Second solo single available now
EMI Records Nashville recording artist Tyler Hubbard continues the release of new music as he unveils his latest track “35’s” from his highly anticipated solo project. The new song follows his debut radio single, “5 Foot 9,” which is currently Top 30 and climbing the country radio airplay charts.
Written by Hubbard with Jordan Schmidt and Michael Tyler, “35’s” is the reminder we all need to take time to step away from the constant grind of our often fast-paced lives and soak in the special moments and the good times.
“Sonically this song really gets me going and makes me wanna drive 100 miles an hour, but lyrically, it’s about living a life at a slower pace,” says Hubbard. “Sometimes it’s hard to break away from everything I’m trying to accomplish and really slow down and appreciate the moments that are right in front of me, and this song is a good reminder.”
Hubbard’s debut solo single, “5 Foot 9,” has over 24 million global streams. The song quickly moved inside the Top 50 on the streaming chart in its first four weeks of release and is solidly inside the Top 30 at radio. “5 Foot 9” currently sits on the Spotify Top 200 and is Top 10 on the Spotify Country Global chart. The single has landed on TikTok’s Top 5 US sounds with almost 110K creations to date and placed No. 10 on the Shazam Top Country Chart.
Hubbard teamed with some of Nashville’s most prominent hitmakers including Ross Copperman, Zach Kale, Rhett Akins, Rodney Clawson, Jon Nite, Jesse Frasure, Ashley Gorley, Ben Johnson, Keith Urban, Thomas Rhett and more for his solo debut project. The project will show Hubbard’s many musical sides and influences from urban to contemporary Christian with his country roots remaining in the forefront.
For the past decade, country fans have gotten to know Tyler Hubbard as the lead singer of the multi-platinum-selling, record-breaking duo Florida Georgia Line. Hubbard has written seven No. 1 hits for FGL, singing lead vocal on all 19, plus, he has written cuts for artists across multiple genres including Jason Aldean, Jimmie Allen, Kane Brown, Little Big Town, Thomas Rhett, Chris Tomlin, Nelly and Bebe Rexha.
Last year, Hubbard and FGL partner Brian Kelley initially announced they would be releasing solo projects as they continued to release and perform as the chart-topping genre-bending duo. Kelley released his solo debut album, Sunshine State of Mind, with Warner Music Nashville/Nashville South Records, Inc while Hubbard continue to release music with Tim McGraw and Lathan Warlick.
Last summer, the duo canceled their 2021 I Love My Country Tour due to COVID concerns. Earlier this year, they confirmed that they’re “taking a break” following a run of shows that ends August 26th with a festival appearance in Canada.
