It seems it was highly pruned when planted, and this probably stunted the growth. Seems to be putting on good shoots this year, and should increase.
Depending on the species it might want to sucker at the base, and be more shrub like. It is hard to tell the species apart, and even in native nurseries they are not sure.
Might be Amelanchier × grandiflora 'Autumn Brilliance', which is cultivated for autumn color and is a hybrid so non viable seeds (probably).
