Zac says it was love at first kiss for him and Shelly, who met after one of the band’s early concerts.
“We ended up New Year’s Eve playin’ a show. My date had stood me up,” Zac recalls of that night he first kissed Shelly. “I remember walkin’ back to my friends with like two minutes before midnight and thinkin’, ‘I’m not gonna have anybody to kiss on New Year’s,’ and there she was, standin’ right there and I remember kissin’ her. “
Zac says that moment was “game over” for him, and he’s been with Shelly ever since. “Homegrown” is the lead single from Zac Brown Band’s new album, Jekyll + Hyde, due out April 28.
