#203 - Tenille Arts on Being on the Bachelor, Growing Up on A Wheat Farm and Top 3 Life Moments

00:00:00
Speaker 1: Right, this new episode of the Bobby Cast brought to you by the number four four. Uh do you ever watches me? Straight? They're going over to HBO mm hmm, rightbo Max, which is just HBO. It's basically like everybody's like Disney Plus. They're all having their own services. It's HBO not really no, No, they do HBO Go. Yeah, but that's basically just HBO on demand. But this is like actually putting shows specifically just on this service. So they're developing new shows just for it. But my point is they could develop shows, they already have a digital platform. They could just put them on HBO Go. But I think everything on HBO Go airs on HBO. I know what you're saying. My point is that they could just continue HBO Go and I have to change the name of it. That's true because some people only watch HBO shows, myself included online. I don't know rhbos on my TV listen. I'm sure they have research to back this um. But my point is Seting Street is only on HBO whatever. There's just too many of them. There's the Peacock, which is NBC Disney Plus, which is a lot of the properties of Disney but ABC nat GEO a lot of a lot of that, which I had a real good call today with net Geo. I you know, I did Beary Grills show and as an aarity editors in January, and I've kind of become well, I'm a big fan of what I would call it, let's call it integrity programming, meaning they're not doing many shows just to be a flash, and you know that's not let's see how quick we can get pregnant those kind of shows. You know how what was the channel that would do all those nutty shows like that if they were oh the Overweight Family. Yeah, like they would do a lot of those shows like just finding people and go, well you're a bit different. Let's just do a show about you just for fun and see if people like it, love it, hate it, laugh at you, sympathize it. It It just felt like they were doing that a lot of them. Um, I like that Geo because they got a there's just like real substance shows. So anyway, I was like, I would like to do a show over here, and so we had a good call today with that network. I'd like to do a show, but I don't know if I will. But um, yeah, so that, but that's one of the ABC. Plus, UM's let's see what else. There's Peacock, is it HBO? There's obviously Hulu and Netflix and Amazon, and there's Google, but Google is not building its own programming, right. Google is just where you can buy everybody else's in movies. And then there's Apple. Oh, that's another one that's coming out. What else? What about CBS that have they announced one yet? Uh? Not to my knowledge, they're gonna have to. There's so many freaking platforms and still I think if I bought every one of them, I wouldn't pay as much as I do for my cable bill. Now I'm not sure that with CBS because they sold the rights to Big Bang Theory. Yeah, but that's okay because there are shows that sell the rights. You're saying, you don't know if they're coming up with one with their own, because then I mean they would have that on there. My point was right, um, because NBC ended up buying the Peacock, ended up buying back The Office, But Friends is going over to which one? HBO? It is? Yeah? That interesting and don't think about that. So it's just who pays its syndicated shows once they're off the network, it's whoever pays the most. Basically, yeah, like Seinfeld is going over to Netflix. Netflix. All of this to say there's a lot I can't keep up. I'll started track a little bit. And I still think, as I mentioned a second ago, if I paid money for every streaming service, it still wouldn't be as much as my cable bill. Which one will you have? It just depends what good shows come out. And I feel like if a if a platform has three great shows, I'll probably subscribe because then I'll believe not only do they have many. I don't subscribe to Hulu because only watch one show on Hulu, Handmaids Tale. If they were to hit a cup two more, I'd price subscribe because then I believe in their programming. In general, I don't believe in who lose original programming right now. I'm sure they have a lot of great shows. I just haven't been exposed to. And how I get exposed with these shows or people recommending them to me. I think that's mostly how shows are are sent around is grassroots. Hey you see this and you post about it, then next thing you know, you're watching it. I don't have Hulu yet I buy Handmaids Tale on Amazon episode by episode. Um, I have Amazon Prime, but I get that because I order stuff on Amazon, So I have that one and I will continue that one. I have Netflix, although Netflix has become sets the standard that I'm bored by it a bit now, which isn't fair. They're making a lot of great stuff, but I'm like, what what you got? Board? And I used to like, I want new common special will come out. They're putting out so many common specials. I can't keep up, so I don't watch any of them unless it's somebody I already liked, and I'm saying they're the best one I've ever seen. To me, Norm McDonald loved it. But have you watched Nikki's yet? I did watch it. Yeah, I haven't seen it yet. It's good. I enjoy it. Yeah, she's obviously super funny. She did a podcast here, so you can check that out. But I watched a bunch of Netflix show so obviously that I'll probably get NBC because they'll have the Office, and I watch The Office every night when I go to bed. Um ill for sure get Disney Plus already subscribed to you. If you get in earlier, you get it for like a little rate. Yeah, so I got in the pre sale because they'll they'll have some of the superhero shows that I like, and then hopefully maybe I'll still be on American Idol or be on an ABC. I like working for ABC, so hopefully I'll stay over there. Yeah. They had me on that all the Marvel stuff they're coming out with, and then they'll have all the Star Wars stuff. So I was like, I'm gonna get this anyway, I might as well get it cheaper. They also have net Geo over there, which would be nice if I could do a show over there and you can just stream it all the time. Um HBO, I'll probably get I'll have to cut my cable. I have to. There's no way I'm gonna pay Bucks or whatever I'm doing here for cable. That's probably internet too. Yeah, and then not watch it because you know what to watch now Sports Live and even then I can watch ESPN on my phone. I don't know anyway, I have no idea how we've got on this topic. Do you uh what spiral we walked down? I've never had cable though, I've never needed it in your life? Nope, how old do you eight, Okay, but that's not a super generational thing. Then it's close. If you were twenty three, I would say it's a generational thing, but twenty eight you could a head cable. We couldn't afford it, right, That's what it was. And now that I understand, I remember one summer I would just go to my cousin's house and watch. I was like, what is this? How many channels do you have? Remember going over my friend Evan's house and he had a satellite dish in his backyard and I was like, good god, yeah, I