By: Macon Prickett Feb. 05, 2018
Platinum selling RCA Records artist Chris Young is waking up this morning celebrating his 10th chart-topping single as "Losing Sleep" takes the top spot on both the Billboard and Mediabase country radio charts this week. The song is Chris' 10th No. 1 as an artist - his fourth consecutive single to peak at No.1 - and his eighth as a songwriter, including "Sober Saturday Night," "Think Of You," "I'm Comin' Over," "You," "Tomorrow," "Voices," and "Gettin' You Home."
"I'm at a loss for words," said Chris. "This last year has brought so many milestones and now to be celebrating my 10th #1 single at country radio is beyond amazing. Thank you to everyone who has spun and streamed 'Losing Sleep' and come out to see the tour and I can't wait to see everyone on the road soon!"
"Losing Sleep," the title track to his recently released seventh album, which opened at #1 on Billboard's Top Country Albums Chart in November, is also the namesake for his sold-out arena headlining tour. For the third straight weekend in a row, Chris brought his "Losing Sleep 2018 World Tour" to capacity crowds in Boston, MA, Bangor, ME and Hartford, CT after playing sold-out shows in Chicago, Cincinnati, Grand Rapids, Indianapolis, Kansas City and St. Louis in January. The tour, including special guests Kane Brown and LANCO, resumes this weekend with stops in Pittsburgh, PA (2/8), Washington, D.C. (2/9) and Huntington, WV (2/10).Recently inducted as the newest member of the iconic Grand Ole Opry, Chris Young achieved another milestone in 2017 with the release of Losing Sleep, his second consecutive studio album to debut at No. 1 on Billboard's Top Country Albums Chart. At the age of 32 the RCA Records artist has ten No. 1 singles and seven albums to his credit, including the Platinum-certified Neon and 2015's Gold-certified I'm Comin' Over, which earned multiple ACM, BBMA, CMA, CMT, Grammy and RDMA nominations and scored three consecutive chart-topping singles. A prolific creator, Losing Sleep is Chris's third project in less than two years and the title track is his eighth No. 1 as a songwriter.
Named "one of his era's finest traditionalists" by the Associated Press, Chris has quickly become an international ambassador for country music, performing to packed houses around the world including the sold-out C2C Festival in the UK. With a hit-packed set that highlights his ten chart-toppers - including back-to-back No. 1s "Losing Sleep," "Sober Saturday Night," "Think Of You," and "I'm Comin' Over" - and seventeen Gold/Platinum certified projects, he's headlining the Chris Young Losing Sleep 2018 World Tour, with more than 30 arena and amphitheater dates through May.Photo credit: Jeff Johnson
