonna be so awesome. I can't wait for everybody to
just hop on the train with me because next year
we're rolling.

Speaker 2 (12:44):
We're rolling, right, So I get to roll with you now,
no doubt we're coming to a show with twenty twenty five.
We're getting our tails up there, no doubt with the
backstage pass here all right, the little sas, the little
attitude in it.

Speaker 3 (12:53):
It was twenty twenty three.

Speaker 6 (12:54):
I know.

Speaker 2 (12:54):
We talked about their touched about this on future broadcasts
Dirt Road to Hell and for people that haven't heard it,
let's dive into this one.

Speaker 1 (13:02):
Man Dirt Road to Hell. It was one of those
moments where I'm like, oh, okay, I really need to
be doing TikTok. That song just exploded for me on
on TikTok and it's just a little cheating song. And
I have never seen so many women burning wedding dresses
to that song. I started that trend. They started that

(13:22):
on their own. I was like, lord y'all, go get
me in trouble. But it has done so well for us,
and you know, I feel like everybody just needs that song,
like just if they're mad about something that they can
just turn up and just be back, you know. And
so that's that's what that song is. And yeah, it's
been it's been crazy for us.

Speaker 2 (13:42):
It has no doubt. It has that sass and the
attitude in it too. And just another one that was
one of your best ballads. And everybody ever they always
ask me, what's your favorite Casey ten Doll song? I said, well,
you guys can guess. Back in twenty twenty one, do
you remember what my favorite Casey ten.

Speaker 3 (13:55):
Doll song is?

Speaker 1 (13:56):
This middle Man, isn't it?

Speaker 3 (13:57):
You look at that?

Speaker 2 (13:57):
She's so good these for a lot of years. Hey,
for for people that that may not have heard that
once in we're gonna play that one tomorrow on the radio.
Call on KKTC True Country ninety nine point nine out
there in Tawas. So we're gonna play that one tomorrow
morning as we feature and talk about this great show.
But man, you know what a what a song that
makes somebody cry, and we talked about emotions and it
didn't have to be a hit to make somebody feel

(14:18):
something there, But man, y'all really put the magic spin
on that yeah.

Speaker 1 (14:23):
Middleman, you know, it's it is for you know, I
have divorced parents and I was lucky like they got along.
It was wonderful. And so that song, I wrote it
about having divorced parents, but it was just it was
great for me. And when I put the song out,
I realized that, you know, I was really writing this
for other people who might not have had such a
great experience with divorced parents. And I may or may

(14:47):
not have a little surprise about that song that I'm
tell you about. Just gonna put that out there, but yeah,
it's it's, uh, it's my favorite song and I got
to write it with my best friend, uh Lanney Will
and it's just it's just such a special song. I mean,
that's another one we say that God was totally a
co writer because I mean the lines just kept falling

(15:09):
on Scott and it's it definitely is another one of
uh the fan favorites for sure, and so I played
it every show and but yeah, if you've got divorced parents,
or if you're divorcing you got kids, you'll love it.
Go check it out.

Speaker 2 (15:23):
I love what you did with it or the rendition
when it got in the studio and came to life.
I love when that drum kicks in. That drum just
hits to build up to that chorus. You're whoever your
drummer was on that too. May That's where it started
to kind of like I feel this, it's building up here,
it comes, we're gonna each the peak, we're gonna fall
back down, We're gonna come up and just this roller
coaster ride that it takes you off from start to finish.
So you're come in your drummer in that one for

(15:44):

Pass exclusively on KKTC True Country and ninety nine point
nine in House, New Mexico.

Speaker 2 (20:17):
And back in casey Tendal on the Backstage Pass powered
by the Sports Guys podcast dot Com out there too.
So how much fun was pulling weeds because you guys
really got into this one too at the same time
and could feel more of the song.

Speaker 1 (20:31):
Yeah, Oh my gosh, we just got to rock on
this one, which I love. Paul Loise is just you know,
whenever you're in the valley and you should feel like
you just can't catch a break. That's what this song
is about. And you know, we just we went in
the studio and I just said, I just want to like,
I really want to feel this one, and I mean,
I want to rock on this one. And so that's
what we did and it's it's a banger. It's fun

(20:53):
and yeah, I hope you guys like it.

Speaker 3 (20:56):
Love that one too.

