Looks like Sam Hunt is teasing something new that should be coming anytime now.

I feel like it will be a Friday release as most do nowadays, I’m really looking forward to this.

I hope this sounds more like the Montevallo album and less like "Body Like A Backroad" and "Downtown's Dead"

Yeah, he's definitely not just posting these out of the kindness of his heart for his fans.
I want an album or bust. I loved BLABR and DD, but 15 months between each single is way too long.

I’ve been told the new single will be out Thursday. Song is called “Kinfolks.” Writers are Sam Hunt, Zachary Crowell, Jerry Flowers and Josh Osborne.

Happy Birthday to me! 😏 I’ve given quite a bit of thought to where Sam Hunt has been the last couple years, and I’m looking forward to hearing a new singing at long-last.

Well, I expect this to be still more country than Zac Brown!

I am really loving the snippet. I think it will be huge... but I also loved "Downtown's Dead". The craving for Sam Hunt music is real, so no matter what I'm just excited new music from him is finally here.

I like the clip a lot. I think this will be pretty big for him, not Body Like a Backroad big but it certainly won't underperform like "Downtown's Dead".

By that snippet, this has the potential of being another huge Sam Hunt song. Can't wait to hear the song in full!

Yeah, this sounds like an absolute smash. The lyrics and production are excellent, and I love the final 30 seconds with the rapid-fire banjo.
Sam's career has been so interesting to me...there's really no one who just came on the scene and was red hot but then just disappeared like Sam more or less did. I mean, can you imagine if Luke Combs had released the 5 smash hits from his debut album and then sort of faded from the public eye and barely released anything else for a 2-3 year period? Because that's basically what Sam did.
I really hope this blows up and we get another album from him (I know he's said early 2020 but I'll believe it when I see it). I mean, Montevallo came out in 2014, and his next album will be 2020 at the earliest. That's just a crazy long gap between a debut album and a sophomore album. "Leave The Night On" was a June 2014 release, "Make You Miss Me" (the album's final single) was a March 2016 release, "Body Like A Back Road" was released in January 2017, and since then all we've gotten is "Downtown's Dead" from May of last year.

Could not agree more with what Jamie said. This is gonna be absolutely massive. It’s the sound that made Sam famous with some extra country elements and topic. Love it! Welcome back Sam!

I'm not going to hate this as much as Body Like A Backroad, but I'm not going to lie, I didn't mind Hunt's hiatus one bit. This actually has a pretty decent melody, but I just loathe Hunt's vocal style so much. I'm sure this is going to be a big hit, I just hope radio starts treating him like an outlier, not a roadmap for what the genre should sound like.

Another song that will certainly be a solid candidate for my top 10 worst country songs of the year. I like the chances of this song making it there.
Seriously, whats the appeal of this guy? I don't get it AT ALL.
House Party remains the only song from him that i kinda sorta didn't mind.

This one sounds like it'd fit on Montevallo. I like this a lot.

This sounds like it could be a hit, but with the relative flop of "Downtown's Dead" and the long gap between his last hit, could he still do it?
As for my personal opinion though, eh. It's catchy, but it's not that great. Good for a Sam Hunt single, I guess.
