Looks like these guys are trying again to break the Hot AC/Triple A charts with this new tune, the first single from their album Release, which is out August 18. It goes for Triple A adds on July 20.
It's not a bad song, but I'm not sure if this will even crack the top 40 on either chart. I think "Mandolin Moon" just dented the top 30, but who knows.

Don't underestimate the wide cult following of this band. College kids all around love them and they are huge in the Southeast.

Sister Hazel is currently running a promotion for their album, in which they give out phone numbers and fans can call and talk to band members.
I talked to the lead singer. Ken is a swell guy. Very few bands maintain a healthy relationship with their fans. I guess when your popularity starts to decline, you start to appreciate each one.
I hope this does well. They always could make a comeback on Hot AC like Collective Soul.

Yeah I could see them on Country radio, but I don't want them to head that direction like Darius Rucker did.

I think they are doing just fine as it is.
Release just debuted on the Billboard 200 at #37, the best debut of their career.
