Heartland is an American country music band from Huntsville, Alabama. It originally consisted of Jason Albert, Craig Anderson, Todd Anderson, Chuck Crawford, Mike Myerson, and Keith West. Signed to Lofton Creek Records in 2006, the band topped the country charts that year with its debut single "I Loved Her First", also the title track to its debut album. After their next five singles failed to chart within the Top 40, all members except Albert and Crawford left, with former solo artist Chad Austin joining. This lineup disbanded in 2012. In 2023, the band re-established with a lineup consisting of Craig and Todd Anderson, Mike Myerson, and lead vocalist Lance Horton.
