0:45
super excited about it. Single's done
0:47

0:50
one of my favorite projects that we've
0:51
done.
0:52
>> So, the official title is Satisfied
0:54
Country Gospel Classic. So, this is a
0:56
full gospel album.
0:58
>> It is. And uh some Merl Haggard Gospel,
1:00
Living Brothers Gospel, Original Gospel,
1:03
uh Happy Goodman Family. There's all
1:06
Yeah. A lot of good stuff on there.
1:07
>> So, we've talked, so I know you guys,
1:09
but why did you want to do a faith-based
1:12
album? Well, it was something uh we we
1:15
started out in gospel music and um at
1:18
one time we were doing 175 churches a
1:20
year and um and so we started out doing
1:24
that and it's how we were raised and uh
1:26
past couple years is something we've
1:28
talked about doing. Um
1:30
>> it was kind of strange.
1:31
>> Didn't really know
1:32
>> how to go about it and Ben Isaac's
1:34
approached us about doing one. Right
1:37
after we had talked, him and I had
1:38
talked out of the blue, Ben said, "Would
1:40
y'all be interested in doing a gospel
1:41
record with Gaither?" And we were like,
1:43
>> and it was just one of those God things,
1:44
you know, and um so we sat down and he
1:47
said, "Will y'all pick some of your
1:49
favorite gospel songs?" So we picked a
1:52
bunch of them that we had done, you
1:54
know, growing up. And um and so it was
1:57
just it was a the whole album's fun and
2:00
it's just very meaningful project.
2:02
>> You picked a bunch of them. You picked
2:04
20 of them.
2:05
>> 20. I know. And Ben's like, "I need I
2:07
need a list of songs." I was like,
2:09
"Okay." And he was like, "Keep sending.
2:11
Keep sending." And I was like, "Oh my
2:12
gosh, 20 songs. That's crazy."
2:14
>> Well, I had 20 songs I wanted to do
2:16
>> by myself. Yeah. Not without
2:18
>> But Christopher,
2:20
>> he wouldn't let me do it.
2:21
>> Rude. And then not only did you record
2:24
20 songs, you did a live DVD, which that
2:27
is a whole another thing.
2:29
>> Yeah. It it was interesting cuz I
2:31
thought, you know, okay, we're going to
2:32
do this in studio and BM was like, no,
2:34
we're going to do this live and had an
2:36
audience. Our parents were there. It was
2:39
packed. We did it at Huckabe Theater
2:41
where he used to do his thing. So, it
2:42
was it was crazy night. It was a a lot
2:45
of emotions, a lot of fun, but a lot of
2:47
emotions, too, cuz it was kind of memory
2:49
trip down memory lane for us. And uh
2:51
it's a special project.
2:53
>> Favorite track?
2:54
>> Uh I think Sheltered in the Arms God is
2:57
my favorite one. And that was a Ben
2:59
Isaacs. He brought that to us and said,
3:00
"I think y'all need to do this one." And
3:03
uh it kind of we had a a sick family
3:05
member, Taylor's father was sick at the
3:07
time. And it that song just really was
3:09
kind of medicine for all of us at that
3:11
time. So that was
3:13
>> I don't know. That's my favorite.
3:14
>> That was my That was my favorite one. I
3:16
actually it was my favorite first and
3:18
then he took it.
3:19
>> I mean, he's your brother,
3:19
>> but then yes, but I sang it so it can be
3:21
more my favorite. Is that right?
3:23
>> Whatever. Okay, we have to move on
3:25
because other big things are happening
3:26
and we only talked a few months ago, but
3:28
other big things are happening. There
3:29
was a proclamation about the Malpest
3:31
brothers.
3:32
>> I know. Yeah. What? That was so nice.
3:34
