Hicks has reached this milestone prior to the release of an official single. The first single, "Just to Feel That Way," goes to radio this week.

Hicks will also kick off his first headlining tour on Wednesday, Feb. 21 in Jacksonville, Fla. at the Florida Theater, with dates currently scheduled to run through April 27 in Kansas City, Mo. This is the first time fans will be able to see him perform songs from the new album in a live venue.
