Eric Paslay Goes Gold

When EMI Records Nashville’s singer/songwriter Eric Paslay performed at the Grand Ole Opry last week, he got a big surprise at the end of his set. UMG Nashville Chairman & CEO, Mike Dungan, came up on stage and presented him with a gold plaque in honor of his song, "Friday Night" hitting Gold on RIAA.

While the singer/songwriter has gone to the top three times as a songwriter before now, this single was his first #1 as an artist. Written with Rose Falcon and Rob Crosby, the song is from his self-titled debut, which hit stores in February.

Eric just came off the Let it Ride tour with Brantley Gilbert and doesn't have any vacation breaks in sight. He's back on the road, playing shows and festivals all summer so there are plenty of chances to hear him perform his #1 song.
