The band previously topped the Adult Alternative Airplay tally with “Virginia (Wind in the Night)” (2022), “All We Ever Knew” (2016), “Missed Connection” (2019) and “Lost in My Mind,” its first entry on the ranking (2011). The act, which formed in Seattle in 2009, has tallied 11 top 10s.

“Arrow” shoots to No. 1 in its seventh week on Adult Alternative Airplay, tying for the group’s quickest coronation. It matches the sprints of “Virginia” and “All We Ever Knew.”

Concurrently, “Arrow” bullets at No. 17, after reaching No. 16, on the Alternative Airplay list. It’s the band’s top-charting hit since “Honeybee,” which led for a week in 2020.

On the all-rock-format, audience-based Rock & Alternative Airplay chart, “Arrow” lifts three spots to No. 16 for a new high with 2.1 million audience impressions, up 25% week-over-week, in the week ending Dec. 12, according to Luminate. The rank is likewise the band’s best since “Honeybee,” which rose to No. 3.

“Arrow” is the lead single from The Head and the Heart’s as-yet-untitled sixth studio album, which does not yet have an announced release date. Its predecessor, Every Shade of Blue, reached No. 21 on the Americana/Folk Albums chart in May 2022 and has earned 61,000 equivalent album units to date.

All Billboard charts dated Dec. 21 will update on Billboard.com Tuesday, Dec. 17.