was huge. It wasn't like the dish now or like one of those. It was like a freaking fuge like you were trying to take a signal from from sput Nick. It was. That was the sign of well to the trailer park when you see somebody with the dish. God, um, all right, we're about to get into it with Daniel Arts, who I had never met um leading up to today, and I think you're gonna enjoy especially we kind of really get into it about fifteen minutes. So it takes a because most of the time there's a lot of times I at least met a lot of these folks beforehand at some place. Um, so she came in. We get going. I'm a big fan of her music, which is why we brought her in. I've put her into the I Heart Country Playlist a little bit. And as you'll hear, she ends up just grabbing her guitar when we're like, you brought a guitar, and so she did. And so I was like, all right, so the first time ember someone plays on this show, and if you're listening and you come to the show, don for the pressure of bringing guitar. But I was like, that's a pretty baller move. She's brought a guitar with it, So okay. So Tanil Arts we talked about even the two to Niels Tinnil Arts and then Tinnil Towns, who we had another Bobby cast with. You could listen back to that. Other than that, check out a couple of the podcasts on the Nashville Podcast Network. Amy has a podcast called Four Things with Amy Brown, which he talks about four things in every show, from health, fitness, from faith and family, and you can see the four things on every episode. It's really a fantastic podcast. I'm really rooting for that one to do wonderfully. It already is doing great. You can check out the guys if you like sports, the Sore Losers show, and they're on three times a week, usually four four times a week doing that show. So you can check that out. In Velvet's Edge with Kelly Henderson where she choking about a lot of lifestyle stuff in Nashville, it's a it's a real female lifestyle based podcast. Caroline Hobby has a podcast and she has so many great saved up episodes because she's currently got a new baby and fresh baby, yeah, super fresh. She's in a picture of you. I sent her big baby basket. Now quite know what to get someone who doesn't have a baby registry. I can appreciate a registry because all I could just push a button and buy them something. I couldn't find her baby registry. So just got a baby basket and did the supermarket sweep thing where you take your hand and just pushed off into the basket. So I sent her a basket of stuff and she send me a picture back with her baby. She's like, he loves his blanket. What a great pick. And I was like, great pick. I just swung it and go basic. But I'm Glad that Glad the baby liked it. Check out Caroline Hobby. It's called Get Real with Caroline Hobby. Am I forgetting anything? That? Is it? Alright? Enjoy this next episode.

We talked about grassroots and telling your friends. We appreciate you telling your friends about it. All right away we go. Here is the next episode. All right, here we go Episode two oh three with danil Art. How are you? Hey? I'm good? How are you good? All the pretty good? I was looking at your Instagram. You have a lot of followers. Where did that? What's the deal? Where did that come from? I don't know. I mean I've been on social media for a really long time and on YouTube, and yeah, I've just been like really trying to keep up the online presence. I was doing a little deep dive about you, and I had seen that you were on The Bachelor twice, not as a contestant, although that'd be a good story too, but you played how do you? How do you land getting on the Bachelor? To play? Well? My manager had been sending my music into them for a really long time, and they just came across some of my music that they loved. The first song was called Moment of Weakness, and it pretty much sounded like we had written it for the show. So it worked out really well and I performed on one on one date? Could you remember who it was? Um? It was Ari and Chelsea? Okay, so Mike, do you know who Ari is? I do? Okay, help me out. Good looking dude. I think it's like kind of great here right? Oh yeah, okay, So I got it. And that is the season. I don't really watch the show. I don't hate people to do. By the way, don't get mad at Bachelor Nation. He's the one that was like he broke up with the girl at the end of the season. Yeah, he picked someone and then broke up with her and then picked the like second place girl, like now that I can admire anyone that kind of is not status quo on that show. I like, okay, so you you play for him and Chelsea? Did they stay together? Was it your song? Was that the reason they didn't stay together? I hope not. No, she left. She had a kid, so she wanted to she had a kid on the show, not on the show, but I think she wanted to get back to her her son, so I think she ended up leaving the show. So tell me what that's like. Them playing do you have played over and over and over again for the cameras. Yeah, we play it a few times. Not It's like definitely a surprise for the girl. I think the bachelor knows that this is going down because I think he has like a hand in picking the dates, but the girl was completely surprised when she walked in and we played the song a couple of times for them to get their shots and everything. But then we play it again multiple times, and that makes sense so they can shoot you. Yeah, they can get close ups and stuff. But it was really awkward because nobody told me if I should look at the cameras or not, so I just found myself staring at the couple dancing and making out, and it was so awkward. I didn't not know what to do. It was Yeah, that was that. But so let me hear some of this moment of weakness and I'm gonna imagine a couple of dancing, right. That is quite a bachelor song because you're basically begging them to make out right there, You're playing that song like, all right, have your moment weakness, right, You're on camera, so we can document it. Okay, So you go on the show and I would imagine, because I've had some friends go on that show and play, there's a nice pop with your music. The day after it airs. Oh yeah, so that was pretty cool, right, that was really cool. That had a huge part to do with my social media and just my music getting out there in general. So but then you go back again. Yeah, so then they're like, hey, you riveted our couple so much, we want you to bring that back for another couple. Is that what happened the next time? I don't know. They're just like they became a fan of my music and they wanted to help me out as a new artist. And I think it's really cool and kind of unexpected to be a part of something like The Bachelor, Like you wouldn't think that's a great way to promote your music, but it kind of is. I mean there's a lot of people that watch that show and it's like the perfect age for my music. So they asked me to come back. So you go back and then you play for this one was Coulton and Elise. Okay, Now if I remember they're not together, you're over too. I'm just telling you your success right on this show is not good for the couple of