There’s no doubt that HARDY is cracking open a cold one as his single infectious single, “One Beer,” featuring Lauren Alaina and Devin Dawson, tops both the Billboard and Country Aircheck/Mediabase country radio airplay charts this week.

“I am so thankful for the writers and my label for helping me take this song all the way to #1,” HARDY shares. “My first #1 as an artist means so much to me and it’s a feeling I’ll never forget.”

Although “One Beer” marks HARDY’s first No.1 as an artist, he’s no stranger to the top of the charts. The saught after tunesmith has penned eight chart-topping singles to date, including Morgan Wallen’s “More Than My Hometown,” which hit No.1 last week.

“One Beer” is featured on HARDY’s debut album, A ROCK, which was released earlier this year.
