About The One You Know

"The One You Know" is a song by the American rock band Alice in Chains, and the first single from the band's sixth studio album, Rainier Fog, released on August 24, 2018. The single was released via streaming on May 3, 2018, accompanied by an official music video. "The One You Know" spent 17 weeks on Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart and peaked at No. 9.

During Alice in Chains' concert at the House of Blues in Boston on April 28, 2018, guitarist/vocalist Jerry Cantrell announced that a new song would be coming out "pretty soon". On April 30, 2018, Alice in Chains posted a cryptic 15-second teaser video with no sound on their social media pages. Another 16-second clip was shared on May 1, and an 18-second clip with the caption "05.04.18 #AIC" was shared on May 2. The single was initially released via streaming on the Australian Spotify on May 3, 2018. Soon after, Alice in Chains posted on their social media a preview of the new music with a 19-second teaser of the music video and also announced the title of the single, "The One You Know", scheduled to be released on May 4, 2018 at 6am PST / 9am EST. However, both the single and the music video ended up being released earlier than announced. Later that day (May 3) at around 11pm PST, the single was available for streaming and download worldwide via Spotify, iTunes, Amazon Music, Apple Music and Google Play.
