After just reaching #2 on AAA radio, Family of the Year will attempt to cross over to HAC with "Hero," which goes for adds on March 25.

Cool! I hope it does at least decently.

Possibly being pushed again - it's back under Cool New Music due to its use in the film Boyhood.

Well, that took a while!
Great song, one of my favorites from 2013. It should have gone Top 5 on Alt, maybe it can do something on Pop and AC.

A few months later, confirmation of an official push from Nettwerk: it's on this month's RadioInformer.  |

I really like this one, but it's so old. It's interesting to see this is getting a push. Anyways, I hope it does well.

what's the reason for another push? this hasn't done anything since early 2013, it's an odd choice.

Weird that they waited until NOW to play off that, but that explains its resurgence in 2014. Plus, it's a gorgeous song that really needs to blow up. |

Yeah, I heard this on Fresh 102.7 as "Fresh New Music" earlier this week. Funny thing is, I remember they also played it back in 2013, so it's not even true in their own context.

I really don't know whether this will take off. This peaked at Alt and AAA like 2 years ago and unlike Sail, it has low digital sales and less streaming. I really like this song, though.

This is #86 on the iTunes all-genre chart. It's selling very well thanks to the Boyhood exposure, and I'd really like this to finally take off.

Been hearing this a lot now due to its use in "Boyhood." Great to see a song get a second life!

I have no idea why but this is back in the top 50 on Alternative:
195 48 FAMILY OF THE YEAR Hero 184 116 68 1.322
Hopefully this helps in its performance on Hot AC.
