Winning Awards and Topping the Charts

Their hit song “Tequila” stayed at No.2 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs for 19 weeks. After that, it dethroned the No. 1 song, which happened to be their own. Talk about owning two of the top songs for how many weeks!

This Duo surely knows how to captivate their fans with the music they make. Not only are they making their songs a commercial hit, but they also won their first Grammy. They won the category of Best Duo/ Group Performance among other amazing groups out there. With their first Grammy Award and their recent ACM Awards, Dan + Shay has put their own mark on the country music scene. We could only hope for more music from these two.

Congratulations Dan + Shay! Listen to one of their songs here:
