Parker McCollum Celebrates 2X Multi-Platinum
and Gold RIAA Certifications
Universal Music Group Nashville recording artist Parker McCollum was surprised with two RIAA plaques Saturday night ahead of his sold-out show at Ascend Amphitheater. The plaques were presented to him by RIAA’s Jackie Jones, his label team at UMG Nashville, and Red Light Management. The two plaques celebrate McCollum’s No.1 hits “Pretty Heart,” which has been certified 2x multi-Platinum, and “To Be Loved By You,” which has been certified Gold. These RIAA plaques for McCollum are for two songs off his major label debut Gold Chain Cowboy which was released last summer.
“What can I even say? I have a double Platinum hit and a Gold hit to start my career at the best record label in music,” said McCollum. “Universal Music Group Nashville/ MCA Nashville has been incredibly patient with me and allowed me to craft these songs the same way I always have. I am forever grateful for this opportunity to swing it in the big leagues of country music. We are just getting started.”
McCollum will make his debut appearance at this year’s CMA Fest in Nashville. He will be taking to the Nissan stage on Sunday, June 12 at 7:00pm. He will also make his first appearance on the iconic music-television series “ACL Live” on July 26.
