Sam Hunt scores his sixth chart-topping smash with “Kinfolks” this week. The tune, which he co-wrote with Zach Crowell, Jerry Flowers and Josh Osborne, hit No. 1 on both the Country Aircheck and Billboard country charts.

“When I think of ‘kinfolks,’ when I think of that phrase, I think of my family, but also I think about just, my people back home – even beyond my family, just buddies and people who’ve been a part of my story from the beginning,” says Sam. “I’ve made a lot of new friends and met a lot of new people who are important to me as I’ve moved away from my hometown, but that core group is still that core group and always will be. It’s like that old saying, ‘you can’t make new old friends’ or whatever.”

The smash hit follows his previous chart-toppers “Leave the Night On,” “Take Your Time,” “House Party,” “Make You Miss Me” and “Body Like a Back Road.”

Sam is set to release his new album, Southside, April 3rd. The collection features “Kinfolks,” “Sinning With You” and “Hard to Forget,” as well as “Body Like a Back Road” and “Downtown’s Dead.”
