The first promotional single from Hedley’s newest album, Hello, is called Can’t Slow Down. It’s an appropriate title considering Hello has become the band’s first number one album, topping both radio and sales charts.

According to front man Jacob Hoggard, “Can’t Slow Down is the most personal, honest look at the realities of life in the fast lane. It’s not easy being that honest, but even harder to stop.” In the above video, Hoggard explains exactly how the band came to create the newly minted hit.
