It was released on November 18, 2008.〔(Billboard.com - Zac Brown Band Signs With Atlantic )〕 Originally slated for release on the Home Grown label and Big Picture Records, the album is distributed by Atlantic Nashville in association with those two labels.

One year later, The Lost Trailers released this song as a single on BNA Records, but the label withdrew the single after Brown changed his mind about licensing the song.

Four further singles were released from the album — "Whatever It Is," "Toes," "Highway 20 Ride" and "Free" — the latter three of which were also Number One hits.
