Zac Brown Says “Thanks”

By Stephen Gibbons • September 1, 2009

When the Zac Brown Band released The Foundation on November 18, 2008 on the Atlantic /Home Grown/Big Picture Label there was the usual hopes and dreams of the album being a success, seeing that their first single release of “Chicken Fried” on June 28, 2008 debut at #59 and less than 6 months was #1 This song also made the Zac Brown Band the first country music group to reach Number One with a debut single since Heartland’s 2006 Number One hit “I Loved Her First”.On the chart week of October 4, 2008, the Zac Brown Band version entered the Billboard Hot 100 at #60, peaking at #20 on that chart. And now with great success of “Chicken Fried” and now “Toes”, the band would like to thank all their fans,

“We want to thank our fans for believing in us, coming to our shows and supporting our music by buying ‘The Foundation.’ We couldn’t have done all this without you! To show our appreciation, our ‘Breaking Southern Ground’ tour will be pulling out ALL the stops this fall – we’ll have opportunities for fans to win passes to join us for a pre-show feast with our signature dishes and we’ll be bringing along the Southern Ground Records Artists to join the party. Look forward to seeing you there.”
