fire and I still can’t tell/Am I halfway to heaven or hell?” “Need a Favor” was released in December 2022 and within just a few months was sent to country radio, where it eventually reached Number One on the US Country Airplay chart via Billboard . It also appeared on Whitsitt Chapel, released in June 2023. Trending FireHouse
