As the country and the entire world witness the election results unfold, they're pondering 'what happened' with such a seismic shift in American politics and global events. It's exactly what multi-platinum group Heartland sings about in their timely new single--'What Happened?'--available everywhere now. Inspired by conversations with friends, family, and neighbors, Heartland core members Craig Anderson, Todd Anderson, and Mike Myerson felt called to write "What Happened?," which was produced by Craig and Jimmy Ritchie. The video, directed by Justin Mayotte, features footage from Heartland recording "What Happened?" in Nashville and the tough realities we see on the news daily. Showcasing clips from various locations across the United States, the different scenarios in the video reflect the unity and turmoil the country has experienced over the last few years. "We wanted to capture that feeling of wondering how things got so far off course while still believing there's hope if we can come back together. We hope this song inspires people to look beyond what divides us and find a way to stand together again. It's a song for anyone who still believes in a better future and wants to be part of making it happen," shared Todd. Heartland made its return last year with new lead vocalist Lance Horton. Following the release of the ACM and CMA-nominated group's first single in over a decade, "No Tomorrow," Heartland celebrated RIAA platinum, gold and streaming certifications for its No. 1 hit 'I Loved Her First."
