FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE BRING “SMOOTH” VIBES TO MULTIPLE TELEVISION NETWORKS AUGUST 16
MULTI-PLATINUM selling superstar duo FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE will bring their “Smooth” vibes across multiple television networks with back-to-back appearances next Wednesday (8/16), introducing their brand new single on both ABC’s CMA FEST: THE MUSICAL EVENT OF THE SUMMER (8 p.m. ET) and NBC’s LATE NIGHT WITH SETH MEYERS (12:35 a.m. ET). Taking over the night, the duo will also join Meyers for a desk-side chat.
FGL’s Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard penned “Smooth” alongside Nicolle Galyon and Jordan Schmidt, complementing their massively successful DIG YOUR ROOTS album. They are the only Country act since August 2016 to notch a PLATINUM album with three separate PLATINUM songs – consecutive chart-toppers “God, Your Mama, And Me,” “May We All,” and “H.O.L.Y.” (2x PLATINUM) – and one of only three to earn PLATINUM recognition for an album released in the last year. The feat adds to FGL’s already-impressive precious metal collection as all three of their full-length albums have now reached PLATINUM status or better.
FGL will keep the bases loaded this Saturday (8/12) as THE SMOOTH TOUR 2017 steps up to the plate at Chicago’s historic Wrigley Field. Each of the duo’s three headlining stadium sets (the first of their career) has SOLD OUT as the genre-defying phenoms share their stage with Pop idols Backstreet Boys, Hip-Hop icon Nelly and breakout Country star Chris Lane.
THE SMOOTH TOUR 2017 will roll on with Nelly and Lane – plus Ryan Hurd, Morgan Wallen, and Russell Dickerson on select dates – wrapping with a two-night stand in Atlanta’s Verizon Amphitheater October 20 – 21.

About Florida Georgia Line:
FGL’s PLATINUM-certified musical evolution, DIG YOUR ROOTS, propelled the history-making duo to #1 on the all-genre Billboard Artist 100 and Country Albums charts. Continuing the epic momentum, the album has delivered three consecutive #1 smashes - the 3X PLATINUM-certified lead single “H.O.L.Y.” [#1 on Billboard's Hot Country Songs chart for 18 straight weeks] and PLATINUM-certified hits “May We All” (featuring Tim McGraw) and “God, Your Mama, And Me” (featuring Backstreet Boys) [13th #1 overall as artists]. Following a landmark DIG YOUR ROOTS TOUR that broke attendance records and played to over one million featuring headline-grabbing guest appearances, FGL is currently on THE SMOOTH TOUR 2017. Bursting with first-rate reviews of their explosive live shows, MusicRow Magazine praised, "Just in case you’ve forgotten, Florida Georgia Line is one of the hottest country acts alive.” The superstar duo continues to crush records as the first and only Country act to achieve RIAA’s DIAMOND certification (10 million copies sold) for their breakout smash “Cruise,” which is the best-selling digital country single of all time (SoundScan). Since their breakout in 2012, FGL has earned prestigious honors from the AMA, ACM Awards, CMA Awards, Billboard Music Awards and CMT Music Awards. Their previous BMLG Records releases – 2X PLATINUM debut HERE’S TO THE GOOD TIMES and PLATINUM ANYTHING GOES – have attributed to sales surpassing 29 million tracks and more than 3.5 million albums worldwide. FGL will spread good vibes to sports fans each week during the 2017 NFL season as they’re featured alongside Hank Williams Jr. and Jason Derulo in “All My Rowdy Friends Are Coming Over Monday Night” during Monday Night Football on ESPN. Fueled by fresh inspiration and keen entrepreneurial spirit, they’ve launched publishing company Tree Vibez Music and their own emoji app, FGLmoji. Following the introduction of their Old Camp Pecan Whiskey, their premiere restaurant and entertainment destination FGL HOUSE, a four-story attraction with the largest “Cruise” rooftop Nashville has to offer, is now open.
