GABBY BARRETT TOPS BANNER YEAR

Gabby Barrett “has had one of the most recognizable faces in country,” deems Variety, as Warner Music Nashville’s MULTI-PLATINUM star closes another monumental year on top.

Reigning Billboard’s Top Country Artists – Female year-end chart at #1, she’s also the only Country artist to appear on all-genre Top Artists – Female at #10. The #4 Top Country Artist, hits at #3 on Hot Country Songs Artists and #6 on all-genre Adult Contemporary Artists. Barrett’s breakout hits rule too with “I Hope” (feat. Charlie Puth) at #3 on all-genre Adult Contemporary Songs and her debut version #3 on Hot Country Songs, plus “The Good Ones” at #31 and #6 respectively.

High-flying on the Mediabase year-end charts as well, Barrett scores #5 among all-genre Most Played Artists at AC. “The Good Ones” makes her the only female artist inside the Top 20 most-played Country songs at #10. With two spotlights on all-genre AC, “I Hope” (feat. Charlie Puth) notches #3 while “The Good Ones” is #37, alongside all-genre Hot AC at #10 with “I Hope” (feat. Charlie Puth). Likewise, she rounds out as the #2 most-played Top Female at Country Aircheck/Mediabase.

Continuing the gold rush of accolades, she was just named Top Female Artist-Songwriter (Sony Music Publishing) by the National Music Publishers' Association’s Gold & Platinum Program with five certifications for “I Hope” and “The Good Ones.” In addition, Country Now awarded Barrett Favorite Female Empowerment Anthem for her most recent single, “Footprints on the Moon,” during the fan-voted 2021 Country Now Awards. In February 2022, she’s also set to appear among the top five New Faces of Country Music after being chosen by the members of Country Radio Broadcasters for the elite show at Country Radio Seminar (CRS) 2022 in Nashville, TN.

Toasting to a record-breaking 2021, Barrett will count down until midnight with a performance off her award-winning, GOLD debut, GOLDMINE, during CBS’ five-hour special, New Year's Eve Live: Nashville's Big Bash, on December 31.
