The record-breaking smash single “Austin” peaks at No. 19 on Billboard’s Hot 100
Responding to overwhelming fan demand for more music, one of the hottest breakout stars of 2024 and pop-country sensation Dasha delivers her irresistible new song “Didn’t I” via Warner Records.
“‘Didn’t I’ is so nostalgic, there’s something about my past that intrigues me, including the men. In the writer’s room, I was referring to a time months and months ago when I was backsliding into the guy that ‘Austin’ is about. It’s admitting like, ‘oops here I am again, my bad’ but I love how we made it lighthearted and fun,” says Dasha.
The track places Dasha’s dynamic vocals, clever songwriting, and undeniable star power directly in the spotlight. Handclaps drive the momentum as fiddle accents the bright banjo riff. On the track, Dasha can’t seem to let go of an old fling as she confesses in the chorus, “So why am I here with your lips on mine? I could’ve sworn I said, ‘This is over. Didn’t I?’” With its cheeky storytelling and infectious melody, “Didn’t I” has all the makings of another smash from the rapidly rising phenomenon.
Simultaneously, her hit single “Austin (Boots Stop Workin’)” peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs Chart and staked out a spot in the Top 20 of the Billboard Hot 100 peaking at 19. Meanwhile, Dasha scaled the Billboard Emerging Artists Chart to No. 2 with her album What Happens Now? peaking at 117 on the Billboard 200.
In other big news, her extensive global headline tour Dashville, U.S.A. has sold out in most markets with limited ticket availability remaining in Stockholm, Amsterdam, and Salt Lake City. She will perform to capacity crowds everywhere from London and Los Angeles to New York and Nashville.
This year, Dasha notably made her Grand Ole Opry debut, highlighted the set with the smash single “Austin” as well as favorites from What Happens Now? The milestone performance marked a significant moment in Dasha’s burgeoning career as she joins the ranks of artists like Kelsea Ballerini, Luke Combs, Lady A, Blake Shelton, and many more who have graced the iconic stage.
