Even before they celebrated the Fourth of July together, Brett Young and his wife Taylor were in the habit of going to the beach on Independence Day, so that's become their ideal celebration.
“Fourth of July, for my wife and myself – we met because she had a roommate in Arizona [who] was from Newport Beach, which is where I’m from," Brett explains in a statement from his label. "And even before we met, she was going from Arizona to Newport Beach every 4th of July.
"And Newport Beach closes down the streets, and it’s like beach cruisers and all the homes on the waterfront throw little parties," he continues. "And it’s a lot of families, but it’s also a lot of youth, and we’ve just always loved that. And so, like whatever the PG-13 family oriented version of that is – I think it’s fireworks at the beach and barbecuing out on the sand during the day, and volleyball and family and the whole thing."
Now that they're living in Nashville, and Taylor is expecting their second daughter in a couple weeks, it may be next year before they're able to do that again. "We don’t know exactly what that looks like for us yet, but that is what we gravitate towards," Brett concludes.
