“It’s About Time” Lands In Top 10 On Billboard 200 With #8 Album In The Country

Hank Williams Jr.’s Nash Icon Records album ‘It’s About Time’, achieved the highest studio album peak position of his career with a No. 2 album on Billboard’s Top Country Albums and broke the Top 10 on Billboard’s Top 200, landing at the No. 8 spot.

Hank Jr. and his new tourmate Chris Stapleton, who have the No. 2 and No.1 Billboard Top Country Albums, respectively, will co-headline an eight-date tour of amphitheaters across the American south and midwest.

The success of ‘It’s About Time’ surpasses Hank Jr.’s 2012 release of ‘Old School, New Rules,’ which, at the time, was his highest debut, charting at No. 4 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums and No. 12 on Billboard’s Top 200.

I really have some of the best, most loyal fans out there. I’m thankful they went out and spent their hard-earned money,” Hank Jr. said. “We’ve got a whole slate of dates coming up and I can’t wait to rock with them!”

Hank Jr. just wrapped up appearances on “Audience All Access” on AT&T’s Audience Network, “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” “CBS This Morning,” “RFD Rural Evening News” and an inspiring performance with Whoopi Goldberg on “The View.”

The country icon will continue promotional efforts for his 37th album with an exclusive acoustic performance on SiriusXM’s Prime Country, which will include new ‘It’s About Time’ tracks along with Bocephus and Hank Williams classics.