staying together. I've played really early on in the show, so I feel like, you know, you never know what's going to happen at that point. So Colton and Elise and what are they doing? Like, Yeah, it was in a big theater in l A. So there was actually an audience there. Okay, so a little more natural way. So you're playing in a theater and how does that? And part of me for not knowing this, how did they set that up? Do they fake like they're walking in on a show or they're both big Tannil Arts fans? Yeah, sometimes they do it like that, not that they'd be faking it, but I'm gonna I work. I do a lot of TV two and we fake a lot of stuff, not not originally, but in order to redo it again and again and again. We have to sometimes go all right, let's shoot this again. Yeah. So they walk in like, oh, yeah, we're big fans of Tanil Arts, let's go Is that what it wan? Yeah? Basically that's what That's what happened. It was like a surprise for the girl and everything. But she ended up messaging me like right after that episode and was like, I'm gonna remember that night forever. I love your music. So she definitely like dove into my music after that and so and then there you have it too. You need one more though. You gotta get on a successful You gotta get on a couple of the stays together. Right now, you're the Clayton Kershaw of of the Bachelor's just not working out for you so far. That's pretty cool that they brought you back. And what song did you do there? Well, it ended up being a song called I Hate This, which was a breakup song which you predicted what was gonna I do? I like that song this, I hate the song I've I've programmed into the heart. The Women of by Heart Country Show. This is a good one, not that the other one wasn't. I just had never heard it. I liked this one a lot. When you hear your own music, you kind of bob your head and you still do you like to listen to your own music? I do? Yeah, yeah, because when when we played that, I felt like you kind of felt that a little bit. Yeah. I immediately started thinking about when I like wrote it in who it's about? And yeah, I go there every time. So you wrote that is okay, good. It's a perfect segue into this. We have a lot of songwriters that come on the show, which you are obviously um and, and they talk about song. So let's talk about this song specifically. How long ago did you write it? It would have been like a year and a half ago. Oh still pretty fresh? Yeah, pretty new. And it's funny because when I had originally written it, I wasn't going through a breakup or anything like. I was kind of imagining what that would be like and everything, and then I went through a breakup and that song it was so hard to go out and sing that song at every show. So a song that you didn't write about your breakup ended up being hard to sing because later on you went through a breakup. Yeah, that's kind of Mike. We've never heard story like that, right, Like they write a song and then it comes back into their lives about their life the breakup, and then it's hard to think about that. But yeah, not the only way, like Carly when she would come into like I wrote every little thing, and you know, I would play and think about the breakup every time. But you didn't break up with the song. It just came back to haunt you later, it did. Interesting, So you write this song and you did you write it about the boyfriend you had at the time, and at least, like did you predict You're predicting the breakup, aren't you. It wasn't that far before we ended up breaking up, So I think that I had a little bit of that in my mind. But I always try to like take from personal experiences or try to imagine what it would be like if I was going through that. You wrote you wrote this with the guy name Adam Wheeler. So you guys hop in a room together, and how does that work with you? You go, Hey, I got this idea, I'm probably gonna break up with the dude, Like how does that work? I didn't say, Okay, yeah, no, it was. I had written a lot with him around that same like time period, so we knew what was going on in each other's lives and and he knew that things were like a little bit rocky in my relationship, and he had talked about some of his past relationships, and we really just kind of dove into it. And the song. It's weird because the song isn't really about like a breakup. It's about that time period right after you break up where you don't know if you're going to end up getting back together or if you're just going to actually stay broken up. Because I feel like there's a little bit of hope during that time where you still love that person and you still think maybe you know, something might work out, but then you know eventually you have to deal with the fact that, okay, maybe it really is over. Let's talk about that for a second away from music. Like most times, let's still a little public service announcement. It doesn't work out. If you're gonna break up, it doesn't work. I'll tell you from my experience, you feel like you know I might work out, Let's get another try. But I'm gonna say probably of the time if you break up and you're like, m, maybe we should give it a try, because it could it's not going yeah, because I think once you break up, you think that those those things will maybe like work themselves out, and then when you get back together it'll just be like a fresh start. But it's not. There's still like all of those things that you all of those issues I guess that you had before you know what you should do. This is maybe a lesson for you, you you little bit younger than I am, or anyone watching this or listening to this, if you're struggling in your relationship and you don't know really what to do to make it work. Have a baby. Oh my gosh, when you say that's a go, I just have a baby, then you're stuck and you have to make it work. Problem. Yeah, I would say, yeah, fixes fixes all the problems. You don't agree with that, Um, why don't we do somebody like that? Which is this is the single? Now it is? Okay? Here is somebody like that? All right? Well? I wrote this one after writing a ton of breakup songs. I was like, I'm done, Like I'm done writing these breakup songs. I want to start looking for somebody again. I want to, you know, start putting myself out there. So I got in the writing room with Alex Klein and Allison Belts, and we were just kind of reflecting on relationships that we had seen go really well, like looking at our parents, looking at our grandparents, you know, just kind of those relationships that we idolized as kids and looked up to. And you know, I have a lot of great relationships in my life, and and I feel like we just looked back on, you know, maybe love that we had or love that went really well, love that went bad, and just kind of looking for the right kind of love this time and not settling until we find it. And how long would you write this song? This one would have been about six months ago. And did you predict the future? Much like you predicted the demise of the Bachelor, you'd make this song? And did somebody like that come along? Predicted the future? That's