Listen to Colton Dixon's “Build A Boat (feat. Gabby Barrett)” here. Appearing at the Warner Music Nashville Luncheon during Country Radio Seminar 2023, her label team further stunned Barrett onstage with a presentation of two career plaques with fresh RIAA certifications, as her latest single “Pick Me Up” is PLATINUM and mega breakout “I Hope” is 7X PLATINUM.
“Thank you guys very, very much from the bottom of my heart,” shared Barrett onstage. “Thank you, I mean that from the biggest part of me because this would definitely not be possible without everybody in this room. We're coming hard with new music very soon, so thank y'all very much. God bless you.”