Speaker 2 (20:57):
We get to play that one too this week on
KKTC True Country. Also Babies was out there in twenty
twenty two. I know we've touched on this one in
the past, but for again those listeners that have not
heard out there too, that one makes you understand. I
became a father there just about what four years ago.
You've obviously became a mom too at the same time,
so you really think about that, you issue, You don't

(21:17):
think about that when you grow up, but then when
you find your significant other, you start saying, yeah, when I.

Speaker 3 (21:21):
Become a mom, when I become a dad. I kept
hold in the blake.

Speaker 1 (21:24):
Right, oh totally. And when we wrote that song, it
was like that was you know, being a mom was
nowhere in sight for me. And every time I would
go home, like all my friends back home were having
kids and have them were divorced by then, you know,
it was just like everything was kind of moving past
me a little bit as far as normal life stuff.
And then I found my husband and we have a

(21:48):
beautiful baby girl. And it's just so funny now playing
that song because I'm like a totally different season, but
it's such a good song. I'll always play it, all right.

Speaker 2 (21:57):
So I got to ask you about this when you
mentioned how Laney, you know, being on one of your
best friends out there too in the industry. Just to
see her take, I had her back in December of
twenty twenty on this very show. I made that prognostication.
She goes, Brandon, don't do that. I'm like, no, when
I hear it in the music, I hear it, and
You're gonna be around for a long time. Amen, tell
country music too. In just a couple of years, I said,
you're gonna blow up, blah blah blah, entertainer, You're the

(22:18):
whole nine yards.

Speaker 3 (22:19):
Well, thank you for those compliments. Okay, go back.

Speaker 2 (22:20):
You guys can check out the interview there at the
Sports Guys podcast dot com for you just to see
her step on stage and man to see a single
four by four by You, which is unbelievable when it
comes to again, lyrics mean everything to me in a tune.
When she stepped on stage at night at c Amazed
and put those strings to it. What was going on
in your mind in your heart to see her step

(22:41):
out there and do her thing.

Speaker 1 (22:42):
I mean every time she I know she's been kind
of killing it for a few years now, but I
feel like every time she wins an award or she
does something cool, I just it definitely doesn't get old.
It feels like the first time seeing her do something huge.
And it's so fun to watch, especially because you know,
we've been friends for a long time, so just seeing

(23:02):
the journey and seeing all the hard work and seeing
all the determination and the faith and just you know,
I just love it when good people win. And she's
a good person. She's exactly who you think she is,
and so it's just been really really fun to watch.
And I got to write. I got to help her
write a song on this record that's out right now.
It's called barn Baton Rouge, and so it's just it's

(23:25):
been a really special year just watching her and getting
to be a little little tiny part of this record
that she just put out. But I'm just always so
proud of her, and she's just killing it, like just
killing it.

Speaker 2 (23:38):
I wonder if I sit here on the show here
in December of twenty twenty four, next year or tubes
Randall loppry more of this. The award shows Casey Temball
right in that same category as Landy Wilson. Can I
make that prognostication?

Speaker 1 (23:50):
I love it in Jesus' name, Come on.

Speaker 2 (23:54):
I love it because I love your accident for North Carolina. Dudes,
when you talk, you got a little bit ladies for Belusiana.
You've got a little of that too in your voice.
I'm sure people have told you that out there too,
to say time. Were you at the opera when she
got inducted? I know you had to be sitting there
at the opera.

Speaker 1 (24:10):
Was I there? I don't know. I couldn't be there.
I think I was on the road when she got inducted.
But I had someone like FaceTime me because I was
like freaking out. That cool, such a special moment for
her and her family, and it was just so fun,
so fun. I wish I could have been there.

Speaker 2 (24:27):
That's sure one of the best out there, no doubt
to do it. Hey take people back a little bit
too uh place for me because that was twenty twenty three.
I remember that one from last year too and loved
that song everything about it. You get a chance to
work on that with collaboration Dylan Marlow too out there,
who was headlining or one of the show openers there
for a CMA at Nissan this year. How much fun
was it to work with Dylan and then put this

(24:49):
one out?

Speaker 1 (24:50):
So fun?

Speaker 6 (24:51):
You know?

