Eli Young Band Adding Napping Bus To Tour

Right now, members of the Eli Young Band are probably on a bus traveling somewhere from show to show. But what bus? That's the question now that a couple of the guys in the band are to bring along their most precious arts - babies.



Lead singer Mike Eli said that having children on the road is getting better and better. Kacey Eli and his wife have a daughter, Olivia Kline, who turns 2 this summer, when the band is playing the Yamhill County Fairgrounds in McMinnville, Oregon and Jon Jones and his wife Sarah will have a son, Hudson Lennon, who will be 2 later this year.

"They're getting a little older so it will be a bit easier them because their schedules could be a little easier, “Eli explained in a radio interview. " Especially since our schedule on the road is completely opposite to the kiddos and so, fortunately, we have two different buses. "

Here's how to Eli bus wise, Jones and bandmates James Young and Chris Thompson breakdown things.

"We have four in one that we can use for the kiddos to be able to take naps and stuff," Eli said. “But that's kind of a new thing, juggling everything. So I hope you will be able to leave in the summer for that trip. "

The Eli Young Band will be on tour this summer in the days of Jake Owen tour de Oro.

"We've known Jake for a long time and really had a great time getting to know him, so it will be really fun to be in an entire trip with him," Eli said.

The Eli Young Band video for "Drunk Last Night" is nominated for video of the year group in 2014 CMT Music Awards will be broadcast live Wednesday ( June 4 ) at 8 pm ET .
