Delivering a high-octane level of performance that is unmatched in the world of Country music, FGL showed exactly why they’ve been called “one of the hottest Country acts alive” by MusicRow Magazine.

The history-making duo dominated the charts in 2016 with their 2X PLATINUM No. 1 smash-hit “H.O.L.Y.” – which sat on top of the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart for an astonishing 18 weeks. Their hopeful GOLD-certified anthem, “May We All” (featuring Tim McGraw) marks their 12th No. 1 overall, while their newly released knockout “God, Your Mama, And Me” (featuring Backstreet Boys) is climbing the charts.
Since introducing their breakout vibes in 2012, FGL has earned prestigious honors from the AMA, ACM Awards, CMA Awards, Billboard Music Awards and CMT. Their previous BMLG Records releases – 2X PLATINUM debut HERE’S TO THE GOOD TIMES and PLATINUM ANYTHING GOES – have attributed to sales surpassing 26 million tracks and more than 3.5 million albums worldwide. With their massive debut, FGL’s “Cruise” is the only Country single to ever be certified DIAMOND for sales exceeding 10 million copies and overtook the record for longest No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart.

About Laura Lou
JournalistBeginning about age 13, music always been my “safe place”, my “escape”, it became a part of who I am. My background includes being a photographer/journalist for newspapers, magazines and radio stations and more recently I have been an artist manager. What I continue to strive to learn is, what is important to the fans/readers? I find that the answer is always that they want to feel close to the artist they are supporting. The human contact that we all need is something that I want to deliver to anyone that happens to read something I write or see a photograph I shoot. It is important to me to provide that experience, because I am, after all, still always a “fan” and that giddy 13-year-old girl is simply amazed! I never imagined that my passion and love for music would lead me where I am today! I use the hashtag #iamtheluckiestgirliknow because I cannot believe how blessed I am! I’m excited to see “what happens next” and take you all along with me! This is going to be amazing…
