The Magnolia Janes just released their new album "The Light Years", and to celebrate we asked Ashley Riley and Sarah Bonsignor to tell us about the song "Five More Minutes". Here is the story:
Sarah Bonsignore: "'Five More Minutes' is a special song because it's the first one that we wrote together for our duo. We had been writing and harmonizing for a few years but officially decided to form our group during AmericanaFest that happens in Nashville.
