Dream Big is Ryan Shupe & The RubberBand's third album, independently released in 2003 under the title Hey Hey Hey. It featured four tracks that had debuted on the band's first two albums but re-recorded as well as eight brand new songs. A similar tracklisting became available as the band's major label debut under the title "Dream Big" when the band signed a record deal with Capitol Nashville. Dream Big is missing the track "She's Bad For Me" and does not contain the hidden track "Corn Dogs" from Hey Hey Hey. "Corn Dogs" has since been officially released as the closing track on the band's album Last Man Standing.

The song "Dream Big", the band's only chart single, was also featured in advertisements for the NBC reality show Three Wishes, which was hosted by Amy Grant.[3]