what you need to do. You need to write more song predicting, predicting future songs. Yeah, my therapist says, you gotta like see the good stuff to you, But then I do when it never happens. So then I started seeing the bad stuff again. You have an accent which is interesting, a bit of not so much of a Canadian one, a little bit. I dated a Canadian girl for a long time, so I'm very experienced with the Canadian talk. And your your your little hybrid English French a type language. But it's a little country accent too. Yeah, So what, like, what tell me about like a town you grew up in. I grew up in a really small town in Saskatchewan, in Canada, and my dad's a wheat farmer, so we grew up like in the small town, but then we also had the family farm, so I spent a lot of time out there. And because a wheat farmer, huh, what is that entail day to day? I mean, for us being in Canada, there's like a very short sound like a week right where it's warm enough anything. Yeah, I mean it pretty much starts like end of May June, and harvest time is like September October. So is it vacation? Is it like snow vacation? They're all the rest of the year as a wheat farmer. Well, my dad had another job that he worked that whole time as well. Um, but yeah, I guess for most people, or they've got like cattle or something, but we don't aweat farmer in Canada. I didn't think about that. Like when I flow to Toronto, Whish by the way, I don't know what's in the water up there, but you guys are way too nice and I enjoy it. I enjoy it. But even with my ex girlfriends, she's way too nice and now we'll be like, why are you being so nice to me all the time. But it was just a natural. It was just like in you guys blood. And I didn't really realize that until I went to Toronto and people would just like stop on the road to talk to me. And this is Toronto to which is very metropolitan by the way, it really close to New York, and you would think would be a little different than than you know, Saskatchewan or um Vancouver or a lot of these other places that I was failing with. But people were just like, hey, sir, and I'll be like, what's up? Would you like a dollar? Not asking for the homeless, people were offering me money in Canada. It was so different than here and the States were like, gonna get a dollar? They were like, so I don't how much? But why don't you have my last dollar? Canadians are nuts, man, It's awesome. So um, it was my point with all that might really yeah, I feel like I was onto something there, but so your dad. But all my point is I was flying in and I would see golf courses in Canada and I was like, what week do you get to play golf here? It's so cold all the time. And so you're do you have tractors? Yeah? Okay? And how big was his wheat farm? Um? People always ask me this and I always forget to ask him how big it is. But I mean, we've got a lot of land. Do we need to call your dad and ask me to because we have a phone connected right there, we can call your dad. We want to get your dad on the phone. I'll call him, Okay to Neil, don't press me. Hey, Mike, can you call her dad? Okay, We're gonna call her dad and see if he'll even just answer the phone. All right? Does he what's he doing? Is he? Is he? What is today? Today's Yeah, they're trying to harvest right now, but it just snows. Can get interrupted by a phone call and his daughter has your dad. Ever been an interview before? No, okay, it's first. Is it gonna be nervous? Yeah, we're gonna plug the phone up something. We have this phone here to Neil and so sometimes we'll do phone interviews. If people are in Los Angeles, are you freaked out about your dad being on Well, I'm just like he never answers this phone. So we might go through all of this or nothing. That's all right. We didn't say we didn't try, right mine and this might this phone rings all that I'll be because this is in my house, which, by the way, if you're a dog barking and you're listening to this is because my have a bulldog puppy and I put him away for this interview. But I can hear them barking down. Do you hear them barking? No? No, he does this some time. Are you so cute? All um? And so this this phone. As soon as we bought the line to start calling people, it rings. It'll be one o'clock in the morning. Oh is it just like random? It's like people trying to sell me stuff. I thought it'd be like Janet Kramer, who we call on it. They're like, what up? No, it's it's some people trying to sell me stuff. All right, you wanted to show you the number off the camera? All right, let's see, by the way, everyone listening right now as we as we look at this followed to Neil on Instagram. T E n I L L E Arts to Neil Arts. That is her name? There? Do we have a dinaltone, Mike? We do? All right, let's see if we and what is his name? Well, Kevin, know that an unnamed Nashville phone number is probably specific to you, maybe, okay, because I never would answer a call if I didn't know who was ever. Yeah, I mean, well, he's just like he'll leave his phone. Does he have any idea who Bobby Bones is at all? I just I was just talking to him last night. I was like, I'm doing the this show. Okay, I don't hear anything, but you have reached Okay, text him and say, hey, we're trying to call you. Can you answer the call? Here? Okay? All right? Um, let me read you a little b about Tanil lest she does this here. Let's see she won five of the Saskatchewan Country Music Association Awards for all which you were nominated. Okay, might you still have his number? I don't. Okay, he needs a phone again. What we're doing is really hacking your phone. What's the trick we do with everyone? So maybe he'll see that. All Right, we're gonna keep going, Mike. I guess we have to hear it. Huh Yeah, Okay, that's all right, We're good. So tell me you're on Revival Records. How long you've been? How'd you get that? That deal about a year and a half ago, and so how did they get onto you to sign you? It was actually it had a lot to do with The Bachelor. I performed on the first time I've performed it was, yeah, completely without a label, And we were having like a viewing party for the episode here in Nashville, and we had Gator from Revivor Records come out to the show because I played like a little set before the episode aired, and it was pretty instant, like I met with him and the whole team, and I was just like, this feels like a perfect place for me. Well good for you? Yeah wow. And so then you become a millionaire soon as you get signed. Yeah, of course that's that's that's how it works, right, And you're just loaded yeah, Mike, if we don't get him this time, we'll just give it a rest for a bit. Ye, okay, that's all right. We're still gonnaet him. He's gonna text. He may be listen. Well he listened to this. Yeah, oh yeah, he he loves to listen to it. Like I'll be home and I'll hear him watching and listening to my YouTube videos. I'm like, Dad, I'm right here, super supportive dad. Yeah. So what about your mom? They still together? Yeah? Okay, and what does she do? She used to work as a lab tech in the hospital, but she is was a stay at home mom. From