Question: Why is “Six Feet Under” last song on the album? HARDY: “Six Feet Under is the last song on the album, because it’s a little different than the rest of the album, and I historically have done that, like with one beer on hixtape, with the redneck Song On the Mockingbird and The Crow with a Rock on a Rock, and it’s just the song that maybe has a little bit left of center or something that you maybe least expect. And to me, it just puts a nice little bow on the end of the album, a nice little emotional stamp, or a moment at the end of the album. For people maybe to to be like, damn, that was a good album. At least that’s what I hope. But yeah, there are some strategy to making that song. The last the last song on the album, it was that it was the the theatrics of it all.”
Question: Are you a cat dad?? Morgan Wallen: “I don’t know if I’m not a cat guy by any means. I like my cat, but I would say if I had to pick one. I’m a pick a dog. Sorry, Oscar. But I do like having a cat. It’s nice and it’s a lot, you know, it’s a lot less work. And he’s a really friendly cat, you know? He’s not one of those cats for you’re scared to walk around with it. You know, because I have been around those kind of cats before as well. So he’s a he’s a good one. So I, I’m a fan of cats, but I’m not going to say I like cats better than dogs because I don’t.”
Question: Tell me about writing “Six Feet Under (Caleigh’s Song)” HARDY: “Writing six feet under alone was actually more emotional than I thought. And, the fun part is, I actually kept it a secret from my wife until the final record was actually done. So I got to play it for her in its final form, and it was a really cool moment.”

Question: Y’all officially moved to Nashville right? Larry Fleet: “Yeah, we moved to Nashville, almost a year ago now. I bought some land and I bought a little old house that it was on this land, and I drew plans that were trying to redo it because it was. What some might call a tiny house, which was not going to be big enough for us. And so we drew up any plans. We were going to, you know, build this, this cool thing, and then the codes and all the stuff in our little town there didn’t work out. And so, I was fortunate enough that I was able to sell the little house back to the guy that sold it to me, which is good at the time. And then I was like, well, what are we going to do now? So we searched around for a house and my brother does some real estate on the side, and he said, hey I know a house they might want to sell. It’s not on the market. I said, let’s go look at it. So we went over and, talked to these people and they said, well, we’d be up for selling it. And, I looked at it and it was the exact house that we were that we drew up. And I said, what are the odds? And it was sitting on a little bit of land and. So I bought it, and, we love it. It’s our house, and it feels like home. And so we got my neighbor. He’s a he’s a songwriter, and, Cody Johnson’s producer, which is kind of cool. So we got multiple songwriters and stuff on the street, so it’s kind of a cool place to live.”
