Moore donated No 1 plaques to police, fire and other local heroes involved in the video’s production
Justin Moore’s No. 1 single, “The Ones That Didn’t Make It Back Home,” has touched the hearts of millions with the music video nearing 19 million views on YouTube alone. The Arkansas native, who grew up with a strong sense of community and gratitude, was recently able to thank those who made the powerful music video possible in the same city where they serve and the bulk of scenes were filmed.
On July 24th, in front of 10,000 fans at Night in the Country Festival in Yerington, NV, Moore’s video director and management team member, Cody Villalobos, presented special plaques commemorating RIAA Gold certification and No. 1 radio chart success to the Yerington Police Department, the Yerington/Mason Valley Fire Protection District and Yerington Theater for the Arts, along with the Boys and Girls Clubs of Mason Valley on behalf of Moore. These local heroes were involved in the production and continue to serve their neighbors.
In May, Moore was surprised himself with a Pandora Billionaire Plaque, commemorating three billion streams on the platform. SiriusXM hosts Buzz Brainard and Ania Hammer, along with Moore’s wife Kate, presented the award on Music Row Happy Hour on SiriusXM’s The Highway.
Coming up, Moore is set to take the stage on Sunday (August 8th) in Nashville, TN, during the inaugural Music City Grand Prix, where he’s sure to perform his current single “We Didn’t Have Much,” released via the Valory Music Co., which entered Top 5 at country radio this week. The song appears on the eight track collection, Straight Outta The Country.
