Follwing a year of incredible milestones, Warner Bros. / Warner Music Nashville’s Dan + Shay achieved one of the greatest honors in music last night (2/10) as they took home their first-ever GRAMMY Award for Best Country Duo / Group Performance. The chart-topping, Platinum-selling pair then performed the winning song “Tequila” live on the telecast, after which it shot up to No. 3 on the all-genre iTunes chart. The global smash has earned nearly 400,000,000 streams, making it the most-streamed country song released in 2018, and has surpassed 3,000,000 in track equivalent sales.
“Thank you to the Recording Academy, everybody who voted for us, all the incredbile artists in our category. That’s the beautiful thing about Nashville and country musc – we are all family,” said Smyers upon accepting the award, adding, “Thank you to our co-writers Jordan Reynolds and Nicolle Galyon, [we] couldn’t do this without a great song.”
Dan + Shay’s brand new single “All To Myself” impacts radio today and is already performing like a Top 30 song as it approaches 50,000,000 on-demand streams and more than 360,000 track equivalents. “All To Myself” comes on the heels of their four-week No. 1 viral sensation “Speechless.” The Platium-certified romantic tune is celebrating 12 consecutive weeks as the most-streamed song in the genre (223,000,000) and previously spent nine weeks atop Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart. The duo will bring their latest hits out on the road for their already sold-out headlining run, “Dan + Shay The Tour,” beginning February 28.
