New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Recording artist Bryce Leatherwood's "Hung Up on You" arrived at country radio today as the most-added single, with 45 stations playing it upon impact.
On the song's Sept. 6 release, Leatherwood shared, "Growing up, Country radio is what we listened to at home, so taking this one to the airwaves is a full circle moment for me. All I've ever wanted to do is make my family and everyone back home proud, and having them hear my voice on the radio is a dream come true."
Written by Brandon Lay, Jeff Middleton and Neil Medley, "Hung Up On You" metaphorically compares the intoxicating effects of love with those of alcohol, as Leatherwood delivers an upbeat anthem where the only cure for his swirling thoughts about what comes next is the continued presence of the girl he loves: Keep the shades down keep the day out
My head can't take no more pounding
Just keep your arms around me
Stay here 'til the haze clears
'Cause you got what'll get me through this
Hungover hung up on you
Leatherwood made his Grand Ole Opry debut to a standing ovation on Sept. 14, performing "Hung Up On You" and his unreleased "Shenandoah," as he continues to tease new music to come.
Leatherwood was recently featured in Boot Barn's 2024 spring campaign Taking Flight, a highlight on up-and-coming country musicians, and was also named a 2024 Artist to Watch by Music Mayhem and Country Now earlier this year.
Bryce Leatherwood is a 24-year-old singer/songwriter who aims to carry the torch of country music and continue the legacy of legends prior. Bryce was born and raised in Woodstock, GA, and his passion for music began at an early age. Working on his grandfather's farm every summer, Bryce was exposed to the classic country hits of George Jones, Merle Haggard and Conway Twitty. Soon thereafter, Bryce began picking up guitars and playing the traditional country music that still inspires him today. Bryce's music career began to blossom in Statesboro, GA, where he attended Georgia Southern University. During his time in Statesboro, Bryce played college venues and continued to hone his stage presence and his country music repertoire. In late 2021 while still enrolled in college, Bryce formed his band and began playing all around the Southeast. Bryce's goal was to take the stage and play the best of country music to all ages and audiences. After graduating college, Bryce set his mind on a new task. In 2022, he competed on the NBC hit television show The Voice and was crowned the Season 22 winner in December of 2022. Following his success on The Voice, Bryce signed with Republic Records / Universal Music Group Nashville and is currently hard at work on new music.