Speaker 1 (24:51):
That song for me is just you know, I just
kind of I figured if my granddad could go ahead
and soak it out, and that's really all it is,
just a it's a good old country song. It's about
being country and just the way of life. And I
wanted it to be a collaboration and I just was,
you know, I got to think, and I'm like, who
is just such a good dude, good country dude and

(25:13):
the first person I thought I was doing And luckily
we caught him right before he blew up, so I
was like, hey, really you want to come do this?
He's like absolutely. So that song has just been so
special and so good and everybody loves it and yeah,
it's it's one of my favorites.

Speaker 2 (25:29):
Well, I can't wait to see that sinus. You put
that thought in my head with the Middleman about what's
coming up next or could there be something coming up
next to And I was looking at that one, I
was like, man, you know got me to thinking about
Vinyl records and how people in how are starting to
because I just talked to Runaway Junior on the show
just back in late October, and we actually did the
debut on WSM for the current single they put out.

Speaker 3 (25:49):
At that time.

Speaker 2 (25:50):
Any Vinyl plans for for Middleman or anything coming from
the Casey Tendall camp, because I love Vinyl and now
you've got that old school sound. You got that man
to your to your heart too. It's cool for nineties country.
I'm waiting to see if VINL comes out for Casey
ten Dog because I gotta get a copy.

Speaker 1 (26:03):
I might just have to wait and see. I don't
know how much I can tell.

Speaker 2 (26:06):
You he again, tell me, is there's one that was
Preachers Need People, a Grand Barham who I've had on
the show before. Another fantastic artist right there too is
doing his own thing out there. How much Pune is
it another collaboration that you guys got to put your
spin on for a Preachers Need People so fun.

Speaker 1 (26:24):
That's also another one of my favorite songs that I've
been able to write and be a part of. And
you know, he just kills it and he kind of
like jumped on the scene with that song, which is
super cool and he's killing it, and yeah, I love
that song.

Speaker 3 (26:39):
Well, I tell you what.

Speaker 2 (26:40):
We always love country music out there and anything that
gets my attention out there too, and the tune for
me because I always tell people there's nothing wrong with
being country. This was her debut single when it came
out there, and I'm gonna go back to twenty twenty
when I came out twenty nineteen. Somewhere in there, I'm
losing track of time. Anyway, might have been twenty twenty two.
I have no idea, but anyway, my dates are off there,
but the time the song there too was a lot

(27:01):
of fun and a lot of just that attitude the
sassin there too, because you know what it's like to
grow up there in North Carolina. I'm here in Texas
obviously too with me and nothing wrong with being country,
and you really made that song come to life.

Speaker 1 (27:12):
Amen. That was one of my favorite songs to record
and It's one of my favorites to play live. We've
been opening all the shows with it. And the day
that we wrote it, you know, I think I was
like in my call. I got to my co write
early and I was scrolling on my phone and I
just saw something that just rubbed me a little wrong
and it was just kind of talking down on country

(27:34):
people in general. I can't remember exactly what it was,
but it was just it was kind of just a
stupid website, I guess. And I walked into my co
write and I just said, guys, there's nothing wrong with
being country. And then Cole Taylor said, well, we're gonna
write that today. So that's how that song was born.
And yeah, we've been opening the shows and probably gonna
keep doing that.

Speaker 2 (27:54):
That's that's the tone for the show, no doubt. I
go back even before that and one of your albums.
I got a chance to listen to the between Salvation
and Survival with that one too, and man, you really
make this one come to life. And if it's not
in the in the set, it will be probably at
some point. But that Boots stomping song, to me really
set the tone for that particular record, right, Yeah, totally.

Speaker 1 (28:12):
That is so funny looking back at that record and
just seeing the growth since then. But yeah, we used
to open the shows with that song back in the day.
It's always a just gets people on their feet, and uh,
it's a good one for sure.

Speaker 2 (28:26):
And then two things you need off that record, bottle
and the Bible another two things that we're on there
too to make a great song title, right, amen, tell
us how that one got started.

Speaker 3 (28:38):
A little bit, a little backstory of.

Speaker 1 (28:39):
Thought on the Bible. I mean, I think, honestly, I
think that was just a good song. There's really that
is one of the ones that's not like a super
you know, I don't have like the I didn't go
through something to necessarily write that song. It was just
a really good song that I felt like needed to
be on the record, and it just had such a
powerful message and I knew that it would relate to,

(29:01):
you know, with a lot of people.

