(North Dakota Monitor) – North Dakota’s Tourism Department is paying $100,000 to partner with country music duo Tigirlily Gold to promote the state.

Krista and Kendra Slaubaugh, sisters from Hazen, recently debuted a new anthem inspired by North Dakota, “Call It Home,” written in partnership with the North Dakota Department of Tourism.

Officials say the goal is to share Tigirlily Gold’s connection with North Dakota on a national stage.

“I’ve watched these women grow up and seeing them use their platform to celebrate and support our state has been really inspiring,” said Sara Otte Coleman, tourism and marketing director for the North Dakota Department of Commerce in a news release. “We’re super excited to work with them.”
