For solo artist Jessie Baylin and Kings of Leon drummer Nathan Followill, this is an especially busy period for the married couple. In May, the Grammy Award-winning Kings of Leon released their latest album “Can We Please Have Fun.” And Baylin’s May 31 re-release of her critically acclaimed 2018 album “Strawberry Wind” – “Strawberry Wind (Deluxe Edition)” – also includes new tracks. But with two young children, the musicians are mindful of making sure that one of them is at home with the kids. “As of right now, I am not going to tour while the Kings are out,” Baylin said. “That could change, but I think right now the balance of having one of us home doing the routine with the kids is best.” Baylin and Followill did this interview from their Nashville home. You may follow them on Instagram (@jezziebaylin and @thenathanfollowill) and X (@doctorfollowill). This interview has been edited for clarity and length.
