Brickell: What is the name of your band again?
Bart: It is "Mercy Me." Because when I told my Memaw that we were starting a band, she was like "Mercy me, get a real job!" And I was like: "Oh, Memaw." And the guys were like "Did she really say that?" and I was like "Yeah, we have to name the band mercy me." So we called it.
