Brett Young shares his message for the Class of 2020.
“What’s up Class of 2020? It’s Brett Young here. I know that this has to be a kind of confusing and frustrating time. You’re supposed to be celebrating such a big accomplishment an important time in your life. And here we are all social distancing and quarantining. But I just wanted to send a quick little message of encouragement. We’re all doing this together, we’re all in this together and there’s gonna be something really beautiful that comes on the other side of all of this. And we will all be together again. But in the meantime, this doesn’t lessen or cheapen your accomplishment at all. You did it. You deserve to be proud of yourselves. Congratulations. See you soon.”

Carly Pearce shares her message for the Class of 2020
“Hello, high school graduates. It’s Carly Pierce and I wanted to send a little message, first off, congratulating each and every one of you for such a huge accomplishment. I know that high school isn’t easy and getting here is a huge deal so, congratulations. I also know that this is probably the last way that you thought you would be graduating and I know it’s gotta be difficult. I know that it’s missing out on a lot of things. I know that it’s a lot of confusion and a lot of sadness, but I am here to tell you that it won’t last forever. You’re going to have so many amazing memories to look forward to in the next four years as you figure out what you’re gonna be doing and going to college and meeting new people. Hang on to all of the memories that you have in high school and know that it is a large world with lots more memories coming. So congratulations! Hope to see you all on the road sometime at a show.”
FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE
3. Florida Georgia Line – Class of 2020
Florida Georgia Line share a message and some words of wisdom with the Class of 2020.
Tyler Hubbard – “What’s up Class of 2020? It’s your boys here, Florida Georgia Line. First of all, I want to say congratulations. It feels like yesterday we were just graduating, so it’s such a special moment for you guys. You’ve worked so hard to get there, so congratulations. Best of luck in the future, and why don’t you give ‘em a little piece of BK advice?”
Brain Kelley – “Ooh, okay. So, a little piece of advice (a little nugget) … Take chances. You know, if you feel like you’re supposed to move somewhere, go chase a crazy dream or create something, or go to college in a certain place, follow your gut. Follow your dreams, and we both have this conversation about the simple decision to move to Nashville, or not, because we wouldn’t be Florida Georgia Line, we wouldn’t be where we are today if we both hadn’t moved. And it’s definitely a God thing to bring us together, to make us a team, but to have individually moved, you know, you have to take a leap of faith and you have to get outside your comfort zone. And that’s not for everybody. Not saying everybody has to leave their home town and chase crazy dreams. There’s amazing things that happen everywhere. So, find what means something to you, go chase it down and get it. Love y’all. Congratulations.”
