Blake Shelton’s new single, “Happy Anywhere,” featuring Gwen Stefani, debuted at No. 20 on the Billboard Country Airplay chart. Penned by Ross Copperman, Josh Osborne and Matt Jenkins, “Happy Anywhere” also skyrocketed to No. 1 on the iTunes all-genre chart after its release on July 24.

Like his most recent multi-week No. 1 single, “Nobody But You,” which topped the charts in April/May 2020, “Happy Anywhere” features vocals from girlfriend Gwen Stefani.

Directed by Todd Stefani, the feel-good video for the new tune includes footage of Blake and Gwen spending quality time in their homes in Oklahoma and California.

“As I’ve said, ‘Happy Anywhere’ feels like the perfect song for right now,” Blake says. “I’m proud to see that fans feel the same way about it that Gwen and I do. Thanks everyone for listening to the song, watching the video and coming to the drive-in. Most importantly, thanks for letting me do what I love the most—sing country music.”

Blake headlined a one-night-only concert event, which was filmed exclusively for drive-in theaters across North America, on July 25.
