EMI Nashville recording artist Gary Allan shipped a new single, “Do You Wish It Was Me?” to country radio on Monday (May 23). Its digital on-sale date will be June 10 and it will go for adds on June 13.
Allan co-wrote the song with Jonathan Singleton and Andrew Dorff. Allan co-produced the song with Greg Droman and recorded it with his touring band.
Last week, Allan played the song for the label team and accepted a gold plaque for his prior album, 2013’s Set You Free. In addition, Allan was surprised when UMG Nashville President & CEO Mike Dungan presented him with a plaque spanning his career accomplishments. During his 20 years signed to the label, Allan has achieved over 7 million album sales, 8 million track sales, 250 million streams, 5 No. 1 singles and 14 Top 10 hits.
“Looking at this plaque and thinking back on the past twenty years makes me grateful for the great team of people I have around me. There have been people who have come and gone from Universal, but this is still my home and they are all my label family,” said Allan. “I am excited about getting ‘Do You Wish It Was Me?’ out to radio, playing it for the fans and continuing to work with Mike, Cindy and the entire EMI/UMG Nashville staff.”
