SAM HUNT’S “BODY LIKE A BACK ROAD” SETS RECORD WITH OVER 9.2M WEEKLY STREAMS

Hunt Adds Sept. 14 Madison Square Garden Stop to Summer Tour; On Sale March 10

MCA Nashville’s Multi-Platinum-selling country star Sam Hunt released new song “Body Like A Back Road” to overwhelming fanfare. The song shot to No. 1 on the digital sales and streaming chart and is already climbing country radio’s Top 15 in only four weeks. “Body Like A Back Road” has led the Billboard Hot Country chart for four weeks in a row and it continues to break its own record notching over 9.2 million streams per week across all platforms – the most of any other country song ever.

Written by Hunt, Zach Crowell, Shane McAnally and Josh Osborne, Rolling Stone calls the tune “a laid back, breezy track that’s pure summer.” Perfectly timed as Hunt’s upcoming 15 In A 30 Tour with special guests Maren Morris, Chris Janson and Ryan Follese is one of summer’s most-anticipated tours, and Live Nation just announced an added show at “the world’s most famous arena,” Madison Square Garden in New York City on Sept. 14. Tickets go on sale Friday, March 10 at 10 a.m. ET. The tour hits over 30 markets including Toronto, Chicago and Atlanta with multiple nights in Los Angeles, Denver and Nashville.