Speaker 2 (29:02):
So l let's have a little fun with rapid Fire again.
All the songs out there at Casey tendelofficial dot com
and of course out there where you guys downloaded stream
music out there too. Nashville notes stranger to restaurants every
time I come there for one of the major events
and radio stuff at Radio Road. It's getting bigger and
bigger every year. I got into some some taco places.
I settled my hot Chicken debate out there with hetty

(29:23):
Bee's over the Princes, which could be reversed if I
ever go to the original Princess from what I hear,
because I did not go to that original location.

Speaker 3 (29:30):
There on Broadway. It was so busy.

Speaker 2 (29:31):
But hetty Bee still has my attention. What are some
of your favorite places when you guys kind of go
out and just hang out. You mentioned the Cmas and
stuff like that. What restaurants do you kind of dive into?

Speaker 1 (29:41):
Man? You know, if I've gone to go to like
Broadway and eat around there, if like we're doing something
kind of like you know, for the awards, Blanco is
so good. It's it's a really good restaurant that's like
right across from Nissan, I mean from Bridgeton. That's so good.
But you know, I also I really love when I

(30:04):
get to play there, but also just going to see
friends play there with the listening room. It's just it
has such good food, but it's such a good vibe.
It's like one of those like, if you're going to
visit Nashville and you want to do something kind of
you know, do what the locals do, and you want
to take a break from Broadway somewhere like the listening
room is really really cool. But also I mean, you
got your staples, your losers, your you know. I guess

(30:25):
it's the duck Line now, yea is now the duck Line.
But that that whole little midtown area is so fun
and it's got such great food. But yeah, definitely Blanco
on Broadway and the Listening Room for sure.

Speaker 2 (30:38):
And if you want to get your walking in right
there too, you can hang out all day on Broadway
and check out all the great stores everything down there too.
And when you walk in somewhere, somebody's going to be
singing down there too.

Speaker 3 (30:48):
Hey.

Speaker 2 (30:48):
I may have asked you this on a previous episode.
If not, it's for the new listeners out there too,
in Tawison, up in the Colorado out there for a KKTC.
If you'd never become a working musician, what backup career?
Was there a plan B of something like that.

Speaker 1 (31:00):
Before I decided to really do this and take a
chance and move to Nashville, I was going to school
to be a nurse.

Speaker 3 (31:07):
How about that?

Speaker 2 (31:08):
See Hidden Things you find out here on the backstage
past eleven so much, and I'm with you here. I
kind of hope if it's not my Arizona Cardinals this
year too, to even get in it. They won't win
Super Bowl. I'm just going to say that, but I
hope that the Buffalo Bills and the Detroit Lions, though
both sides of Lake Lake Erie out there too, would
be kind of cool to see the Bills actually win
a Super Bowl. To throw the whole sports side of

(31:29):
it in there too would be cool. I mean the
snowball we saw just this past week, but how cool
would see Buffalo get in the whole thing and win
it all.

Speaker 1 (31:35):
I mean, my husband's family would be so stoked about that.
And I know you know Megan Patrick, Yes, Bill's fan
on the planet. I've never met a bigger Bills fan
than her, other than the guys that wear no shirts
and hub beers and the snow But I know she

(31:56):
would love that, that's for sure. But yeah, it's that
would be cool.

Speaker 2 (32:01):
It led with a Bills conversation, not a surprise before
he even got the latest album that she'd put out
out there. Well, the latest music out there is Oh
Come all you faithful, Casey Tendall out there too, Casey
Tendall Official dot Com and of course out there to
all the songs available for downloading streams coming up there.
Twenty twenty five is gonna be big for her, no doubt.
And I'm making that prediction right here. A superstar in
the making she has been for the past five six
years and just continuing to do her thing out there

(32:23):
and stick to the great songs and authentic music. Hey,
I always appreciate you stopping by and sharing us lying
here on the backstage pass. Looking forward to seeing you
hopefully at CRS if you're going to be there in
February with those dates coming up in twenty twenty five,
and much respect, much love for you, and I hope
just a great holiday season and more success coming your way.

Speaker 1 (32:40):

the show. I really appreciate you and all your support
and UH can't wait to come back.

five in the next few years, no doubt. About it

corner coming up in the spring there too, as well
