Cole Swindell Celebrates Three No. 1 Singles With Nashville Pub Crawl

Cole Swindell has kept himself busy in the last couple years, releasing two full-length albums, road-tripping with some of country’s greatest tours and writing songs both for him as well as other artists. Along the way he has had five singles reach the top of the country music charts and on Monday afternoon he took a day off in Nashville to celebrate.

Swindell and his team threw a party for the success of “Hope You Get Lonely Tonight,” “Ain’t Worth the Whiskey” and “Let Me See Ya Girl.”

“When we moved to town dreamed of getting one of these plaques or seeing the signs on music row,” Swindell told Sounds Like Nashville and other media. “When you got to wait a second to get it, it’s going to be worth it and a cool day. You can’t find anything to complain about when you’re celebrating a number one song.”

Since there were three tracks to recognize, the party extended over three of Music City’s finest bars including South, Dawg House and Tin Roof. Nothing like an old fashioned pub crawl to laud a country music feat.

These No. 1 events are not only to honor the artist’s who perform them, but also the writers who penned them. In total, the “Middle of a Memory” singer has had five singles in a row earn this honor. In Swindell’s case, he was both a writer and performer on all of them and he knows he wouldn’t be able to sing his hits to thousands of fans on the road every night if he wasn’t surrounded by his talented cowriters.

“Although I am a cowriter on all these songs I get a lot of credit out on the road for being the artist. I came up being the songwriter and that’s what these parties are for,” he continued. “These are all songs that got me to those five in a row. I get plenty of recognition out there and this is about them knowing that I couldn’t do it without them.”

Swindell started off as a songwriter, penning hot singles for Florida Georgia Line, Luke Bryan and Thomas Rhett just to name a few. He understands how much a song can do for someone, not just as a fan listening, but for an artist, too.

“The power of music is real,” he addressed to the crowd as he was accepting praises. “I learned really quick, a song, it can take you there. When I say I’m living the dream, I don’t know how it could get any better. Now let’s keep writing songs and touching people. But not in a weird way.”
