“We really got back to our roots with the new music. In fact, roots is kind of what this song is all about. We’ve lived a lot of life in the last few years – we had a baby, we both lost parents – and our new music reflects a well-lived life, both the ups and the downs,” said Keifer and Shawna Thompson.

The digital release also includes b-side tune “Are We Gonna Dance” – a laid-back, mid-tempo love song co-written by David Lee Murphy (best known for hit “Dust on the Bottle”) and Jim Collins (“The Good Stuff” for Kenny Chesney, “Baby Be My Love Song” for Easton Corbin), the writers behind the pair’s debut hit, “Are You Gonna Kiss Me Or Not.”