my entire life, a lab tech like needles, Yeah, you know. I had a cousin once who was training to be a lab tech and she said, hey, I need to borrow you for needle practice. And I was like, first of all, it's not gonna happen. I don't do needles very well. That she was like, I need to do needles in your knuckles because apparently they have to learn if they can't get it from your arm, they have to draw it from your knuckles, and so I don't do I didn't let her do it, obviously, but I didn't know you could draw needle from knuckles either. Did your mom draw from people? She did? Yeah, if you were sick, could she help you, like giving you I v S or medicine. She never did any of that stuff, but I mean she had medical knowledge, so she I mean, she would help us out as much as she could. All Right, So you moved to the States win four years ago. You've only been here four years, so okay, so do you do the whole Canada thing first where you're you know, you like I'm gonna be a star in Canada? Not really. I mean I was a little bit involved in like the Canadian country music industry up there, um, and they had a really cool program that I was a part of that was like the Discovery program where they help you out, give you the connections and everything. But I always knew that I wanted to be in Nashville. I made my first trip. It was it's almost exactly ten years ago when I first came here to you know, write and get involved in everything. So I always had my sight set on Nashville, and so I didn't spend a ton of time focusing on on the Canadian scene. So what was it for you? That made you go, I gotta move down there. I think I had just seen so many people. It's just such a community, like Canada, so spread out. I wish they had a place that everybody could go and write with each other, because there's really there's nothing. I mean, everybody's so spread out. So I knew that Nashville was just such a community. I knew that some of my favorite songwriters, some of my favorite artists. That's what they did. They once they could, they moved to Nashville and they made their connections and they just started building it from the ground up. And that's what I wanted to do. So you tell your parents what. Well, the first time I actually came down, I was fourteen or fifteen, and I had just been putting up YouTube videos and stuff and a manager called our house and he was like, hey, I want to bring you to Nashville and I want to see if you know you work well with this girl because he was proposing me to be in this duo. So what you got justin Bieber a little bit. They see you in a little bit as a kid. Someone says you on YouTube and says, let's do it that I bet that would be creepy to me though, I'll be like, really, what's happening here? Yeah? I mean, oh, my dad was super skeptical about it. My mom was excited because I was excited. But yeah, it was definitely kind of like a well, let's just go see what happens. Like let's me say about it, but yeah, let's go see what happens. And it was so they always knew that that's where I wanted to go, so they were supportive of it, and when I moved, they were like, oh, yeah, go for it. So what happened with that duo? It just didn't work out. Our music ideas were so different and it was kind of like a Maddie and Tae thing before, like pretty much right before Maddie and te So, well, who was the girl? Is she around? Um? I think she's still say it? You know, she's still in town. I don't think so. I think she went to call somewhere. Hated each other. Huh. We didn't get along. Oh I was just kidding, but yeah, we didn't get along. Oh, Mike and I don't get along. Yeah, we just kind of sit here and okay, so you come and you go. Okay, Well, Nashville where I want to be. So you go back home and you finish school. I did. I finished high school, okay, and then you go. As soon as I'm done, I'm out of here. And so when did you actually pack up and moved down? I stayed for just like a couple of years, just saving up. I still lived with my parents and everything. And yeah, I was twenty one when I moved down, the first time I had ever lived on my own. Got a one bedroom apartment, the whole thing. Who moved with you? Mom? In a What tell me the story you get in the U haul? Do you get with a trailer? We we did the drive twice. The first time we took her car and just loaded it up and drove as much as we could down just to get moved in. And then I ended up driving back again. I can't really remember why that happened, but I took I have like a little yellow Pontiac G five from when I was like sixteen, and we loaded that thing up and I still have that car. We drove it all the way down here, and my mom stayed for about a week to just get me settled, and then she hopped on a plane and left me by myself. What's the drive? Full twenty five hours of driving and still took us about two days. Do you still have that car? Do you still drive that car? Like with this millionaire record deal, you should have like Mercedes, you know. Talk about that for a second, because that is a quite the misconception because you sign a record and listen, when I signed my record deal, I actually think I went in the hole. I think I lost money. And people think when you sign a deal that it's just like a whole bunch of money given to you. Um you're a bit different than I am. You're better tell me what happens when you sign a deal. Well, for me, my deal was pretty unique because my publisher, um so I had been living off of, you know, being a songwriter and signed publishing deal first, sign a publishing deal first, and about halfway through that first year, my publisher was like, we should record this stuff on you. He knew that I wanted to be an artist, and so he really started just helping me out with all of that stuff, which was really really cool, and I ended up signing kind of he created a label, I guess for me to release music. And so when I ended up signing with Reviver like that all still kind of stayed together. So not much really changed for me other than having, you know, all of the label and everything. But yeah, I know, it's not like you're just like handed a bunch of money and like, yeah, you're a signed artist now. Mostly they go, we're going to pay for you to do things, and even then you got to pay us back. Yeah, that's really unless you're a major artist switching labels and they're trying to woo you. They're going, Okay, we're now going to pay for you to make a record, and we're gonna pay for you to travel and do what they call radio tour, but you will pay us back or we would drop you. One of the two things will happen. And so it sounds sounds amazing, doesn't it. But it is cool to actually get a deal because they're actually supporting you to go out and try all this stuff. It is, and I mean without that, it would be really really hard to to do all of those things. If you didn't have that support. Would you put on YouTube? What song? Uh? Like the one that I go There's always there's always a video. It was fifteen by Taylor Swift and I was fifteen singing it. So that's what got me here. And when they called, they asked for you, how