Countrypolitan exclusively premiered the visualizer video to the focus track off the record, "The Ring," noting that the track "rises and falls with a deep-chested swampiness, with the accompanying visualizer underscoring the song’s innate mystery. A string section adorns the song with a sweeping, emotional appeal that brightens the senses."
"The Ring," written by Chad, Dennijo and Andy Sitze, originated during a challenging time but was revived years later with a fresh perspective. Captivated by its beautiful harmonies, the brothers came together to finish the song, infusing it with a sense of mystery and leaving its interpretation open to listeners.
The trio recently performed at this year's CMA Fest on the Hard Rock Stage and their current single, "Home Sweet Home," recently ascended to claim the No. 2 spot on the CDX True Indie Chart. The endearing love song, released on Feb. 14, is celebrated as an "ode to the simple act of unity (American Songwriter)."
"Home Sweet Home" follows the band's previous single, "God Bless the Radio," which offers an anthemic tribute to the influence of radio on their lives. The group also released "Wings of a White Dove" in conjunction with Mental Health Awareness Month during May 2023. After experiencing tragic losses of friends and family, the band was inspired to write “Wings of a White Dove,” to raise awareness for mental illnesses. A portion of the proceeds from the single were donated to the National Alliance on Mental Illness of Tennessee (NAMI) in support of their efforts to advocate for those affected by different mental health conditions.
