It follows a string of No. 1 hits for Swindell including “Let Me See Ya Girl,” “Hope You Get Lonely Tonight,” “Ain’t Worth The Whiskey” and “Chillin’ It.”

Over the past year, Swindell’s achievements include ACM New Artist of the Year Award and CMA Triple Play recipient for earning (at least) three No. 1 songs in a 12-month period. For songwriting, he is a four-time 2015 BMI Award winner for writing No. 1 hits for Thomas Rhett, Florida Georgia Line, and Luke Bryan.
