Luke Bryan’s current single “Country and She Knows It” has lived on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart for months, and it’s still growing in popularity. The superstar dropped the track back in late March as a preview for his forthcoming album Signs, his ninth full-length. That set, which drops on September 18, will likely be another big win for Bryan, just as “Country and She Knows It” has become.
This week, the single reaches a new peak position on every roster on which it appears in America, and it helps Bryan break out of a tie with one of the most successful women in country music history.
