Michael Hardy, known professionally as Hardy, scored his first No. 1 single as an artist with âOne Beer,â which features Devin Dawson and Lauren Alaina. The tune ascended to the top spot on both the Billboard Country Airplay chart and Mediabase chart this week.
Penned by Hardy, Hillary Lindsey and Jake Mitchel, âOne Beerâ is the lead single from Hardyâs 2020 album, A Rock.
âI am so thankful for the writers and my label for helping me take this song all the way to number one,â says Hardy. âMy first number one as an artist means so much to me and itâs a feeling Iâll never forget.â
Before his success as a singer, Hardy earned a rep as one of Nashvilleâs hottest songwriters, having co-penned recent No. 1 singles âGodâs Countryâ (Blake Shelton), âSimpleâ (Florida Georgia Line) and âUp Downâ (Morgan Wallen). Hardy also had a hand in writing FGLâs âTalk You Out of It,â Chris Laneâs âI Donât Know About Youâ and Blake Sheltonâs âHell Right.â
