Preston Brustand Chris Lucas ofLOCASHhave to balance raising their combined five children with releasing No. 1 records — but they’re having fun while doing it.
The country duo spoke to PEOPLE Saturday at the 2019 Bud LightSuper BowlMusic Fest in Atlanta about the most recent addition to the LOCASH family: Brust’s second child, sonLegend Wilde, who was born in August.
“It’s my second, [Chris has] three — man, we got a basketball team,” Brust joked to PEOPLE. “Starting five, right there.”
Lucas says it’s harder to leave the house with more children. “It’s emotional leaving now,” he told PEOPLE. “It’sharder to leave but I’lltell you what, it’s the most amazing thing when you come home and you hear the word ‘Daddy.’ ”

“It’s better than No. 1 records,” Brust chimed in. “We love the success of the music industry and everything we strive for, but the family, it’s just everything.”
Lucas has three children with wife Kaitlyn: daughtersViolet Reid, 17 months, andRemi McKenna, 3 next month, plus 8-year-old son Caden.
Lucas shared that his youngest, Violet, is startingto repeat some not-so-nice words. “The other day, I’m throwing a football to my kid and I said a bad word and she goes right up to him, points at him and says the bad word because he missed the football. So funny. It shocked me, though.”
“My little girldropped an F-bomb,” Brust added in solidarity. “I was like, ‘First of all, you don’t know what “fudge” means and we’re just going to change all the wording in this house.’ So now we’re spelling everything out.”

Lucas added another parenting tip: “I would say, as parents, please put parental guidance on your iPads,” he told PEOPLE. “[Caden] is very attracted toMegan Fox… I looked in his search history and it got a little crazy.”
Lucas added jokingly, “He doesn’t know what he’s looking at but I’m like, ‘Aww man.’ It’s just like, ‘Oh I’m going to look upMegan Fox inTransformersand then, ‘Oh, here’s Megan Fox in the tub naked.’ ”
The country music pair wrapped up their Pepsi Tailgate Tour in early December. As they worked on new music, LOCASHexclusively announced the name oftheir upcoming album with PEOPLE in December. The new LP,Brothers, is scheduled to release on March 29.
“The songs on this, we are so proud of,” Lucas told PEOPLE in December. “They’re our babies, but in a moment in ourlives as young dadswith four hits right now, it’s an amazing feeling, and some of the songs on this album mean so much to us — we just can’t wait for the world to hear it.”
