"Heavy Is the Head" is a song recorded by American country music group Zac Brown Band. It was released on March 6, 2015 as the second single from the band's fourth studio album, Jekyll + Hyde, released on April 28, 2015. It features vocals from Chris Cornell, and was released to rock radio, rather than country.[2]
"Heavy Is the Head" debuted at number 50 on the BillboardRock Airplay chart and at number 37 on the Mainstream Rock airplay chart for the week ending March 21, 2015.[3] The song is the band's first entry on either chart. Its number one peak on the Mainstream Rock airplay chart has made Zac Brown Band only the second musical act after Bon Jovi to have a number one single on both that chart and the Country Airplay chart.[4]
