Tim McGraw celebrates 47th No 1 with surprise EP

Poet’s Resume is available now

Just in time for the holiday season – and perfect for listening to while cooking a Thanksgiving meal – three-time Grammy Award-winning superstar Tim McGraw is surprising fans with new music, with the release of a six-song EP titled Poet’s Resumé – available now on Big Machine Records. The lyric video for the EP’s focus track “Runnin’ Outta Love” is available now.

In the spirit of being thankful, Poet’s Resumé is McGraw’s way of saying thank you to his fans for an incredible year, which included the release of his 17th studio album Standing Room Only in August, earning career honors such as the ACM Icon Award & the Nashville Songwriters Association International’s President’s Keystone Award, and notching his 47th No. 1 this week with his single “Standing Room Only.”

“In the spirit of being thankful, I’m so grateful for all of you and the ways you have supported me, my family, and my music thru the years” McGraw shares on social media. “Here’s a little surprise drop of a few songs you’ve never heard. Enjoy!”

With this most recent No. 1, McGraw has now amassed 69 Top 10 radio hits throughout his career. He extends his Mediabase record for the most weeks at No. 1 with all titles to 74 weeks. In the process, he set the record for the longest span from first to latest at 29 years and six months, surpassing George Strait.

Poet’s Resumé was produced by McGraw and his longtime producing partner Byron Gallimore, and features songs written by some of McGraw’s favorite songwriters.

Long proven as a titan of touring across a career spanning more than three decades, McGraw and fans alike have much to look forward to in 2024 with the March 14th launch of the Standing Room Only Tour. Featuring a huge production, his biggest hits, and songs from his recently released 17th studio album, the tour promises the most fun and memories of a lifetime.
