Smooth (Commentary)

Hey, y'all, it's Florida Georgia Line. Keep listening To hear all the songs on our new album, Dig Your Roots Thank you so much for listening to Big Machine Radio. Hey there I'm Becca, and we are about to dive into the Florida Georgia Line Dig Your Roots album release special. The album is in stores now And I'll tell you what: the guys have really outdone themselves With this third album. We're gonna play all 15 tracks from Dig Your Roots, and we'll be hearing from Brian and Tyler, getting Some insight into the album, the stories behind the songs, and a Whole lot more. Getting us started, it's track number one from Dig Your Roots. It's called "Smooth," and Brian Kelley says he Loved the experience of writing this song. He says the swampy Woodsy feel of the track is right In their life wheelhouse these days "Smooth" is probably one of my favorite songs on the Dig Your Roots Album. We wrote that late in the fall out at Tyler's farm with Nicole Clausen and Jordan Schmidt, one of our good buddies, and we've Written with Nicole many times, and it was our first time, just us Four, and it was a beautiful, kind of chilly day, and I remember I Had told Jordan to make kind of a modern-day "Fishing in the Dark" Track, and he showed up with that track, and, uh, Nicole had the Title for "Smooth," I remember that, and I remember Tyler came in With that hook on the chorus, "Good Lord almighty," uh And that kind of got us going down the chorus. We just Wrote real hard that day and had a lot of fun. It's Something that, it's a little swampy, it's a little woodsy And, uh, it's right where we're at, really fun to play live I gotta admit, it does feel good. Crank it up For "Smooth" from FGL on Big Machine Radio
