Artist Information
3x GRAMMY-winning duo Dan + Shay continue to etch a permanent mark on country music – and beyond – with the release of the duos highly anticipated fifth studio album, Bigger Houses, co-produced by the band’s Dan Smyers and Scott Hendricks, releasing worldwide September 15th via Warner Music Nashville.
Their brand-new single “Save Me The Trouble,” which Rolling Stone Country succinctly describes as “anthemic,” landed at Country radio having the most adds (134) for the week, marking the duo’s largest career add day ever, in addition to being the highest Country Aircheck debut since June 2022. The first offering from Bigger Houses features an ascending melody that builds into an explosive chorus, “Save Me The Trouble” showcases a sound indicative of the new record’s direction that emphasizes a more live, organic feel.
The long-awaited new music follows the duo’s record shattering, critically acclaimed and multi-award-winning album, Good Things. Also co-produced by Smyers, the highly imaginative LP featured their most recent country radio No. 1’s – the Platinum-certified hits “I Should Probably Go To Bed” and 2x Platinum “Glad You Exist,” which marked the duo’s sixth consecutive No.1 and ninth career No.1, as well as the 5x Multi-Platinum global smash “10,000 Hours” with Justin Bieber. In addition, the Platinum-certified album Good Things was the first country album in the streaming era to achieve RIAA Gold certification at release and is one of the only 12 albums all-genre to be released and go Gold in 2021.
Recently announced as coaches for season 25 of NBC’s Emmy-winning program The Voice, Dan + Shay will join Reba McEntire, John Legend and Chance the Rapper in Spring 2024 as the first-ever coaching duo in the show’s history. The pair will bring a wealth of experience to their team, with a long list of impressive accolades that include becoming the first and only artist to win the GRAMMY Award for Best Country Duo/Group Performance 3x consecutively since the category’s inception (2021 – “10,000 Hours,” 2020 – “Speechless,” 2019 – “Tequila”). The reigning Favorite Country Duo or Group winners also recently claimed their 3rd consecutive win for the category at the American Music Awards, where they had swept their categories in 2020, becoming the first country artist ever to win Collaboration of the Year. In addition, the 2x CMA Awards Duo of the Year and 3x ACM Awards Duo of the Year were named Top Country Duo/Group at the 2022 Billboard Music Awards.
In the ten years since they formed, Dan + Shay have become global superstars, amassing more than 11 billion streams globally, multiple international no. 1 singles and 49 total RIAA Platinum and Gold certifications in the U.S. alone.
