Self-professed beach bum Billy Currington is enjoying summertime even more today with the news that his single, “Do I Make You Wanna,” is No. 1 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart.

Following “Don’t It” and “It Don’t Hurt Like It Used To,” “Do I Make You Wanna” is the third single from Billy’s 2016 album, Summer Forever, to reach No. 1. The tune also marks Billy’s 12th career No. 1 single.

“Summer Forever is the album that keeps on giving,” said Billy. “Having the song ‘Do I Make You Wanna’ become my 12th No. 1 hit is beyond gratifying and so rewarding. I want to thank my team, my label, my co-writers, country radio and most of all you, my fans. This could have never happened without the fans, so a deep-felt thank you to all of you.

Billy is currently on the road for his headlining Stay Up ’Til the Sun Tour through August.
