About Tyler Hubbard
With 23 No. 1 singles, numerous awards, and sold-out tours to his name, Tyler Hubbard has built an extraordinary career as both a songwriter and one half of the multi-platinum duo Florida Georgia Line. As a solo artist, he has continued that momentum, amassing more than 2 billion streams to date.
His Gold-certified debut album, Tyler Hubbard, introduced his first solo No. 1, “5 Foot 9,” which earned 2x Platinum certification from the RIAA. The project also includes “Dancin’ In The Country,” another 2x Platinum hit that topped the charts.
Hubbard’s subsequent releases—“Back Then Right Now” and “Park”—each reached No. 1, making him the only country artist to achieve four consecutive chart-toppers across two separate careers and bringing his career total to 23.
He returns with new music this year beginning with the release of “Land” on May 22, with more to follow. Fans can catch him on the road this summer touring with Dan + Shay.
