Brett Young Marks 10 Years of Debut Album with Platinum Edition

Brett Young marked the 10-year anniversary of his self-titled debut album with the release of BRETT YOUNG (Platinum Edition) via Blue Highway Records. The original 12-track project, now certified 2X Platinum by the RIAA, included hits such as IN CASE YOU DIDN'T KNOW, SLEEP WITHOUT YOU, LIKE I LOVED YOU and MERCY.

Blending heartfelt country storytelling with the laid-back influence of his California roots, the project introduced fans to Young's signature 'Caliville' sound and provided the soundtrack to a decade of weddings, heartbreaks and unforgettable moments.

The expanded collection features nine bonus tracks, adding covers of 'Ain't Too Proud To Beg' and 'Hallelujah,' six live acoustic performances, and his original Ole Miss tribute song 'Hell Yeah Damn Right.' Inspired by the school's popular game-day chant, the former Ole Miss Rebels pitcher pays homage to his alma mater with the upbeat, anthemic track. Initially played only on campus and throughout Oxford, MS, overwhelming demand led Young to release the song, now available for the first time on vinyl.

Upon its release, the debut album earned Young widespread acclaim, with critics praising him as an 'ace songwriter' (Entertainment Weekly) and 'one of country music's most consistent radio stars' (Billboard). Spending 37 weeks inside the Top 20 on Billboard's Top Country Albums chart and spawning four consecutive No. 1 singles, the record laid the foundation for a career that now boasts more than 8.5 billion global streams, seven consecutive No. 1s and honors including ACM New Male Artist of the Year and ASCAP Country Songwriter Artist of the Year.

Beyond its commercial success, Young's self-titled album continues to resonate deeply on a global scale. The DIAMOND-certified 'In Case You Didn't Know' is a modern country wedding mainstay, fulfilling Billboard's early prediction that the track would become a timeless first-dance staple. Ten years later, that impact also remains clear in Young's live show, where fans around the world celebrate a catalog of songs that has only grown more meaningful with time. As thousands sing along to the hits that first introduced him, Young continues to make some of the biggest stages in the world feel intimate and personal.

'The success of my first album was such an exciting time,' said Young, 'I'm grateful for the way it connected with fans and I'm excited for people to hear what I've got coming next!'

Fans can catch Young live at select dates throughout the summer and fall. For upcoming dates and tickets, visit BrettYoungMusic.com.