why how do they get your number? That's the whole thing that I still have not figured out. I don't know how they found me, but I mean I'm glad that they did because I learned a lot from it. But um, yeah, they literally just were like, hey is to kneel there and to answered the phone and talk to them for a little while, and yeah, it was weird, grand old Loppry debut just happened. Yes, amazing, Oh my gosh. I still can't even believe that it happened. Like it was just one of those moments where you're like it feels like a pad on the back from the country music industry, you know, just everybody here being like you deserve to be on that stage and make your debut. So I think that's what meant so much to me. And I had a ton of family and friends, everybody in town for it, so it was just a really big deal and it made me feel very special. Yeah. So the the operate the first time is like a your eyes wide open thing. You'll like this second through the ninth or tenth time because you actually can take it in. There's just a lot of people there. In the first one. The first time that I played it, I was like, holy crap. And I do comedy a little bit of music, right, so it's not definitely not the same, Like you're a legitimate artist. I'm a joke, so you it's just so many people like oh my goodness, Oh my goodness, that it's really hard to take it in. Yeah. I feel like that would be what a wedding is like, even never married. It's like the build up is like so crazy and then it's like over in a second, and you're like, oh, it is quick. But I will say, I don't know if you're playing it at anytime soon, but you you actually enjoy the opera experience from now on more. Yeah, yeah, because you can. You. For me, I struggle with even seeing anyone in the audience because I was just like, oh my god, this is crazy. I'm up here playing him in the circle, um, and so I really didn't see the people out there. From now I walk out there, it's it goes much slower. Yeah, that's good. It's you can take it in. You can actually breathe and talk in between segments. If you want to there's not the pressure of all your family being there. Good pressure, but there's still a lot of pressure with everybody watching. Yeah, it definitely was like a little bit of pressure. But I tried to. When I walked out there, I was like, for whatever reason, I wanted to like watch my foot step into the circle. So I made sure to just like take a moment to like see that moment. That's cool. Are you that kind of person? Are you take a moment person? Yeah? I try to be, especially with those like really big moments, otherwise it just gets away from me sometimes. A Top three Big Moments in your life. Okay, let's let's let's walk backward on this. I know I'm giving you a second on this one. You're twenty five years old. Top ree Big Moments of your life at number three, at number three, at number three in American we go backward to one. It's like a big build up. Can I still use the operation of course? Yeah? Nothing, Number three, number three, uh, performing on The Bachelor? Okay, which one or two too, because it was it was just bigger and more people like that. So that's number three Life moment, number two Life Momentum performing the Canadian national anthem at the NBA Finals recently. Yeah, that's pretty cool. It was a big one. It was something that literally when I started working with my manager, I was like, the one thing I do not want to do is sing any anthems. I am terrified. And that was when I got the call for that. Obviously, I was excited and wanted to take that that opportunity and take that risk, but it was the most terrifying moment of my entire life so far. Uh, what did you sing with any a band or totallyfella? Yeah? So was there any sort of echo back on top of you? Yes, because that was tough. There was a lot of people and just you're kind of trying to keep my note in my head walking out to the spot where I'm supposed to sing. I was so worried about that. And then they have all these rules about like you have to take a hard left to like walk off so that you don't get hit by the flag that's coming out for the American anthem, And there were just so many things to think about. So I explain how we're gonna get to number one in a second, but explain how you're holding your note all the stuffs happening around you? What are you doing inside your head? If if you watch back any of the clips, I'm literally just like, um like singing it in my head constantly. But you got it? Yeah. And the thing, well, I don't know about the Canadian anthem, but the American anthem, if you start a little higher than you're supposed to, you're done. Oh yeah, what what's the Canadian anthem like? It's not difficult to to sing like. The range isn't as crazy as the American anthem. But I think for me, I overthink anthems so much. I'll go over the lyrics in my head a hundred times. There's almost a no win. No, there is a way because it's number two on your list, so that's a win. However, in the grand scheme of doing the anthem, if you go out and you nail the anthem, you were supposed to nail the anthem, life just moves on. If you screw up the anthem an the anthem life does not move on. People get piste. So it's a lot of pressure where if you nail it you were supposed to thank you go about your day. But if you don't, holy crap, I mean I actually ended up getting a lot of criticism. Why because I changed it up a little bit. We took it, made it your own. It's not American idols nail but okay. Like the anthem is like oh Canada, and I went, oh Canada. Probably wouldn't have done that for me. I just got Robert Gooley and watched him and done that. Oh god, that's not me. So I went out there and I did it the way that you know Robert Goula is. He's I think he's. I think he's Canadian. Do you know who he is? I do know he is. Yeah. I saw him saying that Canadian WrestleMania once and for some reason, he's stuck in my head. You see if Robert Gouley is Canadian, because if he's not, I feel like I can do. Okay, good for you. That's a number two singing the Canadian national anthem at the NBA Finals. And who was the game? What was the game? It was Toronto and it was the last one Gold State. Yeah it wasn't the last, but they were, yeah they were. Yes, it was in the finals. It wasn't right. Okay, I don't know sports, but yes, that's what happened. Okay, So but who won the game? Uh, don't say Golden State because if you do, this may be the cursive to Neil you don't know, will go to Toronto. Then and Kauai had a big game as a whole thing. Yeah it's a big yeah. Um Robert he is of Canadian descent boom from where well he was born in the US, but ancestry is in Canadian Canadians Canadian. Who's the most famous person you're growing up in Canada? The most famous person to me? Okay, because she was from Canada and also massive and probably the most famous to everybody period in North America. Okay, so Shania Twain, who anybody else? Because we're I'm on the radio and Saskatch one? Is that a town or a province? Okay? So dumb, forgive me, because here's what happened. I love the people in Canada. Can't get enough of