Young’s latest offering has tallied over 18 million worldwide streams and will be featured on an upcoming project via BMLG Records. Continuing to garner widespread critical acclaim, “Lady” simultaneously ascends at country radio. Young’s Ticket to L.A. (BMLG Records), debuted atop the Billboard Country Albums chart upon release and features back-to-back No. One hits he co-wrote — “Catch” and “Here Tonight.” His sophomore effort follows a Platinum self-titled debut, which dominated the Top 20 on the Country Albums chart for 37 weeks.
