Dustin Lynch Scores Sixth No. 1 Single With “Good Girl”

by Jim Casey | @TheJimCasey | January 14, 2019

With the release of “Good Girl” in May 2018, Dustin Lynch took a hiatus from his 2017 album, Current Mood, which spawned No. 1 hits “Seein’ Red” and “Small Town Boy.”

The move paid off. “Good Girl” is No. 1 on both the Billboard Country Airplay chart and Mediabase chart this week. Co-written by Dustin, Justin Ebach and Andy Albert, “Good Girl” was a song that Dustin felt was timely for the summer season and he wanted to get it on airwaves before the release of his next album.

“I’ve never started the year with a number one song, and I’ve got to say, this feels really good,” says Dustin. “I moved to town with the dream of writing songs and singing onstage, and finally the stars aligned, and everything worked out. I’ve learned the lesson of perseverance, of hard work and continuing to hone your craft.”

Dustin will make his UK debut at C2C in March. He will join both Thomas Rhett’s Life Changes Tour and Very Hot Summer Tour in April and May, respectively.
