“I’m ready for the last great adventure: fatherhood,” Wakefield told People, who first shared photos from the Opry moment. “We have always wanted kids, but between all the travel and time our careers have exacted from us, it’s been hard. Jenny has been a super hero during this pregnancy and I can’t wait to watch her become a mom. I also can’t wait until our kid is old enough to show pictures of our announcement on the Opry. What they did for us was really special, they’ve got some stand-up folks working over there. Plus, it’s another reason for me to put a guitar into our child’s hands as soon as possible!”
“I can’t wait to see Adam as a dad,” added Leigh. “He’s a kid at heart and is already the best uncle to my 3 nieces. During our wedding week, when the TO DO list was a mile long, I came home from a meeting to find all of my garden hoses connected and tarps spanning the entire yard. He had stopped what he was doing and created the ultimate slip-n-slide for the girls. Something tells me I may be the disciplinarian.”
Texas Hill recently released their debut album, Heaven Down Here (1/21). The 12-track project, which further the band’s soul-soaked, in-your-face harmonies, includes previously released tunes from their self-titled debut EP plus five new tracks including. The trio first began writing and performing together in 2019 and announced the band publicly in June of 2020 via Billboard. Since then, Texas Hill has found a fan in anyone that takes the time to listen. American Songwriter recently mused that, “despite their unique strengths, the combination of these three artists works—and it works exceptionally well.” “Hearing our voices blend together was something that got us all excited and, from that point on, we have been 100% resolved to make it happen,” James told Billboard.
