Subscribe to RSSNew Josh Interview with The Boot
Josh recently tweeted a new interview he did with The Boot. It’s a really good one in which he talks about how he ended up going country, how song bonds him and Katie with their daughter Naleigh, and more.
Here’s a specific question about how some of his past songs seem a little country, as I previously noted. Glad things won’t be changing that much!
Lyrically, a lot of your past hits could be country songs. So is it safe to assume your writing style hasn’t changed much with this new album?
Yeah, definitely. The lyrics and the songwriting process are all the same. The only thing that really changed was the production, but not too much. I have some songs that are a crazy mix of different styles, but that’s because I didn’t have anybody telling me I couldn’t do it. And I could put a hip-hop album out, but I grew up on a farm! We grew up listening to country music our entire lives. My first concert was Randy Travis. My mom took me and Charles when we were kids. And then my dad took me the following week to see Vince Gill. And then we saw the Judds. My first five concerts were country.
I also love the story he shared about how he’s basically responsible for the formation and development of Lady Antebellum. Hilarious! Definitely check it out!
