The good times keep rolling for the duo as they head to the Big

their smash debut single, “Cruise,” on NBC’s Late Night with Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday (12/12) and the following morning (12/13) on FOX & Friends. Check local listings for show times.
Earlier this week, FGL released their aptly-titled debut album, HERE’S TO THE GOOD TIMES,
on Republic Nashville. Produced by Joey Moi (Jake Owen, Nickelback),
the 11-track project showcases FGL’s fresh and exciting sound, which is
drawn from an eclectic mix of influences ranging from country to hip-hop.
FGL has sold-out multiple headlining shows and has been opening for
Jake Owen on the “CMT On Tour,” giving fans a preview of the new music
in recent months. In January 2013, they’ve been selected to open on Luke
Bryan’s “Dirt Road Diaries Tour.” Their energetic stage presence and
infection lyrics have earned the attention of fans and Superstars –
Taylor Swift, Keith Urban, Jennifer Nettle’s (Sugarland) and Dierks
Bentley – alike.
