As the year comes to a close, it’s a good time for Brian and Tyler of Florida Georgia Line to reflect back on the year and try to wrap their minds around everything that has happened in their careers. “It’s been a dream come true and a huge blessing for us and somethin’ that we could have never imagined,” says Tyler Hubbard. “It’s a huge testament to our fans that have made our dreams come true and sold out all these shows this year and just showed up and spread the word. We see it every night, it’s unbelievable.”
The guys are also incredibly thankful to country radio for accepting them “for who we are and what we wanna do and our sound, and a sound that we believe in, and kind of a get out of the box a little bit, it’s a beautiful thing.” So, this whole year in general has been amazing and we’ll never take it for granted.”
Heading into 2015, Florida Georgia Line’s latest single, “Sun Daze,” is on track to become their seventh consecutive #1 song.
