New York, NY (Top40 Charts) The Cactus Blossoms' new album Easy Way has debuted at #1 on the CIMS Indie Retail chart. The album, released March 1 on the band's own Walkie Talkie Records, also scored the Minneapolis brother duo a Top 10 spot on the Billboard Heatseekers chart, opening at #9 this week. The news follows a major gain at Americana radio, where Easy Way currently holds the #11 spot after jumping over 30 spots in less than two weeks.

Easy Way earned raves everywhere from the New York Times ("retro, but the words are up to the minute"), Rolling Stone ("rock-solid, freak of genetics harmonies"), American Songwriter and beyond, with their hometown Minneapolis Star-Tribune saying: "If you don't visibly swoon at least two dozen times listening to this album, you need to get out and look up at the stars more."
The band played Willie Nelson's Luck Reunion last night and wrap up their busy week at SXSW later this evening, with a full headline tour kicking off later this month. Additionally, the band will play Nashville's legendary Ryman Auditorium, opening for
Jenny Lewis on March 31. More info here, full dates below: https://www.thecactusblossoms.com/tour/
