They continued to make waves in the music industry in 2020 with the single "Never Give Up on You," which was chosen as the official club anthem of the Major League Soccer team Nashville SC.

The release of their fourth album, "Revival," in June 2022, often referred to as their "pandemic record," demonstrated the band's resilience and adaptability in uncertain times. Their fifth studio album, "The Process," released in May 2024, further solidified their position in the music industry, featuring contributions from artists Ruston Kelly and K.Flay.
