We were so fed up with how we had to be the stereotypical girl who looks perfect in the music video: she's coming out of the water in a bikini with her long tan legs. Not all of us are that girl.

We just feel so blessed, like God picked us two goobers to do this crazy thing and speak up for people that don't have a voice and give them something to hang onto. If we've done that for one person, I think we've done our job.

Radio Disney is the greatest. As a place where young people can come together, have a place to hear music that doesn't think about genre or whatever, it's an amazing place to have a home!

We wrote 'Fly' in such a vulnerable place where we weren't sure if we had what it took or we would ever make it. Now to have that song on country radio and have our fans singing it back is just wild, because we remember that exact moment, feeling that way.
