Dan + Shay’s mark on Country music – and beyond – continues to grow with the release of their highly anticipated fourth studio album, Good Things. Produced by the duo’s Dan Smyers, the highly imaginative LP is the first Country album in the streaming era to achieve RIAA Gold certification at release and is one of only 12 albums all-genre to be released and go Gold in 2021. Prior to the release, the album was already shattering records beginning with its first single, the four-time Platinum, multi-week No. 1 hit “10,000 Hours” featuring Justin Bieber. With more than 2 billion global streams, “10,000 Hours” became the biggest first-week streaming total in Country music history. Their latest No. 1 “Glad You Exist,” recently earned Platinum certification in the U.S. and Canada and marks their sixth consecutive chart-topper with more than 2 million equivalents to date.
In 2021, they became the first and only artist to win the Grammy Award for “Best Country Duo/Group Performance” three consecutive times since the category’s inception (winning in 2021 for “10,000 Hours,” in 2020 for “Speechless,” and in 2019 for “Tequila”). The reigning “Favorite Country Duo or Group” winners claimed their third consecutive win for the category at the American Music Awards, where they had swept their categories in 2020, becoming the first Country artist ever to win “Collaboration of the Year.” The two-time CMA Awards “Duo of the Year” and three-time ACM Awards “Duo of the Year” recently were named “Top Country Duo/Group” at the Billboard Music Awards. The duo wrapped their explosive and highly anticipated headlining Dan + Shay The (Arena) Tour, which spanned 33 shows and garnered 400,000 total tickets, as well as Kenny Chesney’s Stadium Here and Now Tour last year.
The duo’s Platinum-certified self-titled third album included global hit “Tequila,” multi-format hit “Speechless,” and No. 1 Country song “All To Myself.” In the 10 years since they’ve formed, Dan + Shay have garnered more than 10 billion global career streams to date, 46 total RIAA certifications and achieved nine No. 1 singles at Country radio.
