BLAKE SHELTON RISES TO THE TOP WITH
“ALL ABOUT TONIGHT” AT NO. 1
ON THE COUNTRY CHARTS
“All About Tonight” is the title track off Shelton’s
new album and his seventh No. 1 single
Nashville, TN – Right on the heels of the release of his latest album, Academy of Country Music and CMT Award winner, Blake Shelton hits No. 1 on the Billboard and Country Aircheck (Mediabase) charts with his single, “All About Tonight.” For one of the "most versatile of contempoary country singers" (The New York Times), this hit marks his second No. 1 of the year - “Hillbilly Bone” peaked at No. 1 on March 15 - and seventh of his career. Shelton has not had a single peak outside the Top Ten since 2007.
“I just want to thank my fans, friends and country radio for making this single a number one for me,” says Blake. “This wouldn’t have been possible without Bob Reeves and the Warner Music Nashville promo staff. I have never had two No.1's within five months of each other. Bob and his team continue to show us how committed and passionate they are about my music -- for that, I am truly grateful. I said this back in March, and I'll say it again, this is the best year of my career. Thank you.”
Shelton’s latest SIX PAK is produced by Scott Hendricks and includes six new tracks. Shelton's first SIX PAK album, "Hillbilly Bone," was released earlier this year and debuted at No. 3 on Billboard's Top 200 chart and No. 2 on the Top Country Albums Chart. It also featured the No. 1 title track with longtime friend Trace Adkins. Shelton hits include his back-to-back multi-week No. 1 singles, "She Wouldn't Be Gone" and "Home," his six-week #1 debut single, "Austin," and two additional multi-week No. 1 singles with "The Baby" and "Some Beach."
