It reached No. 47 on the Top Country Albums chart and No. 105 on the Billboard 200 albums chart. The songs, "Stars on the Water" and "Victim or a Fool" were released as singles. "Stars on the Water" reached No. 30 on the Hot Country Songs chart, his highest-charting song up to that point. It peaked at No. 21 on the Canadian country charts.
