Sister Hazel - Topic

Originating from Gainesville, FL, Sister Hazel is comprised of five gifted,

seasoned musicians whose well-spring of natural talent has been called "one of

the Top 100 Most Influential Independent Performers of the last 15 years" by

Performing Songwriter Magazine. "All for You" topped the adult alternative

charts during the summer of 1997 and the success propelled their album to

platinum status.

In their first showing on the country music charts, they made a strong debut with

“Lighter In The Dark” at #4 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart and #6 on

Billboard’s Independent Albums chart. The band landed on Billboard’s Top

Country Albums Chart again in 2016 with a CD/DVD “Unplugged From Daryl's

House Club” at #75. Their most recent release “Water” a six-track EP is Volume I

of a collectible compilation series titled, “Elements,” and includes a bonus

seventh track that will continue throughout the series. Water debuted at #4 on

Billboard’s Country Albums chart and #2 on Billboard’s Independent Albums

chart.

Living up to their fan-centered reputation, the band hosts annual events like

“Hazelnut Hang,” that focuses on fan involvement and was a pioneer in themed

cruise experiences by co-founding “The Rock Boat,” a cruise featuring nonstop

opportunities for fan/artist interaction. Sister Hazel has been equally attentive to

connecting with their audience through social media. They have since made their

Grand Ole Opry debut and shared the stages with country music superstars at

The ​CMA Festival, Tortuga Music Festival, among others. In addition to the

events and touring, the band also gives back with “Lyrics For Life.” Founded by

singer Ken Block and the Band, the charity unites musicians and celebrities for

concerts and auctions to benefit cancer research and patient-care charities.
