Brothers Osborne On New Year’s Eve Traditions
It’s been a banner year for Brothers Osborne. One of their biggest nights was when they took home a pair of ACM Awards for Vocal Duo and Video of the Year in April for “It Ain’t My Fault.” We talked to them about ringing in a new year and they joked about the oddity of New Year’s Eve traditions. Here’s what
John and TJ were recently discussing how strange some new year’s traditions are.
“I think it’s kind of funny how we spend literally the last moment and the very first moment of every year being extremely intoxicated, extremely, because you don’t want to wait until like 12:30 to get your buzz on. You’ve got to do it before midnight, and then once midnight happens, you’re like, ‘Omigod! Now it’s time to celebrate even more.’ Debauchery is the literally bookending your entire year.” TJ: “I love how everyone starts the year off with diets and then we end the year with like excessive amounts of food. And then you get to the end of the year, you’re like, ‘Oh, I’m going to start a diet on the 1st, so I’m going to eat everything that’s in front of me.’ I love it.” JOHN: “And come February 1st, ‘what diet?’” [laughs] TJ: “What diet? I’ll start it next month.”
Brothers Osborne extended their headlining tour into 2019.
