Brown's most recent album, "The High Road," was released a year ago and hit No. 2 on the Country Albums chart and crossed over to the Top 10 on the overall Albums chart.
It already has produced the double-platinum, No. 1 Country Airplay hit, “Miles On It (featuring Marshmello)"; the gold, No. 1 Country hit "I Can Feel It"; and the No. 2 Country hit "Backseat Driver."
Brown's first two albums went to No. 1 on the country chart, and he has had 38 gold and platinum hits in less than a decade — with 13 of them hitting No. 1.
His singles have sold a head-spinning 75 million copies.
Success through his career
Brown's recording career started with a whirlwind three years beginning with his platinum debut single “Used to Love You Sober.”
His 2016 self-titled debut disc topped the Country Albums chart, crossed over to No. 5 on Billboard’s overall Albums chart, and sold triple platinum.
Brown performed a near-sellout show at Allentown's PPL Center, which seats 10,000 people for concerts, in 2020, and had a near-sellout at Allentown Fair grandstand, which seats 10,500, in 2025.Concert history
He won three American Music Award country categories — Male Artist, Country Album and Country Song — for “Heaven,” and was nominated for the Academy of Country Music’s New Male Vocalist of the Year.
Brown’s second album, “Experiment” in 2018 charted even higher, crossing over to No. 1 on the overall Albums chart. It produced the No. 1 hits “Lose It,” which went triple platinum, and “Good As You, which sold four-times platinum.
That gave him four straight No. 1 singles.
Brown also has collaborated with artists of other genres. His song "Saturday Nights" (Remix) with Khalid sold four times platinum, and "One Thing Right" with electronic DJ Marshmello, three times platinum.
“One Thing Right” also topped the country charts.
His third album, 2022's "Different Man," sold platinum and peaked at No. 2 on the Country chart, but produced the triple platinum hit "Thank God (with Katelyn Brown)" and three No. 1 hits — "Like I Love Country Music," "One Mississippi" and "Bury Me in Georgia."