them. That being said, I was thrown into so many places at once that they're like, you're in all that and I'm trying to learn as fast as I can. I'm a big Ottawa Senators fan, although they suck, so I wear the hat proudly. But then may be the worst run hockey organization in the NHL. Are you a hockey fan a little bit? Okay? Who's your team? Well, I'm I just help on the bandwagon of wherever I am. So friends, Oh, you don't have like a Canadian team? I don't. You didn't did your dad like watch a team? I mean, like wek up as a family. My brother played, so I mean the most hockey I watched was him playing. And I also played for a year, just saying but yeah, um played hockey. Yet you don't have like a team that you watched. Okay, so you're a Pretts fan. Yeah, I like to actually go to games. Watching sports on TV just does nothing for me. And you played hockey? Also a dancer? Yeah, and you answered that confidently. So you're a good dancer. I mean I was competitive, especially with like tap dancing. That was kind of my thing. Um, but my little sister is amazing, and so I once I decided that I wasn't going to be a dancer, she really she like ran with it. She loves dancing and she still does that to this day. How many years did you dance? From the time I was like three to eighteen? Oh? A long time, did you have Winny championships? I well, like I went to competitions all around, um, like the provinces, boarding mine and a few in the States, trophies on some crap because I want a trophy dance and I like to brag about it a little bit. I danced for four months and well, yeah, there you go. That's right, And that's a pretty big trophy. That's right. That's right. So I probably imagine if I dance for fifteen years, all the trophies I would have. Um, Okay, so you're in Canada. You moved to the States. You've been here for as of today, like four years. That's it. Huh, Well you're just a baby and yeah, actual terms, and you have a record deal and you've got music that's already. That's good for you. Thank you. Kind of popping a little bit. Well, I just decided. I was like, if I'm gonna be away from everybody, because like I moved here not knowing anybody, my entire families back in Canada. I was like, if I'm gonna move here, I'm gonna put my head down to make sure that this time is worth it, and my time away from my family and my grandparents, everything I needed to make it feel like it was worthwhile. Is it frustrating to not find a key chain with your name on it? Yes? Because I don't know. I never met it to Neil until I met the other one, and I was like huh, And then I heard and I was like, there's another. So Tannil Towns is a friend and she opened for me for a lot of tour, for a lot of my comedy tour last year. And then I was like, they were like Tanil Arts and I was like, no, you're saying it wrong. It's aid Town, not Art. And they're like, no, there's another Tanil And I was like, well, how about that. That's kind of weird. What does she you know? What were she from in Canada too? Same age? That's confusing? Isn't that crazy? Did you guys know each other? Oh? You did from like a tenail chat room where you guys everbody tail would get in to talk with each other. Actually, the first time I met her, she had one of her good friends with her and her name was also Tanil, So what's what's happening? Is there something Canada where they name him after captain? And Tanil is a big big thing. Mike is Tanil Canadian from Captain Intanil. I don't know who you looked at up. I know that she was born in like Montgomery, Alabama or something, Tony. So you know this already because I thought that was weird because I grew up on Montgomery Crescent. She was from Montgomery, Alabama. Does that have any thing to do with your name? Well, my parents named me after after they loved the name. But they also gave me two middle names just in case. Captain into what sings songs like muskrat Love. I don't know how I know that. Did Kevin hit his back on the on the text? Not yet? They're apparently they're not Canadian. Um. Okay, so let's do we do this sometimes your mount Rushmore of artists. Okay, you get four, however I allow five because everyone always goes, let me add one more. I'm gonna give you five, but you can't go let me add one more. We're already doing that plus one. So okay, five artists on your mount Rushmore. Who is your first artist are? It doesn't matter genre, it can be any genre. First artist like this is no order? Well, okay, you don't have to rank them, but you can if you want. Are you saying right now? No order? No order, because they'll probably come to me as as we do this. Um well, I grew up listening to Paul Simon, so I'm a huge fan of his songwriting and everything. Um yeah, the whole record, the whole record. Okay, go ahead. Um oh man, this is already hard and I'm only one person in. Um, Shania Twain has to be in there. Ah, I know I'm going to do this and forget somebody and be really sad. Um Keith Urban, Kelly Clarkson, And you got one here that counts. It's not a bonus that you get five. So so far, while you're thinking, we have Paul Simon, Shania Twain, Keith Urban, Kelly Clarkson, Oh my gosh, can I call a friend? Um, I don't know. That's a hard one. There's so many good artists like I feel like, but if you pick nobody, then you get nothing. Yeah, you're not bound into this contractually, you know. If you leave this house and decide, you can just see me overthinking everything right now. I'm like, wait, do I okay, pull up a playlist on your phone? What do you spotify? Apple Music, whatever you have, pull it up, Okay and we will. Let's look at the last song. Great, yes, love it? Okay, no, no, no, Let's look at the playlist. Well, I don't really have playlists. You'll have like liked songs like the last songs you liked. I don't do that. Let me see your let's see your playlist here, Like I'm kind of all over the place.

I don't know how to get library I got you. Technology is hard for me. Check it out a lot of chumba wamba. You're a big fan and I'm just kidding.

This is this is some stuff here. Um, you have a lot of some artists named tennil arts a lot. Wow, are you in the fan club? Who's Twin Kennedy? They're also friends of mine. Okay, so we get a lot of shout outs here, and that's all you have, all your songs, you listen to yourself and your friends. I like that. Well, I gotta download my own stuff and make sure that like nothing's wrong with it, you know, when it goes out there? All right? Um, well, why don't we let's let's I'm not gonna ask you like really sing or anything, but let's grab this guitar, Mike. Let's see what's happened over here. If we get Kevin to call us back.

So what we're gonna do here? Because we're gonna play very light? I have we never done this before. So let's see what it sounds like. Well, let me make sure. I like to go no tuning. We like to go out of tune. It's kind of our style here on the show. Okay, Mike, you wanna see how this sounds. You have to check it out. Okay, Um, you want her to back away from Mike just a little bit, maybe just a little bit. Okay, it's the opposite what we just did.

