Sister Hazel

The band's second album, ...Somewhere More Familiar, sold approximately 30,000 copies through its initial pressing, prompting Universal Records to sign the band. Universal re-released ...Somewhere More Familiar and, together with the band's second label release Fortress, the two releases feature the band's most successful hit songs: "All For You", "Change Your Mind", and "Champagne High".

In 2003, after the band split from Universal, they released their fourth studio album, Chasing Daylight, on the Sixthman label and toured throughout the year to promote the album. The band's internet presence emerged during this time period, and hardcore fans dubbing themselves "Hazelnuts" studied setlists, shared bootleg concert recordings, and initiated a promotion scheme with the band through their official website. 2003 also saw the simultaneous release of Live*LIVE, a two-disc live album, and A Life in the Day, a live DVD.

In 2004, Sister Hazel released their next studio album Lift. Songs from Lift were re-recorded for 2005's Lift: Acoustic Renditions, an EP of studio acoustic takes on five of the songs, offered exclusively through Apple's iTunes Store. In July of 2005, the Sister Hazel album was re-issued again by Sixthman, in response to claims that the album had become difficult to find in stores.

Sister Hazel are currently promoting their new album, Absolutely, which was released on October 10, 2006. The band also continue to tour and hold their annual fan gathering events, The Rock Boat and The Rock Slope. Absolutely is the band's highest charting album on the Billboard charts following Fortress and it received 4 out of a possible 5 stars from All Music Guide, a tie with Fortress's score.

In summer 2007, the group plans to release a "hybrid" album entitled BAM! It will contain B-sides from the Absolutely recording sessions and more.  See Sister Hazel LIVE!  Purchase your Sister Hazel tickets today!
