“When
Dierks played us the ‘RISER’ album for the first time, we knew it was
something special,” commented Cindy Mabe, President, Universal Music
Group Nashville. “But having two back-to-back #1 Platinum hits within a
year shows the real power of how Dierks’ music has resonated and how
he’s connected with the fans.”
