Chris Young To Release Deluxe Edition Of ‘I Didn’t Come Here To Leave’

Chris Young is releasing an expanded edition of his latest album, I Didn’t Come Here To Leave (Deluxe), on June 12 via Black River Entertainment.

Young recently released the first track from the deluxe version of the album, “One Of Us,” a duet with rising star Shaylen, which juxtaposes two different sides of heartbreak. The expanded collection was co-produced by Young and Andy Sheridan, and also features songs like “Wedding Band,” a one-that-got-away story from a unique perspective, and “If You’re Lucky,” a playful yet haunting duet with Breland about the allure of an irresistible but unpredictable woman.

The release of I Didn’t Come Here To Leave (Deluxe) drops as the title track goes to country radio. The single is already generating a buzz ahead of the June 15 add date, and has been streamed more than 24 million times.

Young is also gearing up for the grand opening of his Midtown Nashville sports bar, aptly named “Famous Friends” after his chart-topping hit.