You're like two ft tall Monga's boys. Thank you, Michael. Take your guitar from here. He'll be sure to drop it there it is. Let's check one more time for Kevin. I would love to have had him on the show. Did he respond to your text? No? Mm hmmm. He probably liked your brothers and sister better, huh. I bet if they texted he probably would have been like he literally just never has his phone on him. So what's the story with your brother and sisters? You have one? You have to total one each. I have two sisters and a brother, okay, and you are in the mix. What what what level. Second youngest okay, And your oldest is Brittany. Okay, And what's Brittany do music at all? It's not really no. Um she her husband was in the military in Canada. They moved around a lot, and now they're back in Saskatchewan starting their own company. So they're they're working on stuff there. It's a drone company. Oh that's cool. My coast husband has a drone company. He was in the military too, and now they apparently all fly drones and look at our windows and who knows what everything about our lives. And then your brother is older than you, and what does he do. He went to school for a fine stuff. But he's also been working at the farm as well, so he's We're all just kind of all over the place doing our own thing. And your youngest sister is a hockey plan dancer. Is that true? She just dances. Now. Are they very proud of you? Yeah? They like keeping up. Are they super excited? Yeah? They keep up. And my little sister and I talked like really often. But um so, since we're both kind of very I guess you know, we like hair and makeup and photos and and doing all of the fun stuff. My older two siblings felt like they were not in the group or whatever of us performing sisters. So they created their own Instagram called like the other two siblings or something, and they recreate our photos on the farm. It is hilarious. Yeah, it's it's pretty funny. So they they're all supportive and yeah, so parents, four kids. Any animals growing up? Yeah, we had a dog, yeah, just one. Okay, no cows, no, what kind of animals are on farms in Canada. We had just like a lot of straight cats, like farm cats just running around. All right, Mike, anything for Tanil. We're about about to wrap this up. I'm just amazing good that was That was awesome? Yeah, that was really good. What's cool? Does we could hear everybody's saying maybe hear about on the show or out that's really good. I don't know that. I was not expecting it to be, but it's really good. And we've never done that before. You gotta brought your guitar and a ball or move. It's like, I just have my guitar. If you need it, let me. That's it's cool. I like that. Here's so I work on American Idol and I mentor a lot of these these kids, a lot of the kids need more of the music mentorship. A lot of the older people kind of need the kind of the life how to go to the the reality show. But I tell them, and I think you could probably speak on this too. If someone asked you to play, just freaking play, yeah, that's it. If someone's like, hey, do you play, don't take a thing, be like, well, I'm not really right now, you know, let me think it. Go like, play your freaking song always because you never know who's listening. Who may that personally not going to get your record deal, but they may hear you and go, oh this person you should you should hear that. That's the thing. You never know when you're going to be discovered. And I think the more you play, the more you get out there, the more chances there are. You know, you can't just sit in your bedroom and sing songs all the time and think that you're going to get somewhere. Here's my my neighbor overheard me sing in my backyard and recommend me to get in vocal training. Is that familiar at all? Because it didn't happen to me. It happened to me. So you're singing and just doing how old are you? Oh my gosh, I was probably like seven, And your neighbor hears something in your voice and says, how you should go and learn to sing the real way. Yeah, she came over because I was always just like belting out and I twain songs or like whatever I was listening to or making songs up, belt him out in my backyard. And my neighbor just came over and she's told my mom, She's like, I think she has a great voice. I think you should try to, you know, take her somewhere, see if she can do something with it. And of course I loved that my first voice listen. I was so pumped and just so excited that, like that's what made it feel real to me at eight years old, seven or eight, whatever it was, I was like, that's gonna be my career. I'm going to do this. Where did you start singing as a kid? Publicly? I did like a couple of little like local festivals and things like that. But also because I was doing classically um trained music, I also performed in like the music festivals and stuff, and you would sing what kind of song it was a classical trained performer there was like a book songs out of Okay, um, you do you have another record coming on the next year. Yeah, yeah, we we know when it'll be early, and people listen to these things forever, so it may already be out when this thing is. You may be hearing the Tinnial Arts podcast because we've done a lot of these Mike where people have at early stages and they've got of blown up and you can go back and hear them. Because this is episode two hundred and three, So early on we had some artists on and early stages two and they were like, I don't know, We're just trying to get something going. And you go back now and you're like, holy crap, Like now they're they're a big deals. So hopefully, uh, this this is what happens here. Okay, well listen, we've I think we've said everything that that we need to say. You feel like you learn a little bit about you. Yeah, Kevin, Kevin will not call us back if you're listening right now, Kevin, we tried. Before we wrap it up, we're gonna we're gonna give it one more. Look, not yet, I'm gonna ask you a few random questions here and then we'll call this a day. What's the last concert you bought tickets for? I bought tickets for Casey Musgraves and I didn't get to go. Which show? It was the one at the Rheman the Golden Hour tour went I did? Yeah, really jealous? Yeah you should be. It's it's great. Yea. Why did you not get to go? I had a show come up, great reason to not go exactly? How about that? Good? Okay? So question number two, what's the last movie you saw in theaters? In theaters? Um? I think it was that last show, um, last movie of the Avengers or whatever? That my Yeah, what's it called in game? It's good? Huh? It was long. Yeah. Well, here's the thing. I didn't watch any of the other ones because there were like three. I saw most of them, but there were only three or four that I didn't see, and I felt a little out of it at times. I can only imagine what you felt. No, it's knowing. I was very out of it. Well, actually, I think I saw the Captain Marvel won the Girl. Um maybe, yeah, I saw that one before. But also at the end of that, I did not know that this was like a big thing that was going to be coming to an end, and everybody was sitting in the theater still like waiting to see whatever they show at the end of those movies. I had no clue. I was completely in the dark that this was a whole series of things and that's the last movie you saw. Okay, are you on the road a lot? Now? Every weekend? You're going out? This weekend, I am. I'm leaving tomorrow. Where do you go? I'm going to Deadwood, South Dakota. Wow. Yeah, it's a trip. Yeah, you're driving the Pontiac.

What is your hobby and why do you do it? It's a lot of my things have to do with music, But like this one thing that I started doing is like painting on the backup jean jackets. So that's kind of like a hobby thing that has become something that I think. That's a wonderful answer. Um, you're in a jacket now, that is very painty. But you didn't paint this one Okay, let's check one more time for Kevin. This is her dad. Three. It's okay, Dad, we'll talk to you. We'll do a whole podcast with him, Mike at some point.

It was one, but it was great. Yeah, as you walk out the house, and I always wonder if it's weird because this we'd normally do this earlier in the daytime, but because of my schedule, so weird this week we actually did this one at night. It's fully dark right now. I'd always think it'd be weird going to somebody's house for a show, like someone's like coming to the come to the house. We're gonna do a show like this. Gotta be a little weird, right, I mean not really. I was like, I'm coming here with my manager. I don't know. Okay, doesn't matter to me, great, I wouldn't.

We're just saving it, all right to me. Al Arts, I'm gonna talk to you, everybody. Check out her music. Her new single as of right now, this recording. The song is called Somebody Like That. Um. I really like the song. I hate this. I put it on the National Female Show a couple of times.
