Morgan Wallen’s new single, “You Proof,” is off to a running start at country radio. 

The tune, which finds Wallen crooning over a breakup, was the most-added song at country radio this week with 52 adds on impact day and a total of 94 adds altogether.

“You Proof” is the follow-up to “Wasted On You,” Wallen’s sixth No.1 at country radio. 

Released on the East Tennessee native’s 29th birthday, “You Proof” is a heartbreak anthem that finds Wallen crooning over the need to drown his memories with a bottle of something strong.

“I need something you proof/ Somethin’ stronger than I’m used to/ Yeah, I’ve been pourin’ ninety to a hundred/ Feel like nothing’s gonna cut it, that’s the hard truth/ Yeah, I need something you proof/ Oh, I need something you proof,”  he sings. 

Co-written by Wallen alongside Ashley Gorley and ERNEST, “You Proof” was recently named one of the best songs of summer 2022 by Country Now

Already a fan favorite, there’s no doubt that “You Proof” will make its way to the top of the country radio charts in no time.

Wallen has already worked the song into his set list at his live shows. The chart-topping star is currently in the midst of his wildly successful The Dangerous Tour and has several headlining festival appearances planned throughout the rest of the summer. 

His next scheduled tour date will take place on July 29 at Watershed in Quincy, Washington. 

The Dangerous Tour is the biggest country tour of 2022 and runs through October. Joining Wallen on the tour are special guests HARDY, Lainey Wilson, Kameron Marlowe, Chase Rice, Ian Munsick, and ERNEST on select dates. 

Morgan Wallen also announced his first-ever Stadium show in Arlington, Texas, at Globe Life Field on October 8, 2022, with special guests HARDY, Mike Ryan and Jake Worthington.
