“Nashville was a dream for us but it always felt slightly unreachable. I guess we were waiting to be ready, or for the right time, but one day it just… clicked. We didn’t have to wait. We decided to stop talking about it and just do it. We'd saved up a bit of money from playing festivals and we used that t to book the flights.
