The interview follows the release of their brand new single Champagne Butterflies.
Conor explained that as a band, they like to evolve and mix things up every now and then.
He used tour lighting and colour scheme changes as an example.
With their music, they like to, "progress it but not too much that people don't recognise," them.
Conor said Champagne Butterflies is about, "the kind of celebratory butterflies that you feel when you fall in love."
"And all those kind of amazing feelings and emotions that you go through when you're starting to really fall for someone."

David admitted, "it's sad," to release new music without an audience to play it to.
The lads haven't performed in a long time due to the global pandemic.
"Fingers crossed everything comes back sooner than later."

He added that they've actually been quite lucky with this song because they've had it for a while now.
David revealed, "The song was written [in 2019], we finished it in January."
"But the end of [2019], we were doing a tour so we actually played this song on the tour..."

"I'm looking forward to going back and playing it again and we know that our fans loved that song in particular."
He recalled how some fans made butterflies out of paper and stuck them to their backs.
