Russell Dickerson Notches Fifth No. 1 With ‘God Gave Me A Girl’

November 7, 2023/by Lorie Hollabaugh

Russell Dickerson has notched his fifth No. 1 with “God Gave Me A Girl,” which hit the top spot on the Country Aircheck/Mediabase chart this week.

“God Gave Me A Girl” tells the story of a man who reflects on how God led him to the love of his life after a string of heartbreaks. Produced by Dickerson and Zach Crowell and penned by Dickerson, Crowell, Ashley Gorley and Chase McGill, the song draws inspiration from Dickerson’s wife, Kailey, and his own journey to finding love.

“It’s no secret this is a special song for me and to have it reach No. 1 is really such an honor,” says Dickerson. “The fact that so many people love and can relate to this song warms my heart. Thank you to country radio and the RDFam for all their support!”

Dickerson will wrap his “Big Wheels & Backroads Tour” with stops in St. Petersburg (Nov. 10) and Estero, Florida (Nov. 11). Dickerson recently announced an extension of the tour, which will kick off on Feb. 22 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Dickerson also recently dropped a deluxe version of his self-titled album, Russell Dickerson: The Afterparty Deluxe, featuring 10 additional tracks, including five unplugged acoustic versions, four live fan favorites and a new song featuring Needtobreathe, “Red Dirt Church.”
