“Country
radio has given me an amazing career already,” said McGraw. “I’m 20
years into it, so to be having my highest chart debut ever is such a
cool thing. I can’t thank everyone in radio enough for the support
they’ve shown me over the years and especially now as I’m starting a new
chapter with a new label. It means more to me than ever…the best is
really yet to come!”
