Andeans Big 30 interview was so unique and interesting to be at, as I knew he is a busy guy but I didn’t quite realise how busy he gets.

Aldean spoke a lot about his love for collecting buses, I can’t remember which organisation it is but when he helps them out rather then pay him money they buy him a bus to add to his collection.

Andean’s interview was meant to be a duo, however Ned was unable to make it, now to be honest with you I really thought that this would put Aldean off a bit but thankfully he was totally fine.

I figured out quite quickly that in my opinion Aldean speaks very fast however I went with the flow as you do, and then I realised to get Aldean more comfortable I would get him to play the keyboard, which worked wonders he became more relaxed and and in time his speech wasn’t as fast.

Then that was it he played the keyboard on and off the whole way through it was great.

He spoke a lot about what Heart n Soul meant to him and the fact that he really liked his old music teacher, who’s name I can’t remember unfortunately.

He also spoke about church and wanting to be able to play keyboard in the church choir. He also spoke about his parents and the influence they have on him.

For you guys to find out more about Aldean interview please feel free to visit the London Metropolitan Archives or our Big 30 website in July (https://www.thebig30.com/).

All that’s left for me to say is thank you Aldean for being part of the #Big30Archive process
