Nashville, TN (June 25, 2013) – Jake Owen
is all over Country radio this week with his fastest rising single to
date “Anywhere With You” topping both the Mediabase Country Chart and
Billboard Country Chart. The catchy song has impressively logged the
biggest weekly audience sum with 43.8 million impressions since the
Billboard Country Airplay Chart switched to audience-based rankings in
2005. Marking his fourth consecutive #1 from the chart-topping BAREFOOT BLUE JEAN NIGHT
album, “Anywhere With You” has been certified GOLD by the RIAA for
selling over 500,000 copies. The RCA Nashville project has delivered
back-to-back #1’s with multi-week hits – the DOUBLE PLATINUM “Barefoot
Blue Jean Night” and PLATINUM “Alone With You” – along with the
GOLD-certified hit “The One That Got Away” that he co-wrote.
“I’m incredibly amazed at what the
Barefoot album has done,” shares Jake Owen. “To have four #1’s in a row …
I’m so thankful to country radio and my fans. This wouldn’t have
happened without you and I can’t wait to share new music with everyone!”

is, WSMV Channel 4 and Jammit Inc. are inviting fans to submit their
